Updating Contractor GST details during an active pay run in MYOB
Hi, I am currently processing a pay run in MYOB business payroll that includes contractor withholding tax deductions, and I have encountered an issue when needing to update contractor details during the process.
For example, when I receive a contractor invoice that includes GST, I need to update the contractor’s GST information to ensure the payroll is processed correctly. However, once the pay run has been started, I am unable to update the contractor or employee details within the current pay run.
Could you please clarify the following:
Is it possible to update contractor or employee details (such as GST settings) during an active pay run in MYOB?
If changes are made, will they be reflected in the current pay run automatically?
Is there a way to apply these updates without having to delete or reverse the entire pay run and start again?
At the moment, I have to cancel the entire payroll and reprocess it in order to apply updated details, which is quite time-consuming.
I would appreciate your guidance on the correct process or best practice for handling this scenario in MYOB.
Thank you
Hi Spplift2021
You can't make changes to an employee part way through a payrun, you will lose the whole payrun and need to start again.
