Hi marie79

Thanks for your response.

I was able to check the screenshot you sent. When you check the payroll categories, could you please check if it is exempted to PAYG. Generally, if the payroll category is exempted to PAYG, this will not show up on your STP reports. To correct the situation, please check first if the payroll category is PAYG exempted. To do this, go to Payroll > Payroll Categories > Click the wage category for Worker's Compensation > Click Exempt > Check if PAYG withholding listed checked > To remove an exemption, untick the checkbox. If you are unsure if the Worker's Compensation should be PAYG exempted, we recommend speaking with your accountant or financial advisor.

After changes has been made, please send an update event or process a $0 pay run.

Please let me know how it goes.

Best regards,

Doreen

Thanks for your post.

To further assist you with this, please attach a screenshot of how workers' compensation was set up. Make sure sensitive is removed before posting in the Forum. Also, please check The Help Article Paying workers' compensation for further information.
