Payroll: Edit Payslip template
Please allow us to edit the Payslip template in MYOB Essentials. I have employees who are on hourly and some on salary. The hourly rate showing on the salary payslip and the annual salary showing on the casual hourly rate payslip is misleading and looks very unprofessional. The layout of the Payslip is also not well thought out. Very sad indeed. "Payslips"
Report: Payroll activity - list alphabetically by last name
Who was the genius that decided that a payroll report should list employees alphabetically baed on their first name instead of their surname? MYOB have never done this before (for good reason). No other accounting report or ATO report or any report lists employees alphabetically based on their first name. If there is a good reason for it, I certainly cannot see it. Please either change the alphabetical listing in the reports to be based on surnames, or give the user the ability to edit the way that the reports are listed like Xero does? "Payroll activity report listed alphabetically using surname (NOT first name)"Report: Pay item transactions - Include hours worked
I used to be able to get hours worked on the Pay Items transaction report. The new version only has dollars. I contacted online support and received the following response: I have looked at report and have found Unfortunately, Due to update, this feature has ben removed, there is no way to include it in that report. It is very disappointing when an "upgrade" takes away a useful feature that is used. Please return this functionality. "Pay items report should still include hours worked"Employees: Notes - increase character limit
Hi we have just had the 1st of 4 files migrated to the new version of Essentials. We have been eagerly awaiting all the new featuresthat would make life easier but we are disappointed to see some of the good points about the old version have gone. The notes section of the employee file has a reduced character limit so much so that the notes on one employee file that were imported from the old version have had to be cut & pasted to a word document as they were too large for the field & tech support are unable to tell me how charaters can go in the field The payslip (& whole payroll process) was much simpler in the old version. We would like to be able to edit the payslip template or if you could just make it look like the old version including logo that would be fantastic We would like to be able to add our logo to the remittance advice as well If we can edit the invoice template why cant we edit the payslip & remittance templates? It is great that we can now have TOIL & LSL accruals & recurring journals but I wish you could have kept the good features from the old version that have been removed. We would love the simplicity of the old version with the added features of the new "Payroll & templates in New Essentials"
Payroll: Search employee pay slips by employee name
New System has lost functionality. We were able to search payslips by clicking on a particualr employee. We can now only search payslips by date. This makes it more time consuming to send adhoc payslips when staff ask for it., or when we need to retrieve payslips for other reasons. "Unable to search payslips by Staff member"
Payroll: Add pay item mid-payrun
In the upgraded version of Myob essential / Business, It is really frustaing when you have to add a pay item to an employee in the middle of the pay runbecause it asks you to create a new pay run when you have processed a long list of employees already, it is a time wasting. Please have this feature back, that would be great help. Thanks. "Adding pay item during the the pay run in Myob essential / Business"
Payroll: Add pay item during pay run
Please allow payroll categories to be added or pay rates to be adjusted while in the middle of processing a pay run. Very inconvenient to have to run a separate run or cancel and start all over again. Thank you. "Adding a payroll category in middle of processing a payrun"
Report: Payroll verification report - Sort employees same as Create pay run window
When running a Pay Run it lists the employees alphabetically by their last name. When running the Preview Pay Details report it lists the employees alphabetically by their first name. Can we get this fixed to they list the same way? It's only happened since the Essentials Payroll upgrade. "Pay Run Reports Alphabetically"
Payslips: Email to another source as well as employee
We as MYOB partners process payroll for our clients, and some of our clients are used to getting payslip copies for each employee for every payrun. This option was available in the old essentials version, but after the new essentials version came out, the multiple emailing of payslips option has been removed. Currently only employees are getting the payslips. Please could this option be reinstated, as this helps clients in perusing the payslips without having to log into the MYOB dashboard. Further when the payslips are in their inbox, they can refer to all payslips for a particular employee if they need to consider it. Thanks Fred "Emailing payslip copies to client as well as to the employees"
Payroll: Contractor set up with GST payment (NZ)
Hi, I would love to see the addition of being able to add GST onto a contractors payment in Payroll. Contractors who have withholding tax deducted from their invoice but also have GST added on are common in NZ so an easy addition to Payroll would be so appreciated. Thanks "GST payment to contractor"
