My problem has been solved - Susanna from the payroll team at MYOB solved the issue. I had ticked exempt from income tax in the payroll category which overrode the ATO classification. Unticked, then pushed through a zero payroll and all solved. Thanks Susanna!
Hi,
I think it is something to do with the pre-defiend payroll categories in MYOB. The Gross Pay on the STP window only includes the payroll categories you defiend as Gross Pay, which means other types of payment such as allowances, unused holiday pay, commisions, etc will not be included in the Gross Pay figure on the STP window.
What I have doen is to check the PAYG withholding figure on the STP window with my payment summaries verfication report to ensure they are match. I am not sure what each employee will see on their MyGove page (as I have not signed up one yet!) so hopefully all other payroll categories will be showing on their report but not just the 'understated' gross pay figure.
The bonus is designated gross pay by me via payroll categories. The report does not pick it up.
