Employees can submit or withdraw consent to receive year-end slips electronically using Fluid Self-Service.

To update the consent:

  1. Access the Payroll page using Payroll tile.

  2. Select the required consent page from the left navigation pane and select the check box to indicate that consent is being submitted or withdrawn.

  3. Once you select the Submit button, the Verify Identity Page appears for authentication.

  4. Enter your PeopleSoft user ID and password for identity verification and select the Continue button.

    The system updates the employee’s consent status, displays a confirmation page, and sends the employee a confirmation email. The confirmation email is sent to the employee’s preferred email address as indicated in the employee’s personal data record. If the employee does not have a preferred email address, the consent status is still updated, but a message informs the employee that no email will be sent.

Note: If an employee has an invalid email address (such as an email address with invalid characters), the system does not update the employee’s consent. A message informs the employee that consent cannot be updated until a valid email address is on file.

User Roles

Term

Definition

NA Payroll Fluid T4 User

This role is required to access the consent form and tax slips for T4/T4A.

NA Payroll Fluid RL User

This role is required to access the consent form and tax slips for RL-1/RL-2.

Form Availability Notification

The system generates notifications when you select the Availability Notification button on the Year End Form Options Page, notifying employees that their year-end forms are available for viewing in Employee Self-Service.

Payroll for North America provides a system-level option that allows all employees to view year-end slip details in HTML without enabling screen reader mode for themselves individually.

If the country-specific option is selected in the Fluid HTML View in Standard Mode section of the Payroll for NA Installation Page, employees can access year-end slip details and filing instructions through online pages (HTML) in standard mode, in addition to the PDF format. The same functionality is also available when the employee enables screen reader mode on the PeopleSoft signon page or from the My Preferences page, irrespective of this option.

If this option is not selected, employees view their slips in PDF when screen reader mode is not enabled.
