Superannuation
If I have paid an employee super twice and doubled up, can I enter zero super in next pay run? The super has been accepted and paid.
Hi Businesspro,
Thank you for your response. You're right. For an overpayment refund, you will need to get in touch with the superfund. Once this is done, you can proceed with the super payment along with the pay run during the next pay period as usual.
Feel free to create a new thread if you require any other assistance.

Hi Genreve
I will contact the Super Fund to return the overpayment. However I already Reversed the incorrect pay run to cancel it out in Myob. Is this okay? Even though I haven't received the refund as yet.
When I reversed the extra pay run it automatically was a negative superannuation figure as well as all items, base hours, leave and sick accrual. I assume this is enough as it was sent through STP and "accepted". That means all I need to do is allocate the refund in the Bank Feeds when it appears. Is this correct?
Hi Businesspro,
Thank you for the update. Since you have reversed the whole pay run, as the ATO accepted this, it will not be recorded to the ATO. What you'll need to do next is reprocess the pay run with the correct superannuation payment amount. This will correct the figures in the ATO containing the correct pay super amount for the pay period.
Once you receive the refund for the overpayment, you may record it as received money to allocate the refund correctly.
Feel free to reply if you need further help. I also recommend getting in touch through our online help center, MOCA, whenever you need immediate assistance.

Hi Shella,
The pay run was put through twice. So the ATO have the correct pay run which was intially entered with the correct super amount, which the STP shows it has been "accepted". The extra pay run that was entered which shouldn't have been put through, has also be "accepted" as well as the Reversal I made for that extra pay run, which has also been "accepted" through STP. If I reprocess another pay run it will be another extra double up again. Does that make sense? Or maybe I'm not understanding you?.... MOCA asked me to email Payroll directly and Payroll weren't any help at all!
