Hi Doreen,
I understand that child support can be set up and deducted through payroll. My point is, just like what you said, they still need to be reported to Services Australia separately which adds extra workload to users and adds chances to get it wrong. Since child support deductions can be reported through STP and MYOB has realised this function in Exo Payroll, why does MYOB decide not to push this function to all its platforms? From the forum I can see users have been asking for this function for years but MYOB just keeps ignoring it.
Hi Didi_He,
Totally hear where you’re coming from. If you’d like to push this forward as a product suggestion, the best place is our AccountRight Ideas Exchange board. That’s where our product team looks at feature requests and workflow improvements, so it’s the right spot to raise the need for child support deduction reporting through STP.
Cheers,
Doreen
