Super on Portable Long Service Leave paid by Scheme

Hi,

 

I understand that portable LSL paid by employer will incur super. However, if the employee directly requested portable LSL to be taken out & paid by Scheme to the employee's bank account, do we still need to pay super? Since there are no monetary entries on the employer's side. 

 

I have asked Scheme that they do not pay super.

 

And how do we keep records in payroll?

 

Thanks

      • Hello 

         

        Yes Im still having trouble.

         

        The LSL has been paid directly to the employee so I was wondering how to pay the super and record this via payroll?
