Allocating superannuation and work cover to job numbers

Hi All,

We have a client who needs to manually allocate superannuation and work cover to jobs. It seems that this can only be done via the pay run.

I've tried specifying the payroll categories to the timesheet, but I get an error that they are invalid payroll categories (probably becuase they are superannuation and expense types).

It doesn't look like there is any MYOB endpoints to setup/edit a pay-run from what I can see?

Is there any way we can import / setup the pay run so that superannuation and work cover expenses are allocated to their jobs rather than admins having to do this by hand for hundreds of employees every week?

Any tips would be appreciated

Thanks!

  • Hi Ben

    The only way Ive found to archive the result of allocating superannuation and workcover to jobs is by creating a separate General Journal Entry that credits the total split to no job and then has a separate debit line for each job.

    To calculate the splits you can run a profit and loss by job for the period and then identify the wages accounts to be split to work out the percentage splits. If you have many you could transform and summarise the data to provide the values your after. If you have many and want to automate it further you can access MYOB data directly using a connector like OdataLink
