URGENT - EMPLOYEE PAYS NOT RECORDING

Hi there,

 

I am trying to process an employee pay run - I get all the way through to hitting 'record' at which point I then get the 'process payments' screen and all fields show as 0 and the payments do not record, no error messages. I have tried this with several employees, over 2 company files but get the same result.

 

We need to process payroll today so this is extremely urgent and any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Tash

    Hi BrendenE 

     

    In that case, please send me your serial number by Private Message so we can organize to get your file in and check if something else is causing the issue.

      We are having the same problem in a local stored data file.  MYOB AccountRight Plus 2021.1.1 - Build version 2021.1.24.3611

       

      I've restored the data file from an older backup and that has not changed anything.

       

      The data entry is working as per normal and everything appears normal until the Prepare Electronic Payments screen.  At this stage there are no payments to select on the screen.

       

      When I log into the Payroll Reporting system the pays that I have just entered have not be uploaded to the ATO STP system.   The STP data is not showing on the ATO online services system either. 

       

      I recall reading that the new version 2021.1 had automatic updates.

      So......   MYOB, please confirm if you have recently pushed through an upgrade that might be causing this problem.
