Deduction for phone account

[QuirkyB]

We have an employee who is listed on the Phone Account and she is to pay her monthly phone fee. How do we put that in the Accountright 2019.2. We would like to deduct this from her pay each fortnight as a standard deduction.

Hi Sholt73,

Thanks for the link, I have looked at this but I am still unsure as to what category to put it in. Currently I have it set up in deductions to take out an amount per fortnight. But when I do the payment summary it is not included in the payment summary gross wage as it is taken out and the tax is right.

I have it set up

Deduction Name : Telstra Account Bianca

Linked Payable Account : Payroll Accruals Payable

ATO REporting Category : Not Reportable

Hi @QuirkyB 

It looks like the STP set up is correct if the Gross is the amount before the deduction.  

I would look at the Payment Summary set up in the wizard, The Telstra deduction should not be ticked under the Gross Payments Payment Summary field.

Perfect, Thankyou
