Using Sage 50 Version 2021.2 CPP Maximum reached but Sage 50 is still calculating

In previous versions when the max amount was reached for CPP Sage 50 indicated the employee had reached their max yearly amount and automatically stopped calculating.  Version 2021.2 keeps on calculating CPP after the max yearly amount.  Is there something new that must be setup to have this happen in this version?

    Hi 

    Giving the limited information here, I can only recommend you check couple places.

    1. Open that specific employee record, select the T4 and RL-1 Reporting tab. check if the Pensionable Earnings box amount max or not

    2. check if employee detail report's Insurable earning reach $61,600 (2021)  (you might have to customize detail report add more column info)

    When doing up pay cheques Sage 50 always indicates on the tax tab when the employee has reached their maximum CPP contribution for the year.  In Version 2021.2 I have a couple of company files that are not doing this.  It's just weird that I have one company that is indicating when max. is reached but another company file is not.  Just want to know if there is a box that needs to be checked in order to have Sage indicate when the max. CPP contributions are reached and stop calculating it when processing a pay cheque.

    Sage 50 will automatically stop calculating when your reach max.  Most common issue is CPP Pensionable Earnings Not Equal to Gross Earnings

    here is a list of conditions when CPP will stop calculating, you can reverse search article 10600
