Hi Doreen
Thank you, But what if Centrelink paid us how do we process his wages. should we process as normal wage (base hourly ) or create PPL account and is tax included
Hi Sharma18,
Thanks for the follow‑up question. I know paid parental leave can be a bit confusing, but the “Paid parental leave” help article Doreen linked has a step-by-step guide on how to record it in the software.
In short, you’ll set up a separate liability account for the Centrelink paid parental leave, pay it using a separate wage category in your pay runs, and make sure that category is exempt from accruing leave and super. It’s all outlined in the article.
Regards,
Genreve
