    Welcome to the MYOB Community Forum, I hope you find plenty of useful information.

     

    If a employee wishs to reduce their PAYG then any additional Super they pay is a Salary Sacrifice not Employee Additional. And it should be treated as a R.E.S.C. for STP.

    The Employee Additional has always been used for after tax amounts so it is Not Reportable in the STP.

    Hi Graeme,

     

    So to clarify, i now cant use Employee Additional Super as i had been.  Now with STP i need to set the employee up as Salary Sacrafice only and this will allow me to choose a ATO Reporting Catagory and will show on my reports for reporting super, is this right?

     

    Thanks Chrisy
