How to enter Employee Pay history part way through the Payroll year
If you've started using MYOB part-way through the payroll year, you can enter your employees' payroll history in 2 different ways, as a record of the amounts that you've paid them this year.
1) Processing Payruns, for example, if you've started using MYOB in December, you can record monthly pays for July - November to input the employee's payroll history.
2) Alternatively, You'll need the pay details (wages and other earnings, tax and super) for each employee for each period you're entering.
Make sure you've completed your other payroll setup tasks, including reviewing your pay items and assigning them to your employees.
To enter pay history
- Go to the Payroll menu and choose Employees.
- Click an employee's name to open their record.
- Click the Payroll details tab.
- Click the Pay history tab.
-
Choose the period you're entering Pay history for.
If you choose to enter monthly pay history, you'll need to repeat these steps for each past month in the current payroll year.
-
Enter amounts against each of the employee's pay items, including their wages, deductions, taxes, and expenses. For leave pay items, enter the hours accrued.
For deductions the employee has paid, enter the values as negative amounts.
- Repeat steps 5-6 to enter pay history for additional months or quarters.

- Repeat from step 2 to enter pay history for other employees.
Opening leave balances
If an employee has leave owing from before you started using MYOB, refer Set up leave for how to record their carry over leave balances.
