This example creates a batch header and group record, with various lines and values
to adjust some Quebec Labour Standards balances for one employee – exempt wages and earnings
– without excess remuneration.
In this case, the several exempt balances are adjusted. Other QLS balances are adjusted
as required. In this example, the annual maximum limit is $78,500. No adjustments are
required to Gross Earnings.
