STP2

Hi, Annie31

Thanks for your post.

When creating an all-purpose allowance, you may need to set up separate wage categories for each allowance you will need to pay and assign it to the applicable ATO Reporting Category for those allowances. To do this, we recommend checking the Help Article: Allowances for further details on how to set up an all-purpose allowance.

Please lt us know if you require any further assistance with this.

Best regards,

Doreen

Sorry, I may not have been clear enough.  I have all my allowances set up and record separately to the ATO but what happens when overtime is worked.

As an example, An electrician earns $50/hr (above award payment which absorbs the all-purpose allowances)

STP2 is split   ($1900 gross for 38hrs)

Base wage           $47.5145/hr      $1805.55

Electricians licence allowance      $    35.82

Industry allowance                       $    36.82

Tool allowance                              $   21.81

                                                       $1900.00

This is how I would report a standard 38hr week

When overtime is worked it needs to be calculated using $50/hr not $47.5145/hr
