EI Adjustments

The EI Adjustments module is designed to allow for entry of present or prior period adjustments to be created. Future period EI adjustments are only allowed when activated by 'Allow Future EI Insurable Entries' field in the User Specific Parameters profile. These adjustment records are picked up during the payroll run for the period they were created in. The payroll system calculates the adjustment and generates any necessary EI variable deduction. The EI records will not reflect these changes until a payroll update for that period has been done. This process also allows access to EI Timesheet and EI Prior/Future Period entries for display only.

The pay period entered here determines which pay period any added EI adjustments will be processed in. When you are modifying the distribution of a previously entered EI timesheet, prior timesheet, or future timesheet, enter the pay period that the timesheet will be processed under.
