    UPDATE:  I to reversed the last fortnighlly payrun and reprocessed. All the missing data from the pay that was processed using 'period type Bonus/Commission' has now been included in the STP EOFY Finalisation Total Report (Gross and PAYG balance) and has is now also included in each employees YTD Summary Report (Gross and PAYG SGC ). Huzzah!

     

    Hope that helps anyone who is pulling their hair out trying to figure out why data is missing from their YTD Summary Reports or EOY Finalisation Report.  Check if you used 'pay period type Bonus/Commission'.

Hi Lizzyha 

 

Thanks for your post. In STP Phase 2 Bonus payments are reported separately in the YTD verification report under the Bonuses and Commissions ATO reporting category, not included in Gross payments as they were in Phase 1. 

 

If the Bonus payments do appear under the Bonuses and Commissions ATO reporting category in the YTD verification report they have been reported to the ATO correctly.

 

Please let me know if you need further help.

Hi Tracey,

 

Thank you for your response to this post, it is very helpful.  Can you please confirm that the same treatment will apply to Overtime and Other Paid Leave under Phase 2 reporting? 

 

I can see that myself and many other community members are coming across this issue and are wasting so much valuable time trying to find the answer and ensure we are reporting correctly.

 

I think this is a topic MYOB need to be communicating to the wider community! A big change in reporting that the current EOFY guides are not highlighting or providing any guidance on.

      Hi Tracey,

       

      I currently have the same issue.  When I am in the below screen the gross amounts do not include bonuses/commission amounts but when you go in to the YTD Verification report they are there.  If I click finalise and notify ATO will the total amounts be reported or not? It's not quite clear from the posts here.

       

      I would rather not reverse and re-do pays as we have several months where bonuses were paid, or would it only have to be one pay? Would that particular pay have to have bonuses for all those who have been paid them across the year? Having never had to reverse a pay before, is replicating it again a simple process or does it have to be done from scratch ie re-entering any leave from that month as well?

        Hi clearbear28 

         

        It's the YTD verification report and Summary of payments reports (EOFY finalisation tab>>click on the employee>>View report) that is sent to the ATO when you finalise STP so you need to make sure the Bonus amounts are reporting correctly in those reports. If they are and all other amounts are correct you can finalise.

         

        Please let me know if you need further help.

    Hi harta 

     

    The post, What's different in STP Phase 2 reporting, has detailed information on this and can be found in EOFY FAQs and Resources 2022 on the Community Forum homepage.

     

    Just to clarify though, this isn't a change in how YTD amounts are reported in STP. The YTD verification report and Summary of payments report pull the YTD amounts from the employee card and filter according to the ATO reporting categories. The difference is that there are more ATO reporting categories in STP Phase 2.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.
