Hi Smiller
The fields should be grabbing the totals based on what Payroll Categories are linked to it.
I have seen a few cases where Salary Sacrifice has increased the W fields instead of decreasing which can cause the same problem you have reported. Could you check if this might be the same issue in your case?
Otherwise, what I recommend doing is running the Payroll Register [Detail] report as this will give you a full break down per-Category, then if you open the Online BAS page and go to: Settings > Set up activity statement fields, you can then check what Categories are associated to the W field and then check the figures accordingly. This can give you a much more in depth view if a specific category is throwing it out or the figures are all wrong.
Keep me posted on how you go.
Thanks for responding.
Seems the problem is that it didn't include the holiday pay. I have added this in the settings but it hasn't changed the total amount at all. Do I need to worry about this or not? The tax withheld seems right so does the holiday pay need to be included? If so, how do I make it update with the new settings? I tried running it again through MYOB but the amounts didn't change. Should I delete it first and then run again?
