Hi VE1,
Thank you for your post.
Regarding this, one option is you could create a payroll category for the deduction. We have an article that explains how to do this when an employee has non-work deductions. This help article, deductions will give you the detailed information and steps to assist you with this. Please note that if the deduction was to a third party you might want to double-check that the process is the same in your situation with the ATO or an accounting advisor for your specific situation.
If you need further help, don't hesitate to start a new post and we'll be happy to assist.
