"Board and Keep"

Question

Hi,This is relation to the "Board and Keep" deduction noted in the Pastoral Award.&nbsp; An amount of $150.16 can be deducted from employees pays per week to cover such things as food and accommodation. It is not an allowance.&nbsp; My question is, how should this be coded in the cashbook and declared to the ATO. My client is in a remote area which is not liable for FBT however I would have thought it was still subject to PAYGW?&nbsp;&nbsp;If so, the only codes for STP2 that show up are either for salary sacrifice purposes or under deductions as Child support or Union fees or workplace giving.&nbsp; It isn't any of these either!I would appreciate some clarity for this please. Thank you&nbsp;

Hi LisaM&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Thank you for your post.
&nbsp;
You can add new pay item name under the deduction tab and select the most appropriate ATO reporting category. I would recommend to speak to your financial advisor or to ATO of what is the correct reporting category you can use.
&nbsp;
You may also refer to our Help Article, Assign ATO reporting categories for Single Touch Payroll reporting, that has detailed information about this.
