Super payments to contractors causing variance to YTD verification report

In order to pay contractor's super via Pay Super, I have set them up as employees with an employment basis of other.  When I run a Payroll activity summary report, their super is included, therefore the super amount is different to the super balance on the YTD verification report in the payroll reporting centre.

 

Do I need to change this?

 

Thanks Jen

    Thanks for your post. If the Employment Basis is set to Other information is not sent to the ATO so the contractor super payments will be reported in STP. If you need to report those super payments through STP you would need to change the Employment Basis to Labour Hire. Then process a $0 pay with payment date as the current date to update STP.
