EOFY - Employee Reimbursement

Hi,

 

I'm finalising Payroll for 2024/25 and the Payroll Summary Report doesn't match the YTD Verification Report for gross payments.

 

It has to do with an employee reimbursement that is not reportable. It is added to the total on to the Payroll Summary Report but excluded from the Verification Report. I think the Verification report is correct (this is the info that ATO has from STP reporting, right?), but the Payroll Summary is not?

 

How do I fix this?

 

Note: this question has been asked before but I couldn't reply to them. FYI, I haven't manually adjusted the employee pay history.

    Hi Richard1052​,

     

    Yep, you’re spot on! The YTD Verification Report only shows the amounts that the ATO actually needs for STP reporting, so things like employee reimbursements (which aren’t reportable) won’t pop up there. But you might still see them in your Payroll Summary Report, since that includes everything. If you double-check the EOFY Finalization tab, hit those three dots next to the employee’s name and you’ll see the full breakdown. Anything that’s not counted as gross payments is separated out for you. When you put the gross YTDs together from both places, they’ll match up.

     

    As long as your payroll transactions look right, your STP reporting lines up with what the ATO wants, so you’re good to wrap up those EOFY tasks. You might want to check this other forum post here that deal with the same thing.

     

     

    Cheers,

    Shella

    Hi Shella_A​ 

     

    Thanks Shella, and thank you also for the link to the other forum post.

     

    I think I get it. The totals between those 2 reports don't have to match as long as the non-reportable amount accounts for the difference between the reports. It looks good to me, so I will proceed, unless you have anything else to add.
