Employee reimbursement through payroll
Hi, we used the below link to set up the reimbursement of an employee through payroll.
https://help.myob.com/wiki/display/myob/Reimbursing+an+employee#expand-2Createanewpayitem
The new pay item was created as per MYOB's instructions. We chose the ATO reporting category "not reportable" as it is simply a reimbursement for an expense incurred by the employee.
However, when running the payroll register report, the reimbursement has been incorrectly included in the gross salary & wages. The reimbursement is not part of the employee's wages, it is simply a reimbursement. For STP purposes however, it isn't being included in gross wages because of the not reportable selection.
The payroll register report and the employee's income statement do not match as a result.
Please help.
