Canadian Payroll Earning Types

Search and filter Beanflow's 59 system earning classifications. Each row shows CPP, EI, income-tax method, and verified 2026 T4 treatment — with caveats where the type is catalog-only, inactive, or fail-closed.

Last updated August 2026

59 system earning classifications

Regular salary, regular hourly, and overtime are calculated on the timesheet/payroll path and are not counted in these 59 rows. This table is Beanflow Payroll classification — CPP, EI, and tax method from the current catalog, T4 from the verified 2026 reporting policy.

Vacationable earnings follow the jurisdiction's employment-standards definition, not legacy catalog flags. WCB assessability depends on the Board and classification. Quebec rows are catalog/reference only; Quebec payroll runtime is outside current product scope.

How to read this table

CPP / EI / Tax are Beanflow Payroll classification for the selected type. Quebec-only differences stay in the row caveats; they do not change the current non-Quebec catalog flags.
T4 (2026) comes from the verified annual T4 reporting policy. Unsupported codes fail closed at year-end rather than guessing a box.
Inactive / Quebec catalog rows stay in the reference so the catalog is complete. They are not selectable runtime types in current Beanflow payroll.
