    I created a new bonus –STP – payroll category and did process manual payroll runs for the 3 employees using the new bonus – STP payroll category and then sent it off to ATO. Checked the figures for EOFY Finalisation with STP to ATO & now it balances with my original correct payroll activity and payroll register summary.

    I then deleted the manual payroll runs for the 3 employees to avoid doubling up and this seems to be ok now.

I am trying to do an EOFY Finalisation in STP. I am using AccountRight 2019.2.1. The Gross payments in the EOFY Finalisation are incorrect for 3 employees. The difference relates to bonus paid to them in Dec 2018. I started using STP only from 01/06/2019. The bonus has been set up correctly as Gross payment in the ATO reporting category. I tried doing a zero - nil pay for one of those employees and then sent it off to the ATO, but it does not seem to pick it up and the difference still remains. My payroll activity summary and register summary are correctly including the bonus payments in gross payments in those reports. Please help urgently as employees are paid weekly and the next payrun is this Wed 03/07/19.

Can I close the 2018-19 year while this is incorrect, Roll over the 2018-19 and start 2019-20 so I am able to pay employees on 03/07/19 and also be able to send this data realting to 2019-20 to ATO via STP and then fix the bonus error for the 3 employees in the 2018-19 FY later? Or do I have to fix this error first before I roll over 2018-19 and start pays for 2019-20 year. I have tried several times to ring Myob technical support on Friday, but was on hold for more than an hour and in the end, my boss wanted to go home although I was prepared to stay back. Can you please help?

Thanks

Similar issues here too, relating to allowances, but the verification report seems to be ok so figure I'm good to go but now find 2 other issues,

1) Directors super is allocated to an expense account and doesnt seem to be linked to an ATO STP account so my super guarantee figure is wrong and

2) also not sure how to add in extra super payments made to director through Reportable Super (as we would manually add that figure in when doing the paymetn summaries

 

3) also do we still do EMPDUPE files or do we simply roll over and start a new payroll year as I too do wages wednesday coming
