Hi spvw

When you process the Pay super payment, a transaction is recorded that clears the liability from the Superannuation payable account and posts the payment to the bank account.

If the Undeposited funds account has been selected in the Bank account field instead of the bank account, you can just move that amount from the Undeposited funds account to the bank account. You can do this by recording a Transfer money transaction, the From account is the bank account and the To account is the Undeposited funds account.

This will clear the amount from the Undeposited funds account and in Bank transactions you can match the Transfer money transaction to the bank feed transaction.

Please let us know if you need further help.

Thank you for your post.

When you create the super payment, you will see an "account" field, before hitting record make sure that the account listed there is the bank account from which you're paying.

Then when you are doing your reconciliation, on the bank feeds screen you can select "Match", and it will display the super payment as a possible match (as you selected that account when recording it earlier).

Thanks. For some reason this particular super payment says "Pay from ... Undeposited funds Account". Previous ones say "Pay from ... Cheque Account. That's why this is not working as previous.

I've had to fix up a few things like this in the migration to MYOB Business from Essentials and maybe this was also one.

How do I fix this? Can I edit the original super payment details?

Thanks.

    Hi Tracey,
    
    Closely related to my original question ... regarding super payments, how do you change the default "Pay from" account? Mine keeps going back to "Undeposited funds account", instead of "Cheque Account".
    
    So, I have to manually change the account each time I process a super payment. This can be easily overlooked like has already happend to me.
    
    Thanks.
    
    default:
    Pay from
    1-2000 Undeposited Funds Account
    
    desired as a default:
    Pay from
    1-1110 Cheque Account
