We've moved to STP 2 and throughtly regret it so far!
First pay of the year and I've hit issues with salary sacrifice. The way it's been processed in the past means it is a negative number which the STP submission report has a negative number and is rejected by the ATO.
How do we process salary sacrifice now??
Ive modified their categorisation to not reportable to get payroll through and will adjust once Myob fixes the issue which I have to report
That's probably the only sensible workaround at this stage - good thinking!
I've since found out that the Myob work around is:
At the time of processing the payroll, do not submit the STP report (cancel it) then go to the Payroll Reporting and now in the browser to Single Touch Payroll reporting - you'll see the report is 'unsent'. Now send it. The issue is the interface, not the 'negative' data. The ATO should accept the report. I did this with one pay and it has worked, no problem at all.
