    Hi TomD 

     

    When processing final pays we recommend the following order:

     

    1. record the final normal pay, to ensure all entitlements have up-to-date accrual balances
    2. record the termination pay
    3. enter termination information in the employee card
    4. terminate the employee in STP

    Once you have entered the termination information in the employee card the employee will not appear for selection when processing a pay run so you would need to do this step after all pays have been processed.

     

    If you get an error when recording a pay run that it has failed the STP, click on Update details to check the error code. Or, you can click on Payroll Reporting>>Check Payroll Details in the desktop to view any issues. Please feel free to send us screenshots of any errors so that we help resolve them.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.

I have managed to make the last payment after lots of trial and error and frankly I am not totally sure which of the changes fixed the problem.  It may have been changing the start date or changing the payment cycle or switching between the desktop version and the online version.  The issue is that at times MYOB chokes and either does not provide any error or the error message is so vague as to be useless.  Most of the time when I come here, some expert is able to help and I appreciate that a lot. This time however there was no response at all.  I am mainly disappointed that MYOB has no direct support anymore - as we have to rely on the software and everything is now so tightly integrated with the ATO, it's just not an option to delay and hope for the best.  Any other software I subscribe to has some decent email or chat support in addition to a forum with volunteers.
