How can you separate the employer portion of CPP and EI in the GL.

Currently, separating the employer portion of CPP and EI in the General ledger (GL) is unavailable, @admin341. Let me provide further insights about this below.

To begin, the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and Employment Insurance (EI) are categorized as default items in the General Ledger (GL). This means that they are automatically grouped together within the payroll entries, preventing users from separating the employer portion of these contributions from other payroll expenses.

In case you want to customize your data such as adding or removing columns, modifying the header/footer, or personalizing the font and style of the report, please refer to this article: Customize reports in QBDT.

What you need to do is set up expense accounts and liability accounts for each and set up payroll items for each different payroll wage you want to expense. From there you will need to set up in each employee tab what payroll item you want to that employee to be expensed to. I provided a sample of how to do it. I have numerous payroll accounts and each are set up individually.
