Generating trial Releve slips and electronic file

We recommend that you first run Generate Releve 1 or Generate Releve 2 without printing the slips to identify any potential problems. You can run Generate Releve 1 or Generate Releve 2 to enable the Generate CSV and Generate XML options, with Update Employee Slip set to disabled, as often as necessary because it is not an update program. You can run it after your first payroll cycle of the new year.

The Generate Releve 1 or Generate Releve 2 Update Employee Slip parameter field should be set to disabled on all RL-1 and RL-2 test runs. The field value should be changed to enabled on the final, original, or amended run that is used to create the slips that are distributed to employees for filing. Setting the Update Employee Slip to enabled results in the employee's slip number being stored to Canadian Employee Configurable Fields or Employee Quebec Year End Parameters - Releve 1 for Releve 1 and Amend or Cancel Employee Quebec Releve 2 Year End Parameters for Releve 2, for potential future use in creating amended or canceled RL-1 or RL-2 slips.

An error is created if any errors are recognized by Payroll in the Releve report error list. Review the error report list and correct any errors. After you create the trial run, check the employees' Releve slips for errors. If there are errors, make the necessary adjustments to the year-end data and the year-end parameters before you print your Releve slips.
