I've been using the desktop version of MYOB because I'm so over this issue. Re: STP reporting during payroll Today's payroll I did in the web version of MYOB. My process was: 1. update the employee's hours etc 2. click 'Next' so it could do the 'checking the STP validations' bit 3. click previous and update the next employee's pay record 4. At the 34th employee's pay record, when I clicked 'Next' to do the 'checking the STP validations' bit, it did not pass 5. Unchecked the 34th employee in the payrun. 6. Finalised the payrun for the previous 33 employees 7. STP reporting went through without errors 8. Run reports and upload bank file 9. Back to the start - created new payrun for the same dates and proceeded to process for the last 16 employees Although this is a work around, it's still ridiculous that for some reason when I get to the 34th employee MYOB doesn't like it and I get the STP checking error. The problem remains and is definitely not resolved. Re: Checking pay run failed. Try again magyarkukiNope. Not the case for me. I make a point of not updating/changing ANYTHING once I start a payrun these days. With 50 employees, I'm not taking any chances. Still a problem for me. Re: Checking pay run failed. Try again @ Loulou68 I agree with you completely. I am so frustrated by this. I keep getting told I'm doing something to cause it and I am absolutely not. I do not do a payrun these days unless everything is updated before I start. Sick of the fact that I am getting nowhere and yes, a price increase too! Re: STP reporting during payroll Hi Earl Sorry for the delayed response. I waited until I had an uncomplicated payroll before trying the cloud version of Accountright again. I have just entered my payroll for this fortnight and am still having exactly the same issues. I’ve created the payrun and amended the pays for employees, I click “Next’ and get the error "Checking pay run failed. Try again" I did a test for this error a while ago. What I did was run a few different ‘test’ pay runs with only a handful of employees, to see if I could isolate which employee is causing the issue. I did not get this error once therefore can only assume there are no issues with STP setup. When I click ‘Record’ I fill out the ‘Send payroll information to the ATO’ authorisation form. I click ‘Submit’ to send the pay run details to the ATO and then get the error: "Something went wrong. Please try again or refresh the browser. Please try again. If the error persists, get in touch with us. Request ID: ebc7158b-7c52-42a0-ae16-b327a19328ca." Then I click 'Update and Close' and go into the Destop version of MYOB as you suggested and go to Payroll Reporting>Check Payroll Details and there are NO issues detected. I receive a message 'Nice one! Your company information and employee details meet ATO requirements." The Diagnostics Log is attached. I now have deleted the payrun so I can re-enter it in the desktop version of MYOB, in order to get employees paid today. Thanks Helen Re: STP reporting during payroll Hi Genreve I went into each employee's leave tab and 'saved' as you suggested. I have just processed our fortnightly payroll again and the same problem/s exist. Issue #1 I finish updating the pay records in the payrun and click on'Next’ to move to the next screen which shows a list of all of the staff in the pay run, their last net pay amount and their current payrun net amounts. The same error - "Checking pay run failed. Try again" message came up again. As it has for the past 12 months or so.Up until the last couple of payruns, I have been able to continue finalising the payrun from this point (regardless of that error) without any issues. Issue #2 Today when I had finished updating the pay run, I clicked 'Record' , then filled out the STP reporting authorisation, then clicked 'submit to ATO' and this error appeared and I could go no further: "Something went wrong. Please try again or refresh the browser. Please try again. If the error persists, get in touch with us. Request ID: b377245d-490d-4720-9560-ee036540f7b4" Then I had to go into the desktop version of MYOB, create a payrun and re-enter all of the payroll for the 47 employees. I will not be using the web version of MYOB for payroll again. It's a waste of my time doing this stuff twice every time. STP reporting during payroll Kameleon Group Pty Ltd serial number **** **** **** When I process our payroll using the web version of AccountRight there are 2 issues occurring. First issue (this has been occurring for over a year. I have tried MYOB support but they were unhelpful): When I have entered all the pays and I click 'Next’ to move to the next screen (which lists all of the staff in the pay run and their net pay amounts), I get the 'Checking pay run failed. Try again' message every single time. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME that it’s because I’ve ‘saved’ and gone back into it, I NEVER do that! I process payroll start to finish without saving and closing it until I am finished. For the past year and a bit, I have just ignored the message it and continued. Everything seems to work fine, including STP reporting. To try to isolate which employee is causing this message to appear, I have created pay runs for each employee but in small groups – 5 or 6 in each pay run, (and then cancelled the pay runs before it gets to the ‘Record’ bit). I never get this message and therefore I am at a loss to understand why the message only displays when I run the payroll for all employees. Second issue: When I click 'Record' and fill out the STP reporting authorisation, I get this error: "Something went wrong. Please try again or refresh the browser. Please try again, if the error persists, get in touch with us. Request ID: b434e3bf-27d0-4357-bd3b-095bdc44750d." I cannot proceed further. I go into the desktop version of AccountRight, and when I click on 'Process Payroll' I get a pop up telling me a pay run was saved but the dates are all 1/01/001. If I click on 'Continue' I get an error telling me 'AccountRight needs to close' and I have no choice but to restart AccountRight. The only option I have is to go back to the web version, delete the payroll I've just created and re-create it in the desktop version so that it processes end to end. With 45 staff, that is annoying! SolvedRe: Checking pay run failed. Try again FYI this is still a problem. I have even been through the employees one at a time and it did not fail once. It's just when I pay everyone at once that I get the error. STP reporting is fine - everything lodged and approved. It's just wierd. Helen Re: Checking pay run failed. Try again Hi Celia Thank you but the article you have posted the link to is not helpful. I have done Payroll>Payroll Reporting?Check Payroll Details and there are no issues. Today I have created the payrun, not made any changes to anything except within the payrun and when I finish the data entry and click 'NEXT' it moves to the next page and goes through the 'Checking pay run for Single Touch Payroll' settings' and comes up with "! Checking pay run failed. Try again". This happens every pay run. I ignore it and submit to the ATO and every time it is accepted without errors. I spent hours on the phone with MYOB support ages ago and got nowhere. It will be interesting to see what happens when I go to finalise at the end of the year. Helen Re: Checking pay run failed. Try again I get this error every single payrun (Accountright Plus) yet all of my payruns are 'accepted' I asked MYOB helpline last year and after 2 + hours on the phone got absolutely no solution. Fingers crossed Payroll EOFY goes without incident or I'll be annoyed!
