Hi denis.lavergne,

 

Thanks for reaching out here.  QuickBooks Online Payroll has the versatility you need when setting up deductions and contributions for your staff.  I'd be glad to assist!

 

Here's how to set up a company contribution item;

 

1. Open Payroll, then Employees

2. Select your employee

3. Click on Edit in the Deductions & contributions section

4. Select + Add Deduction/contribution

5. Select the Deduction/contribution type from the ▼ dropdown menu

6. Enter a Description (appears on paycheque)

7. In the Company contribution section, select Flat amount or Percentage of gross pay. Then enter the amount or percent per paycheck

8. If you want to specify an annual maximum amount for company contributions, enter the amount in the Annual Max field

9. Hit Save

You're all set!

 

Please feel free to reach back out to us here, if you have other questions.  We'd love to help!

I thought I had this set this up correctly as I was wanting to add an RRSP contribution where I wanted to pay my employee extra for them to put towards their RRSP. I set it up under this contribution section, but I am finding out that this only keeps track and does not actually add any amount onto the paycheque. Is this correct or is there a problem with my system?? Any guidance would be appreciated.
