Super - Unable to record payment

Hi,

 

I have been trying to process my super payment for Feb since yesterday. Yesterday I was unable to as it said I had 2 employees with the same member number which was incorrect.  One employee has "UNKNOWN" as they are new and the previous initially had the same but it has since been updated with their new member number. Today I am getting a message saying the superfund details entered for myself are invalid.

 

The only thing I could find is that my name is spelt incorrectly in the "Pay Super Settings" menu. When I elect to edit my details it doesnt allow me to edit my name spelling.

 

Could this be the issue and if so how do I amend my name spelling. The spelling is correct in the General SETUP - USER ACCESS menu. 

 

I am on hold to MYOB  - have been for 30 minutes and the wait time was supposed to be 26-30mins in total but I still have 26-30mins left.

    There have been some superfund mergers lately that could be causing this error you're receiving. Could you please check the Superfund details entered into your software match what is on the ATO Superfund lookup page: superfundlookup.gov.au.

    Check for a stapled Super Fund, alot of employees never notify us when there Super Fund is merged and then MYOB wont let us pay it.

      Hi Sam, I checked further and did get in touch with an operator by phone eventually and you were right re superfund mergers/changes. Colonial First State was one of those funds.

       

      Thank you!

      Hi Sam,

       

      I have checked each one of the 5 Superfunds we use and nothing has changed. In saying that, if there was an issue with the superfunds, I would think that I would still get past the step that I got to. It seems more that it is an issue with my details as I cant even log in to "the Pay SUPER portal - my details are "invalid". Would the difference in name spelling cause this?

       

      Just for reference I have been on the phone for 1.75 hours now and it is still telling me I have a 45min wait. This is after an hour when an operator answered and said it would only be another 10-15min wait to get through to the relevant department. Very poor service. I am so disappointed - I really loathe having to call MYOB for this reason as it was 3.5hrs wait over 2 days last time with no resolution as I hung up in despair.

        Usually when this error occurs, a red cross icon will appear next to the employee that is having issues, and once you hover over the red cross/warning icon it will display the details that need correcting. Does this appear for you?
