Canadian Payroll

Sage Accpac Canadian Payroll is your key to effectively managing employee earnings and benefits.

Sage Accpac Canadian Payroll is a flexible module that gives you complete control over employee earnings and benefits, special payroll situations and government reporting, ensuring that your company's payroll requirements and personnel policies are accurate to the penny. You can enter or import timecards, enter after-the-fact paycheques, run automatic calculations or even combine all three methods to get your pay data into the system and your paycheques deployed on time. Payroll handles all pay frequencies; multiple work states; unlimited earnings, deductions, benefits and taxes; and other pay factors such as expense reimbursements, accruals and advances. Best of all, because Payroll runs through a standard Web browser, you can process all of your payroll transactions anywhere and anytime you access the Internet.
