Superannuation

In payroll categories I moved all employees to 10% super however one person went to 10.9%. I went back in and check everything but this seemed fine. Everyone else was the 10%.

Any ideas?

 

Thank you

  • Hi Marist5002 

     

    Thanks for your post. I'm glad to hear that you've sorted this issue.

     

    I'll just put the answer here for the benefit of other users:

     

     

    Super is calculated on a monthly basis like this: 

    The amount of pay for the month MULTIPLIED by the current super rate MINUS super already calculated for that month.

     

    This means that if you have processed a pay with the payment date in July and super rate at 9.5% then change the rate to 10%, the software adjusts the super calculation for the next pay so that 10% is accrued for the whole month. 

     

    You don't need to make any super adjustments going forward as the software has done it for you. You can check by running the Payroll Activity detail report for the month of July and making sure that super is 10% of OTEs.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.
