PAYROLL PROCESSING - SET YTD TOTALS
Whether or not you are able to modify YTD totals is controlled by a parameter. Typically, this parameter is set to allow modification of YTD totals during payroll setup only and is reset to prevent modifications after setup is complete. There are two ways to enter your current YTD totals when setting up the payroll system.
The first method to get your YTD totals into Ideal payroll is to enter the YTD totals from your old payroll system here on screen 7. Typically, you would select this method if you are switching over early in the payroll year, have only a few employees and/or do not require a full year of payroll to be entered in Ideal payroll. Since this method does not create a full year in Ideal payroll, you will still require information from your old system to print T4's and to document your payroll history for the year.
The second method is to duplicate your payrolls in Ideal payroll from the first of the year to date. Typically, you would select this method if you have a large number of employees and desire a full year of payroll history in Ideal payroll. This method enables you to print T4's and payroll reports without further input from your old payroll system. In addition, duplicating your old payroll totals for the first part of the year enables you to verify your Ideal payroll setup. If you wish to use this method, contact your Ideal consultant.
At the prompt on screen 7:
Enter the number of the payroll code to modify.
The cursor is positioned in the YTD TOTAL field.
Enter the desired total.
The cursor is positioned in the YTD TOTAL field of the next line item where you may Enter the desired YTD total or press [F4] to exit.

[Enter] for no further modifications.
[Enter] to update all modifications.
