Payroll EOFY Finalisation
Hi, I'm trying to finalise my payroll and send to the ATO. When select STP Reporting, I select Employee to finalise. The Employee Gross YTD is $32,867.13 in the list, It should have been $28,785.4...

Hi Fran - I posted something similar the tax thread yesterday - The YTD figure MYOB is reporting to the ATO is not matching the figures from the payroll register. After having a close look it makes no sense - sometimes it leaves off an overtime category, sometimes it is sick leave. It is not consistent across the particular payroll categories or across the staff. For some staff all appropriate categories were included - others not. It is definitely a MYOB reporting issue to the ATO. I have not had any replies to my post either and have no idea how to fix it - given there are no errors in my file causing this. Sorry I can not help but I am pleased it is not just me!

Hi Anna,
Nice to hear someone with similar issue.
Definitely MYOB YTD figure does not match gross payments in Payroll register.
It was ok for all employees, but only for one employee it shows a gross payments with included P.Leave, Overtime.
I've checked everything on my side, all ok, I've sent all reports to the ATO and they have accepted, that means it is all good.
Thanks Fran
Hi Fran_29
Personally I would get one (or more) of your employees to check their Income Statement through MyGov.
'Accepted' by the ATO does NOT mean the data is correct, it simply means your ABN was found, all TFN's were found on their systems and all numbers were in fact valid numbers, that is, there were no invalid characters in number fields.
MYOB Payroll Reporting Centre is poorly designed, data is sometimes missing even though it has been reported, or hard to find, and hard to check against your Payroll Reports. Sometimes the data has not been reported.
Only way to definitively check accuracy is to view the Income Statements. These are not available on ATO portals for the employer, only for individual employees.

Hi Gavin
This is my first time using the Single Touch Payroll, started this job in May. Used MYOB for 20 years up to 2019, but always did manual group certificates.
My Payroll Summary report and Payroll Activity Report, does not match up to the STP reports . I have only 8 employees, and 6 of them do not match with the Gross wages and their Taxes. I don't have anyone above me to question this, as I work for a P&C Committee, who are all volunteers. I've had very little training in the Single Touch Payroll reporting, and assumed I was entering them correctly from the wages that were processed.
I am not sure what to do and cannot get onto MYOB to discuss. If you have any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou
