Editing Job Allocations in Payroll

Question

Hi,&nbsp;Just wondering if it possible to edit job allocations in payroll. I understand I can't change the overall payroll information once it has been submitted to the ATO via STP but the job allocations are for our reference only and not related to tax or the ATO.&nbsp;If this isn't currently possible, is there any chance MYOB will update this feature so job allocations can be editted without the hassle of reversing the entire payslip and resubmitting with STP?Or...could job allocations be entered after the payrun was submitted? This would make a big difference to our ability to report to the ATO in a timely fashion.&nbsp;Thank so much for any advice and help

Hi&nbsp;mlake&nbsp;

Once a payroll transaction has been recorded that particular transaction and values associated with that transaction are locked and you are unable to make changes to that transaction. If you are needing to make a change to that transaction i.e. update a wage value or change the jobs on a transaction you would be looking at deleting and reprocessing that transaction with the corrected values.

In saying that, if you are needing to change the jobs values on a transaction in some situations it may be better suited to record a journal entry to correct the job values. Below is an example of a journal entry to correct an incorrect job being selected on a payroll transaction:
