Thanks for the reply William.
There are several reasons to get Payroll working in Gnucash and not use
a free internet pay slip generator:
* Entering payroll into Gnucash and then again in a payslip generator
adds time onto booking. Most small business owners have liited spare
time in which to do bookkeeping.
* Entering payroll for a free pay slip on the internet is never free.
What are they using the information for.
* I try to keep as much of my data, including my bookkeeping, local
with backups (business continuity), so that I am at less risk of
losing my data.
* Small business owners with 2-10 employees or sole proprietors will
look for a one-in-all bookkeeping program for payroll (employees),
petty cash (employee expenses), expenses (vendors), invoicing
(customers), assets, liabilities, receivables, payables, and tax
remittance. (I may have missed something in that list. Also, I have
not tried inventory management in Gnucash so I do not know if that
is an option by entering them as short term assets.)
If entering payroll as splits in a Gnu cash checking account and then,
while select, paying that transaction by going to File -> Print Check,
then that would have provided a pay stub. Since that did not work and I
am now using a voucher to enter payroll and pay an employee, I have
crossed into a pay slip.
My latest attempt this morning involved going to File -> Properties ->
Tax and changing the tax number for payroll (to have ...RP0001) and then
changing back for invoicing (...RT0001) or for a charitable donation
(...RC0001). Faster then going on line to enter the payroll information
for a separate time in an unsecure internet environment. With a little
aranging, the example from yesterday is now at the following for a pay
slip.... there are still issues with the TAX, TOTAL PRICE, "payment,
Thank you!", and the AMOUNT DUE rows. But The sklip is closer

Looking on-line to see if there is a prescribed format for Canadian
pay slips (confusingly called paystubs and nothing to do with cheque
stubs) I came across
Free Canadian Pay Stub Generator [No Signup] - Download PDF
<https://smoothledger.com/payslip-generator/canada>
and similar and am now left wondering why you don't just use gnucash
for the accounting (and possibly cheque printing if desired) and do
the payslip the easy way? This seems like a problem that someone else
has already solved.
