Payday Super when paying wages in advance

We are a small business using AccountRight desktop. We pay weekly, and the business closes down over the Christmas period till mid January. Wages are paid by the owner by programming the payment date...

    Hi Nickisms,

     

    Yeah, totally get how processing it all at once is a difficult process-wise.

    What you’ve outlined is something you can do in AccountRight: set up the weekly pays in advance with the right future pay dates, send the STP reports, and run Pay Super over those pays, then keep paying staff from the bank on their usual weekly dates. For how that lines up with Payday Super rules for your business, it’s best to double‑check with your accountant or the ATO.

     

    And you’re not alone in wanting more control over the super payment date. Someone’s just popped this on the Ideas Exchange: https://community.myob.com/idea/myob-business-ideasexchange/payday-super---being-able-to-choose-date-of-payment/910892

    If that would help you, feel free to add a vote/comment so it’s on the product team’s radar.

Hi Genreve

 

Thanks for the link. I have added my vote and a comment. Hoping MYOB may find a way to make this happen at some point before Christmas. If not l will contact our accountant or ATO as you suggested.
