Christian names ???

Question

About to commence payroll finalisation.   can someone please explain the logic in sorting by CHRISTIAN names ?  All of my reports are per SURNAME ?

This irritates me EVERY year.

Zero logic and seems from responses I've had no real move to change this.

Who lists anything of offical degree by 1st names? Ridiculous, imagine the electoral roll by first name order!

Next see how your payroll summary and bank payment list are in random orders.

I guess you get that when software is free, oh wait...it's not

Hi @echokim

Thanks for getting back to us and providing update on the issue.

Sorry for the confusion. When you process payroll and and print the payroll reports it should the surname first which is different from the ATO, which is set up by First name first.

If you need further assistance just let us know and we're happy to assist you.

This makes no sense to me.   I do not even understand what your second paragraph means - what table; the process payroll window does not have an advanced search that has employees - even so - WHY would you do it this way?

I pay everyone per fortnight - PER SURNAME.

I have printed off all of my EOFY payroll reports - PER SURNAME.

and - we get to the reporting centre - they are all PER First name.

Why do I have to mess about when my way is right - and I am sure that everyone agrees with me.

this needs a fix.
