Elements Used for Balance Adjustments for Canada
When you make a balance adjustment, the Balance Adjustments process uses these elements to make the adjustments:
-
Primary or base element
-
Results element
The Results element is a secondary element created when you define the primary element. For adjustments on predefined tax elements, the process uses the primary element to adjust the balance.

Before you perform a balance adjustment, consider the following:
-
If a balance adjustment is required for any element other than Earnings, Pretax, Voluntary or Involuntary, you must manually create balance feeds for the following balances:
-
Net Pay
-
Gross Pay
-
Any balances associated with the primary and secondary classifications of all elements other than Earnings, Pretax, Voluntary, or Involuntary
For example, if you are adjusting an employer liability, you must manually set up a balance feed for the net pay, gross pay, and the balances associated with the Employer Liability element. The application automatically sets up the necessary balance feeds for elements of Earnings, Pretax, Voluntary, and Involuntary classifications.
