Paying Super to Contractors

Hi,  I have a contractor for whom we are required to pay superannuation, and I have set them up as an employee according to MYOB guidelines. However, when I process the zero pay with the super (as per MYOB instructions), I encounter the following issues. What does MYOB recommend doing, given that the problem arises from the limitations of the MYOB payroll options?

    Hey vilyjayne,

     

    It's correct that you only enter the super amount whenever you process payroll for the contractor. Regarding the ATO error codes showing on the screenshot, you can edit the start date of the contractor from the employee profile. With the employment basis code, just change the employment of the contractor to the correct one. You can find it on the employee profile as well under Payroll details > Employment details.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen
