Accidentally sent payroll to ATO as update event not pay event

Thanks Gavin - I still need a bit of clarification please.

1) Is this correct - when you send a payrun "Update event" or a New pay event" then the total gross paid & tax withheld for the employee is used to overwrite current ATO data for that employee?

2) In error, I sent a new payrun as an "Update Event" for 1 employee instead of a "New Pay Event" so under "MYOB Payroll - Single Touch Payroll Reporting" it shows "Gross Wages" & "PAYG Withholding" as $0 each. So does this mean the pre-populated BAS online will be incorrect and so I assume I can manually change gross wages (W1) & PAYG (W2) - is that right?

3) As the payrun is correct in MYOB can I just leave it as is or do I have to reverse it and then resend it to ATO as the correct "New Pay Event"?

Thanks

Mary

Hi Guy

Thank you for your prompt response. I followed your steps below to reverse my payrun and resend as a New Event as I wanted the ATO online IAS & BAS to show the correct amounts in the pre-filled fields. I've added 1 more step to you list below for other users reviewing this post:

If you want to reverse the payrun and resubmit it, you can do that as follows by selecting:

1 - Click Payroll

2 - Click Payruns

3 - Click date of payrun you want to reverse

4 - Click name of employee to open pay info popup

5 - Click "Reverse Pay" button in bottom left corner of popup.

6 - Do the same with all other employees in that payrun.

7 - Send report to ATO it will show as a negative amount

8 - Then, create a new payrun.

Regards
