T4A slip & CERB: Description warning

I just had my first client with a T4A slip showing, in box 197, the amount of the CERB he received in 2020. When I entered it, the T4A slip “Description” field remained yellow and the message said, “Slip for CERB and CRB is incomplete. Please review.” When I put a dummy amount of $1.00 on line 22 (Income Tax Deducted), the warning was gone. Of course, no tax was deducted on the CERB, only on the CRB.

Hi, thank you for using Intuit ProFile Community

The warning issue will be resolved in ProFile version 2020.4.0, targeted for release near the end of March, 2021. Note, this is just a warning issue and does not affect the T1 calculation and the return will be submitted to CRA correctly.

Hope this helps

End of March is too long to wait. The yellow colour is error is the same error when slip information is carried forward from a previous year and missing information, we are used-to deleting the slip with yellow colour.

if you remove "Government of Canada" as issuer on top of T4A it will remove the error

Of course, if the is no description, there is no error. But if I removed the description and take a look at the T4A slip page, I won't immediately know that the client had any T4A slip, unless I scroll down. The best solution would be to eliminate the yellow warning-but I'd rather deal with it than leave the description field blank.

it CLEARLY shows up on the T1S page  which should be given to each client and should be looked at by the person doing it more so than Looking for a T4A slip page---
