STP Pay Run Summary Report

Question

I have a question regarding the configuration and display of items in the STP Runrun Summary Report.In particular I am finding that a Salary Sacrifice (RESC) is shown as a positive figure whereas a salary sacrifice for a motor vehicle pre tax (Salary sacrifice - other employee benefits ) is shown as a negative figure.&nbsp;For exampleSalary&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;$1000Less Salary Sacrifice (RESC)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ($&nbsp; &nbsp; 80)Less Salary Sacrifice MV pre tax&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;($&nbsp; 100)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; --------Subtotal&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;$&nbsp; &nbsp;820Tax&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;($&nbsp; &nbsp;200)Net&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;$&nbsp; &nbsp;620&nbsp;On the STP Payrun Summary Report it is shown asATO reporting categoryGross Payments&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $&nbsp; 1000PAYG withholding&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;$&nbsp; &nbsp; 200Salary sacrifice - other employee benefits&nbsp; &nbsp;($&nbsp; 100)Salary sacrifice (RESC)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 80&nbsp;My question is if it is correct to be showing the MV Sacrifice as a negative whereas the Super Sacrifice as a positive. Or is it simply a display issue but its good to go to the ATO?

Hi Legion.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Thanks for reaching out.&nbsp;

There different ways how to setup salary sacrifice pay category. Depending on how these were setup is how they are going to show on reports. May I collect screenshots of the payroll categories of both Salary Sacrifice - Other Motor Vehicle and RESC. Also, in Payroll Activity Summary Report and Register Summary Report are figures correct.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
We are looking forward to your response. If you have any other questions or concerns feel free to include them in your next reply.&nbsp;

Hi Legion,
&nbsp;
Thanks for the screenshot response.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
For salary sacrifice, it would only show as a negative amount in the pay run but a positive value in the summary report. Based on your calculation examples, the calculations of the gross wages less deductions to have the taxable income is correct. Although, this might look different in the STP Payrun Summary Report as long as the Payroll Activity Summary/Detail Report is accurate when compared to Register Summary/Detail report. This should be okay, as these would both be recorded as deductions.&nbsp;

Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.&nbsp;
