Payroll in Forge Tech
In Forge Tech Accounting, the Payroll screen creates estimated pay stubs: QPP, EI and QPIP at these 2026 rates, and income tax estimated at 10% federal and 10% Quebec. The Automation Center can email you a DAS remittance reminder on the 10th of each month with the previous month's totals. The full 2026 engine (basic exemption, annual maximums, tax brackets) is built into the software but not yet connected to that screen: for an exact paycheque, Revenu Québec's WebRAS remains the reference.
