Super Payments Appearing in Total on ABA file

Hi

 

Correct me if I am wrong, but my super payments appear in the total that comes up on the ABA file when I go to pay employees. It was my understanding that this was paid to their super fund, not to their bank account. Is there a way to fix this? Do I also have to reverse previous payments that I have made previously to remedy super that was paid to them that was meant to be in their super fund?

    Hi there AmeliaTodd,

     

    Yes, you are correct. Super payments shouldn't be included on the ABA file to pay to the bank. Instead, it should go to the super fund. The reason why superannuation is being included on the ABN file is due to an incorrect setup of the Superannuation Guarantee. Make sure that  the linked payable and expense categories are correctly assigned to the correct accounts. You can find this by going to:

     

    • Payroll.
    • Pay items.
    • Superannuation tab, then select Superannuation Guarantee.

     

    Check this link for more information.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen
