CA - Year End 2011

[felipegrandi]

Dear Community,

Development team is already working in the Legal Changes for Year End 2011. Soon a master note must be delivered with information that you can use to plan your system update. Once the note is available we will let you know through this thread.

In order to be up to date with the lastest Year End deliveries please use the function "Watch this Thread", so everytime this thread is updated you will receive an automatic e-mail advising about the change.

Kind regards,

I have posted my requirement on a separate post and reporting it here again:

http://scn.sap.com/thread/3589108

My requirement is to print the active employee through portal and the inactive ones through spool.

I am looking for SAP's standard solution for this requirement rather than custom reports.

The employees on ESS should be able to see their latest T4 (which may be the amendments) only and not their previous T4s.

I believe there is an OSS note for this requirement but I am not able to find it!

Dear SAP,

Are there any mid-year tax changes coming? If so when should we expect them.

BASE MID YEAR LEGAL CHANGE levels doesn't seem to have anything specific to mid-year.

CLC 81 for SAP_HRCCA 6.00

CLC 55 for EA-HRCCA 603

thanks

Sharath

[felipegrandi]

Hello Sharath,

Yes, there is. This morning our development team released the Mid Year note:

1710052 - TAX: Legal Changes for Mid-Year 2012

Kind regards,

Felipe

[former_member193210]

If I remember correctly, there have been Mid-Year Legal Changes for the past few years, and the Mid-Year Note is usually available by mid-June.

There is still no information posted on the Canada Mid-Year 2012 web page (https://websmp201.sap-ag.de/hrcanada), but it will probably be updated before the end of May.

hi Felipe/Karthik,

We hear there is new tax rule on sickness and AD&D benefits effective Mar 29th 2012. Would SAP be delivering these changes? if so what timelines can we expect?

[former_member193210]

If it is for 2013 coverage, as mentioned in the article, then I would expect SAP to provide the changes by December 2012 (in the next Year-End Transports).

Hi,

I have applied the manual note 1674609 but the u2018Typing Methodu2019 column of the Component tab does not exist in our version of SAP so I could not add the Typing Method = Types. We have version 6.04.

Am I missing something?

Hello,

We are not able to get the new 2011 approval number, RC-11-594, delivered with 1659721 to appear on the T4.

Per note's instructons, after we applied 1659721, we put in the delta transports from 1658938 released on 12/15/2011 and we're still seeing the previous year's approval number.

Has anyone been successful in getting new approval number on the T4?

[felipegrandi]

Hello imcherie,

Regarding your query, approval numbers for RL1 forms are not yet available. If you refer RL1 section will see stated there:

"Approval number for 2011 is still pending. Form currently still has previous year's approval number."

Hence the form still has the approval number from 2010. Once the approval number is provided by MRQ an additional note will be released. Hope it clarifies.

Kind regards,

Felipe

[former_member182083]

Hello,

@ Sharath : The note 1672646 - RL1 is Letter size at present.

Has anyone been able to download or have a copy of the MRQ XML Schema for Quebec?

This is holding up our testing.

The link to the to it on the CAN YE website doesn't work.

[felipegrandi]

Hello All,

I have tried to download the schemas from SMP with a customer kind user and was able to. For those who are experiencing issues when downloading the files please call CIC and check the user authorizations with them. The phone numbers for each region can be found through note 560499.

Kind regards.

HI;

We run a test MRQ XML file and getting this error

"Specify field Bank Number with length 09

Message no. AR102"

I have not seen the bank number anywhere on this program.(RPCYERK3_MRQ_XML)

Any idea why this error ?

Thanks

[Former Member]

Hi ;

Were you able to get the XML schema ? If not let me know i can send you one. Thanks

[Former Member]

Hi Felipe/Karthik,

Could you please confirm the RL-1 being released through the note 1672646 is Letter size or Legal size?

thanks

Sharath

[felipegrandi]

Hello Vivian, imcherie and all,

We are currently experiencing some issues with SMP, which also affect notes searching and messages logging. It's expected to have a solution this Friday. In case you have some urgent topic with SAP and are unable to access it please call CIC meantime.

I would like to put to the community to see if anyone is experieincing the same scenario as we do:

We have employees have 2 T4's generated under 2 different Business Numbers'. This is the case when we have an employees transferred from one company code to an other company code within our organization. It appears that the first T4 generated has been correctly capped at the C/QPP earning max. However, the 2nd T4 generated has not had the Max cap applied.

I am going to post a message to SAP but am curious if there is anyone else experience the same issue.

Thanks,

Vivian

We are on 6.00 (EhP 0) and are not using Concurrent Employment, but we have employees with multiple PERNRs (such as a teacher at 75% FTE who works as a casual supply teacher or as a casual teacher's aid in her/his off time, when required).

We also have problems with Boxes 24 and 26 of the T4s for employees who have more than one PERNR in the same Business Number and Account Number (eg. 123456789 RP0001).

Example of current output after the Year-End Note, the Delta Note, and Note 1662043:

Employee # 1234 T4 Box 14 = 44 448.52 Box 24 = 44 200.00 Box 26 = 44 448.52

Employee # 2345 T4 Box 14 = 8 310.32 Box 24 = 8 310.32 Box 26 = 8 310.32

Employee # 3456 T4 Box 14 = 1 109.82 Box 24 = 1 109.82 Box 26 = 1 109.82

According to Revenu Canada, the results should be:

Employee # 1234 T4 Box 14 = 44 448.52 Box 24 = 44 200.00 Box 26 = 44 448.52

Employee # 2345 T4 Box 14 = 8 310.32 Box 24 = 0.00 Box 26 = 3 851.48

Employee # 3456 T4 Box 14 = 1 109.82 Box 24 = 0.00 Box 26 = 0.00

We will also be logging it with SAP shortly.

Edited by: Rémi Corriveau on Jan 11, 2012 5:47 PM

The problem also happens when the employee has PERNRs in the same Business Number (eg. 123456789) but in different Account Numbers (RP0001 and RP0002), and this scenario happens even more often.

[Former Member]

Hi Vivian,

We are facing the same issue and I had already opened a note with SAP. SAP's response is.. they have given it to their development team.

I will update this forum, once I get an update from SAP about the fix.

Thanks

[felipegrandi]

Dear Community,

Regarding the links for MRQ schemas, development team has reset the links and they should be working now. I had an incident with a customer and today they were able to download the files. Please try again. In case of failure please let me know.

Hi Felipe,

I have not seen a response regarding the question posted by Ranjit, Vivian and Remi about the Box 24 and 26 values that tax reporter is displaying for ee's with multiple tax statements.

Please look into this as a high priority. A note has been open with SAP (10040 / 2012) for over a week with no response.

Thanks!

Can I please ask the community if anyone is still observing the following issues:

EXAMPLE 1

EE in 2 business numbers (different legal entities), same province (QC), hence receiving 2 T4's. The ee is not EI/CPP/QPP exempt for any portion of the year:

1st BN:

B14 = 33946.47

B24 = 33853.86

B26 = 34823.90

2nd BN:

B14 = 51991.19

B24 = 0 (Note : /122 of 51980.90)

B24 = 0 (note : /121 of 52088.68)

EXAMPLE 2

EE in 2 business numbers (different legal entities), same province (ON), hence receiving 2 T4's. The ee is not EI/CPP exempt for any portion of the year:

1st BN:

B14 = 21558.89

B24 = 21120.02

B26 = 21558.89

2nd BN

B14 = 247950.37

B24 = 0 (Note : /122 of 241259.07)

B26 = 247950.37 (Note = /120 of 247950.37)

My research shows that in both examples, the max value for B24 (44200) should be showing, as well as the max value for B26 (48300) should also show on the ee's 2nd T4.

According to the CRA guide for filing T4, I observe the following comments regarding B24 and B26:

Begin Quote

Box 24 - EI insurable earnings

Starting in January 2012 (for the 2011 tax year), box 24 must always be completed. Enter the total amount you used to calculate the employee's EI premiums, up to the maximum insurable earnings for the year ($44,200 for 2011). Do not include the unpaid portion of any earnings from insurable employment that you did not pay because of your bankruptcy, receivership, or non-payment of remuneration for which the employee has filed a complaint with the federal, provincial, or territorial labour authorities.

Enter u201C0u201D if there are no insurable earnings. For exempt employment, enter u201C0u201D and see Box 28 - Exempt (CPP/QPP, EI, and PPIP.

When the same employer issues more than one T4 slip to an employee, the employer should report the insurable earnings amount for each period of employment in box 24 of each T4 slip. Reporting these amounts will reduce unnecessary pensionable and insurable earnings review (PIER) reports for EI deficiency calculations, especially if the employee worked both inside and outside of Quebec.

For example, an employee has two T4 slips from the same employer. He earned $25,000 working in Ontario from January 2011 to June 2011. He then earned $25,000 working in Quebec for the remainder of the year. The T4 slip for Ontario will report $25,000 in box 14 (u201CEmployment incomeu201D) and $25,000 in box 24 (u201CEI insurable earningsu201D). The T4 slip for Quebec will report $25,000 in box 14 and $19,200 in box 24 (maximum insurable earnings for 2011 of $44,200 u2013 $25,000 already reported on T4 slip with Ontario as province of employment = $19,200).

Box 26 - CPP/QPP pensionable earnings

Starting in January 2012 (for the 2011 tax year), box 26 must always be completed. In most cases, boxes 14 and 26 should be the same amount. You have to complete the box in all situations, up to the maximum pensionable earnings for the year ($48,300 for 2011).

If there are no pensionable earnings, enter u201C0u201D in box 26. For exempt employment, enter u201C0u201D and see box 28.

If anyone has any feedback or solution to the issue, please advise. It would be greatly appreciated.

I am still waiting for the SAP responses on the fix.

Fortunately we do not use SAP to print the tax form, we have our own custom program to extract the tax data from PCL4 and then sent for printing. With our custom program, we added the logic to check for the maximums for Box 24 and Box 26.

however, I do like to see SAP solution to get these boxes corrected.

Vivian

[former_member193210]

Have you applied the Delta and Note 1662043 yet?

That last Note would solve one problem, and you could probably also apply Notes 1647048, 1667137 and 1673638 (see Master YE Note 1628091), but you'd still have problems with employees who have multiple PERNRs.

We are still waiting for SAP to make the appropriate corrections (OSS Message # 35641/2012).

[Former Member]

Hi there,

I would also like to bring to the forum that the RL1 totals is not correct, in my case:

The employee has the same business number, however has 2 Rel1due to transfer

When we add up the 2 Box "G" you get $48,635.50 .. The annual Max is $48,300.00. This is incorrect.

We also just noticed something with the printed form...all the Graphic info prints upside down -the form # and name and the Quebec Logo

Vivian

[Former Member]

Just to keep the community informed :

SAP has advised that a note will be forthcoming to correct the B24/26 issues for ee's with multiple T4's. Note number will be 1675854, but has not been released to the public yet. I am hoping to see the release of this note today.

- Sean

[former_member193210]

Hello Vivian,

You should log the problem with Box G of the Relevé 1 with SAP since Note 1675854 (mentioned by Sean) could address only the problem with Boxes 24 and 26 of the T4.

P.S. : We don't issue any RLs (nor do any reporting to Québec).

[former_member193210]

Hello Vivian, Felipe, Sean and Ranjit,

We have received a reply by SAP saying that since we did not enable "Concurrent Employment", there is nothing that they can do.

Yet, the person who answered did not seem to be aware that IT0031 has been used to link the employees' different PERNRs for over 10 years, and that even if the Payroll Results are separate, a reporting program such as RPCYERK0 should be able respond to the requirements of Revenu Canada Agency.

[Former Member]

Thanks Remi.

Just curious if you have tested the note 1675854 in your system. We noticed the results we got after the note are not consistent. If we run the employee # on it's own, the reporting amounts are correct; however, at times we run with a small group, then the employee's result is not correct (box 24 and box 26) and again we run with a all the employee base, we got the result correct. We are trying to dig into the code to see but I don't know how to report back to SAP..

Vivian

[Former Member]

Hi Vivian,

After import of note 1675854 I do not see the issue you are speaking of. If I run for 1 ee or 75 ee's the results look consistent. Can you elaborate a little bit about the type of inconsistency you are observing , and the number of ee's you are running tax reporter on? Does the trouble population change registration numbers mid year or province?

- Sean

[Former Member]

At the moment I don't have ths solid observation as to when the inconsistency behaviour is happening.

My user did the testing and reported back the the fix is working for some and not all and as I verified the employees with my fresh runs of the tax reporting program, the results returned for the 2 boxes are fine. However, when we run with the complete employee base in our QA box, we do see some employees are not reported properly. Our first guess is that the the root of the BN number is not being looked up properly, this is yet to be confirmed by our programmer. I will try update this forum once I know more.

1 - Sean mentioned that he has imported Note 1675854, but that Note is inaccessible. I keep getting the message "The requested SAP Note is either in reworking or is released internally only".

2 - If you noticed that the object number dissapears after a measure in OM, that's because you imported an earlier version of Note 1556855 when you applied your patches. We imported ours in early November but it was version 1 that was included in the Service Pack. SAP's answer to our OSS Message (# 71770/2012) was to reapply the Note since it's content had been modified in a later version.

3 - Regarding Boxes 24 and 26 of the T4s, SAP told us that since we are not on Concurrent Employment, there is nothing they can do for employees with multiple PERNRs. Our fall-back solution will be to create Year-End Adjustments to adjust the amount for those boxes (through special WTs). For next year, we'll create special WTs for IT0015 to adjust the amounts of /120 and /122 (and therefore automatically adjust the contributions).

[Former Member]

Hi Vivian,

After further research, we are seeing the same thing. If we run one ee, the results are correct, but if we run with a group of ee's, the B24 and B26 values are not showing correctly.

Have you opened a note with SAP on this?

- Sean

[Former Member]

I did add the information to my already opened message with SAP on the day I discovered the issue, nothing has come back yet from SAP.

Unfortunately we do not have the luxury of time so we had built some logic in our custom program to correct the problem. We finalized and reconciled our tax forms and ready for printing at this point. We have a deadline by Feb 1st in our shop to send the file to 3rd party vendor as well as an internal printing, we simply cannot wait for yet another fix from SAP.

We were advised by SAP to de-implement and reimplenent this new verios of the note. If you search teh SAP site for the note number, you should be able to see it.

SAP has not updated the Year End 2011 page with this note as of 10 AM EST Feb 1st.

Thank you S. Karthik. What I am curious about though is how do I know what tables we need to cascade from the Canada Year End notes? Also - what about that error that the form could not be imported successfully when transporting the L6DK165855 from dev to our QA system? I used SE71 to copy the 2011 forms from client 000 and sent that transport to the QA system prior to sending L6DK165855 to QA but still get the error.

Thanks again for the help,

After applying the base support pack do we just need to apply the following notes to get all changes for year end now that the Delta has been delivered? Just want to be clear.

1663369 - TAX : Additional changes effective Jan 1, 2012

1659721 - YE11: Delta Form and XML changes for Year End 2011

1658938 - YE11 : Delivery of Year End Transports for 2011

1656953 - TAX: Legal changes effective January 1, 2012

I ask because in the main year end note it mentions the notes 1609069, 1630315, & 1605354 which are already contained in the base HRSP 91 for our 5.0 system so I thought those would have already been applied right?

If someone could send detailed steps of notes in the order they put them in after the base HRSP was applied it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Jeff

Hello Jeff,

All the notes related to the Year End are being updated in Master Note 1628091. In case some of the notes are already included in your base HRSP there's no need to apply it again. There's not a specific order to apply the notes. The only pre-requisite so far is that all year end notes must be applied first to apply the delta transports, delivered in note 1658938. It's described into the note.

Kind regards.

Felipe

Hi Jasmine & All,

Development team is already working on this. In case a note is delivered related to this footnote it will be published in Service MarketPlace and also here.

Thank you for the links, Remi. The Revenue Quebec link isn't available in English, but just looking I still don't see a schema available.

Felipe, SAP has provided the schema to itu2019s clients in prior years. Is it available yet and if so where can I download it? Without the schema, we are not able to create the RL-1 XML file for submission.

[Former Member]

hi Felipe,

Our business is also waiting for testing RL1 XML Schema, it'll be helpful if you could direct us to the same.

Thanks

After applying the year end notes including the Delta there was a program we ran last year in order to copy the T4 and T4A from 2010 to 2011, does anyone recall that program name?

Thank you,

Thanks Sharath PYKT works.

Another question - when the L6DK165855 transport states to import into client 000 and then "cascade" it to the other clients do them mean to just transport the changes or do you somehow need to use SCMP in order to compare the actual tables in client 000 to the customizing client? I am noticing that for one the new forms are missing for year 2011 in SE71. Is this a step by step thing that needs to be done or is there some type of utility program that helps you to "cascade" these L6DK transports?

Update: I used SE71 to copy the new 2011 T4 & T4A forms from client 000 and then transported that prior to L6DK165855, then tried to re-transport L6DK165855 but received the same errors - "Object Form HR_CDN_T411_SS has not yet been imported successfully". What am I doing wrong - the forms exist in SE71 in the client we are transporting to.

Thanks again,

Jeff

'Morning SAPers,

I will open a message for this but wanted to cross-post it here.

We applied note 1662043 yesterday in our DEV environment, and have been doing some testing.

With a "board member" employee, whose entire income (B14) is not EI insurable, we have found that B24 has not been created.

In the RC4120 guide (page 11), in this type of scenario, if the employee is exempt, or the insurable earnings are zero, it must produce a zero in B24.

This is also true for pensionable earnings (B26).

Pls advise.

Thanks

Hello,

As the Labour sponsored funds for ON and NT have been discontinued for 2012, the tax calcualtion formula in the SAP standard system has been modified accordingly. This is delivered through the tax engine RPCTX0KF (refer note 1656953 ). Other than this there is no other change in Tax engine..

Note 1662043 - YE10: T4 Box 24 and 26 showing zero adjusted amounts, has document attached which explains various scenario how the Box 24 and Box 26 will be filled.

Hello,

Within the Year End 2011 Tax note 1656953, there is mention of a new tax engine and some manual steps to create a couple of programs for it. How do I know what the tax engine impacts? Does it impact all taxes, or just the LCP credit for Ontario and Northwest Territories, which are specifically mentioned in the note?

I am new to HR Year End and any information will be helpful here.

Thanks,

Leslie

[former_member193210]

If I read the Note correctly, it does impact only Ontario and the NorthWest Territories.

Be aware that SAP has released Note 1662043 "Year End 2011:T4 Box 24 and 26 Showing Zero Adjusted Amounts"

as mentioned on the Y-E 2011 page of http://service.sap.com/hrcanada

[SusanStevenson]

Note 1605354 Version 2 states "Although this note contains correction instructions, it also contains additional changes that cannot be implemented by SNOTE. To obtain the complete changes apply the HRSP indicated...."

We are on 604 - 40 but the Support Package reference section of the note indicates SP 41.

Do we have to apply SP 41 to have correct Quebec tax levy processing?

[felipegrandi]

Hi Susan,

Yes, you need to apply SP 41 in your case to be compliant.

Hi Felipe Grandi

Today BSI released Regulatory Bulletin #47. When do you think SAP will release relevant Note/corrections for that. Please let me know.

Thanks

Muru

[felipegrandi]

Hi Muru,

Please take in account this thread is related to Canadian Year End, not US topics.

Anyway, answering your query, SAP needs at least two working days to create a note for each TUB delivered by BSI. Please follow the link http://service.sap.com/tubs in order to know when the TUB is released.

Kind regards,

Felipe

Hello All,

Today development team released a note with corrections for the new processing of CPP deductions delivered via Note 1630315. The note is:

1644067  CPP: Additional Changes to CPP calculation

Regards,

Felipe

[former_member193210]

Thanks Filipe.

I had mentioned that note back in November 16 but it was "unavailable" then, and it was re-released on November 21st.

It would be nice if the Development Team could update service.sap.com/hrcanada (or the canadian year-end page).

Edited by: Rémi Corriveau on Nov 29, 2011 9:48 PM

P.S. Are they waiting for December 1st when they'll make the Year-End Note available ?

[felipegrandi]

Hello Rémi,

That's correct. The note was taken back to be reworked and then released again. Thanks for your observation.

Regarding December 1st transports, they are under development. A note is already being prepared and must be released very soon. Once it happen I let all of you know.

Kind regards,

Felipe

Hello All,

Some customers have reported issues with the new field 'Province of Health Tax' delivered by note 1609069. According to the note this field is hidden as standard and could be enabled by changing the Customizing in V_T588M. However once the note is applied the field is visible in the screen. In such cases what happen is that the changes delivered for V_T588M should be transported for all productive clients, not only applied to client 000.

However after applying note 1609069, even that the changes were transported for the productive clients, in Overview screen (3000) the field is still visible. For this case development team has released the following note:

1652841  EHT: 'Province of Health Tax' not hidable in overview screen

With regards,

Felipe

[former_member193210]

Hello Filipe,

Please check Note 1652841 because it no longer shows the reference to the correction instructions (L7DK184036), so we can't apply them.

Edited by: Rémi Corriveau on Nov 24, 2011 3:35 PM

And yet, and the Note still indicates that it's Version 1.

[felipegrandi]

Hello Rémi,

I have checked the note and the corrections are there. They are just not showing in the note's main screen. According to the note:

>>> A T T E N T I O N: P L E A S E N O T E: <<<

>>> Correction contains additional changes that are NOT shown here <<<

>>> Display all changes by Note Assistant Note display functionality <<<

Have questions with regards to note 1605354 QC Tax Levy

1. We noticed that /166 is being calculated for other provinces other than QC, should this be happening?

2. Should wage type /45S QC/Employment stds. levy always be calculated in payroll for QC employees? i.e. whenever there is an /166, there should be /45S?

3. what is the calculation rule for wage type /139? We noticed for some employees, we see that /152 is the amount of /166 less /139

We are in the mist of testing these notes hoping to move the SP's to Production in 2 weeks. I'd appreciate if you can get back to me with regards to the above as soon as possible. There isn't enough information in the note to clarify the above.

Thank you so much for your assistance!!

Hi Vivian,

Hello All,

We have seen some queries about note 1630315 (CPP:Changes to CPP calculation effective 01.01.2012).

The changes delivered by this note were made in YE base CLC which is mandatory for YE 2011. The changes are effective by 2012 but customers can apply the note now with no problems. The note has a date check to make sure this will be only effective from 01.01.2012. Up to end of 2011 the existing calculation remains.

Kind regards.

The new requirement for T4 to include EI Insurable Earnings in Box 24 for the year 2011. Is this going to be inlcuded in HRSP 40?

[former_member193210]

If I am not mistaken, all year-end configuration should be included in the Year-End Note that will be released on December 1st.

Actually, that note usually consists of 2 transports (a Workbench and a Customizing).

If some changes can't be delivered for that date, a set of Delta Transports should be delivered by mid-december (and additional Notes thereafter).

[former_member193210]

According to a thread posted on ASUG, Note 1630315 states that the CPP change is effective Jan. 1st 2012 but would contain an error for pays caculating retroactively back in 2011 (from 2012).

One user mentioned that Note 1644067 corrects the problem, but that Note currently displays the following message:

"The requested SAP Note is either in reworking or is released internally only".

Edited by: Rémi Corriveau on Nov 17, 2011 6:25 PM GMT

P.S. : We are on ERP 6.0 (EhP0) and have applied HRSPs up to SAPKE60074, but do not experience the CPP Deduction problem in 2011 (wether we force retro-calculation from 2011 to 2011 or from 2012 to 2011).

Hi,

This is a question related to note # 1605354 TAX : New Processing for Quebec Tax Levy

I would like to understand this update with further clarification as to what are the wagetypes/ benefits that are going to be cumulated in /166, I understand that these are the benefits that are taxable to the ER as per the employment standards in Quebec. Looking for some examples of these benefits.

Also, will all EE in Quebec be in this perview?

Hope I have been able to clearly state my question.

Thanks in advance for helping with this.

Papri

[felipegrandi]

Hello Papri,

Please look at the note 1605354's excerpt below:

All the wage types that are cumulating currently to wage types /152,
/153, /158, /160 will cumulate to /166 also. So now the new wage type
has all the amounts that are currently subjected to the Employer Tax
Levy.

It means that wage types /152, /153, /158, /160 are going to cumulate into /166. If you have wage types cumulating into /152, /153, /158, /160 these amounts will at the end be cumulated also into /166. And yes, this change refers for Quebec EEs.

Kind regards.

First, your employer must join America's SAP User's Group (ASUG) and pay the annual membership fee.

Then, as one of their employees, you go to ASUG's website (http://www.asug.com) and find the "Join ASUG Now" hyperlink in the upper right corner of the screen.
