EXTRA PAYG REPORTING

Hi All,

Using MYOB Accountright Plus 2019.2 I have Employees who pay Extra PAYG, however I have done it in their Wages as a liability account.  Now with STP reporting (just started and trying to get it right before EOFY)  it is not picking it up as a separate line item (should it?).

 

  1. I realise (now) there is an area in the Taxes tab in the Employee Card (see attached - I have not used this)
  2. How can I retrospectively update this so I can get a report that showes it in correct format.
  3. The payroll reporting pages don't seem to include the extra tax paid by four employees

Need help.  Thank you

Karen

 

 

  • HALLELUJAH - I HAVE THE ANSWER!!!

     

    If you have put your EXTRA PAYG through Categories (to show on the payslip as a separate item and it is not showing up in your STP report) ...

     

    The STP solution is ...

     

    Do a Pay Event and enter like this

     

    EG:

    • EXTRA PAYG                       + 728
    • PAYG Withholding              - 728

     

    This produces a NIL pay event.

     

    Then send to STP, as this increases the PAYG Witholding. 

    • In your Software this transfers the balance from Extra PAYG to PAYG Witholding category.

     

    Voila!!

    Thank you to Chris ICB !!!

        Hi KarenE 

         

        I think bungy15  has covered the recommended process for ensuring that extra tax is paid to the employee with the link to STP extra tax payment. The only thing that I would add is that this value is not separate but is added to the PAYG withholding amount for the employee. For example, if they have $100 set as extra tax and they would normally get $50 PAYG, the PAYG withholding amount for that pay and consequently for payroll reporting would be $150  (normal + extra amount).
