    Hi JennyS76​ 

    Check with the Tax Accountant if they want the director set up as an employee and have tax withheld, or if it is just to be done as a spend money transaction and allocted to a new expense account called Director's fees, prior to doing anything.

    Hi @JennySharp,

     

    You would need to set up the director as an employee, add a payroll category for director fees, and run payroll as usual. With STP Phase 2, there's now an ATO reporting category for Director's fees, so those payments get flagged to the ATO as such. Check these help articles below that will guide you through the process.

     

    Add an employee

    Payroll categories

    Assign ATO reporting categories

     

     

    Cheers,

    Shella
