Applying multiple tranfer to 1 payroll transaction

Hi, jackH1

Thanks for your post, and welcome to the MYOB Community Forum.

If there are two bank feed transactions showing up and you cannot match them to the payroll transaction because they differ in amount, then you may need to reverse and then reprocess that pay run. While reprocessing the pay run, make sure to create two separate payroll transactions based on the amount you receive in bank feeds. For more information on how to reverse and reprocess a pay run, please see the Help Article: Fixing a pay. Also, kindly check the employee payment details if it was set up to receive split payments for payroll. To do this, go to Payroll > Employees and then select the employee name > Payment details and then choose the correct payment method.

Please let us know if you require assistance with this.

Hi Doreen,

Thank you for your response, I was hoping there was a quicker work around thank reversing and redoing the pay runs for those periods.

Because the employee had split his wages into 2 seperate bank accounts this is causing the issue as they can not be applied to 1 pay amount. To recity this will I need to reverse the pay, then change his payment method to split payments entering the amounts to match the bank feed transactions, will this then let me apply the 2 seperate amounts to the 1 payroll transaction?

Thanks,

Thanks for your response.

For us to further assist you with this, kindly send us a screenshot of the payroll transaction and the bank feed transaction for the specific employee. This will help us provide more details on how to correct the situation. Make sure to remove any sensitive information before posting in the Forum.

Hi, jackH1

We hope everything is going well for you today. We just wanted to follow up on whether you still require assistance in matching payroll transactions to bank feed transactions.

Please feel free to reach out at any time if you require further assistance.

Hi Doreen,

Sorry, for the delay, please find photos attached.

Multiple transfers equal the total amounts but will not apply to the payroll transaction.

Thanks,

Hi, jackH1

We truly appreciate you taking the time to send the screenshots requested.

As per the screenshots, only one payroll transaction is processed and two bank feed transactions. With this, you won't be able to match the two bank feed transactions to only one payroll transaction. To correct the situation, you will need to reverse the payroll transaction. Once reversed, reprocess two payrolls, and the amount for each payroll to be processed will depend on the amount showing on your bank feed. This will allow you to match a payroll transaction to a bank feed transaction.

We have the Help Article: Fixing a pay. Go to Delete and reverse an employee's pay for more information on how to do it.

Feel free to reach out if further assistance is needed.

Best regards,

Hi Doreen,

Thank you for getting back to me.

Just to confirm, once the pay run has been reversed I will then need to reprocess but before that I will need to:

1. change the payment method for the emplyee to EFT

2. update to Split net pay between multiple accounts and the correct amounts as per the bank feed transactions

3. reprocess pay run

I appreciate your help with this.

Thank you,

Jacinta

Hi, jackH1

Yes, that is correct! If there's anything you need assistance with, feel free to reach out.

Hi Doreen,

I had followed all the above steps but unfortuntely it has done the same thing even after changing payment method to EFT for the employee its noted employee payment as Cash account. Would this be because its going by the previous payment method?

I reveresed, then reported as an updated pay run.

Is there something I am doing wrong?

Thanks again,

Jacinta

Hi, jackH1

Thanks for updating us.

If a pay run has been reversed, the payment method will be changed automatically to cash. After reversing the pay run, you will need to process 2 separate pay runs because there are 2 bank feed transactions sitting to match with a payroll transaction. The change of payment method to EFT is for future payments if an employee requests a split payment. You will no longer need to reprocess paying the employee in real life because the employee has already been paid. You may also refer to the following steps below:

• Reverse the pay run
• Reprocess 2 pay runs depending on the amount that is in the bank feed transactions
• Match the payroll transactions to the bank feed transactions

Let us know how it goes.

Best regards,

Doreen
