The Canada Year End Amendment Tab

The Amendment tab in Canada Year End, illustrated in the following screenshot, loads with a toolstrip containing a Year drop-down list and with the Refresh, Cutoff Dates, and Reports button.

If you specify a year for which amended forms have been requested, or if there are any existing amended T4 or RL-1 requests for the year, Dayforce loads the requests in a list in the Amendment tab. Each list item includes information about a request, such as when the request was made, or whether the request ignored employee name changes when generating the amended tax forms.
