Pay runs

Hello MYOB Community. 

Added in a new casual employee. 12 hours per week @$50 per hour. So it shows up as an annual wage of $31,200 on the information.

So I do a pay run and it shows a monthly pay run that has 4 weeks @ 12 hours per week. Go to the next screen and instead of a gross payment of $2,600 it comes up as $5000 (100 hrs) 

What am I doing wrong please? 

Thanks

Mark

  • Hi Mark

     

    Check both  the following 

    Salary and wages and  the standard pay tab in the new employee

     

    See if they agree and change if necessary

     

    Hope that helps

      Yes they all match. In the standard pay it comes up as 52 hrs and $2,600 as the monthly amount.  In the salary and wages section it looks like this 

       

      Pay basis 
      Hourly
      Annual salary $ 31,200
       
      Hourly rate $ 50

      Monthly
      Hours in a pay cycle 52

      Taxes
      PAYG Withholding
       
      Calculated
       
      When I do a pay run it comes out like this 
      Bulk select
       
       
      Select row 2
      Melinda Langlands  Gross 5,000.00       Tax 932.00      0.00       Net pay 4,068.00         Super 475.00
       
      Any thoughts?

        Hi Mark

         

        An observation - Are you in Australia? If so check your super - it should be 10% yours is calculating at 9.5%

         

        Change your allocated pay items for this emploee to just Base hourly ( delete wages)

         

        and then in the standard pay tab check what it says

         

        See if that helps

      It's OK I worked it out. You can't have standard pay and wages and salary as it doubles up. Why would they do that? 

      Oh well thanks for your assistance

        Glad you sorted it, employees should be one or the other I suppose thats why it happens

         

        Please check your super calculations though.

        Cheers
