    Hi VenessaHVB 

     

    Payment Summaries in AccountRight 2020 can be produced via Payroll>>Prepare Payment Summaries. If you are on AccountRight 2020.2 and you have enabled payroll reporting you would not have that option, however, these can be produced via the Command Centre menu (top of the screen)>>Payroll>>Prepare Payment Summaries. 

     

    In terms of the Payment Summary Assistant, the information that will be displayed for the current payroll year. If you have entered your first pays in the new payroll year (i.e. payment date on or after 01/07/2020), you would have rolled the payroll year with the entry of those pays and thus a backup would need to be restored prior to enter of those pays to produce those payments summaries for the previous year. A backup can be restored via File>>Backup. If the company file has been stored online, MYOB may be able to supply a server backup to complete those payment summaries.

I just had a request for a Payment Summary from someone who needed it (probably for a loan). She doesn't know how to use MyGov. (Maybe she gets an accountant to do her tax returns - so never needs to look at it.) I went to "End of Year finalisation" and downloaded the report as a pdf.  It was suitable for her needs.

 

I think it's a pain we can't print an actual Payment Summary. Wouldn't have thought it would be that hard to keep a template in MYOB and an extra tab button to use to print it from. But anyway, the above report was useable.

Hi Wynn 


If you have used Payroll Reporting (STP) during your payroll year we do recommend that you produce the Summary of Payments available through the EOFY Finalisation of the Payroll Reporting Centre. However, if you wish to have a payment summary produced this can be done through Command Centre>>Payroll>>Prepare Payment Summaries.


Note: You can only produce payment summaries for the current payroll year you are in and such you may have to restore a backup to produce those older payment summaries.
