Hi, I have another work around that I used which works very well.
I will assume you have created an ABA file for the payrun and are trying to match it to the bank feeds.
- Please delete the ABA file and have the payslips go back into the electronic clearing a/c
- Go to the electronic clearing account , this time choose the "Payroll Clearing A/c" as the bank account and create the ABA file.
- In the bank feeds code the wages payment to the payroll clearing a/c and also the 40 cents.
- Now go to reconcile - choose payroll clearing a/c and tick them both off against each other and it should reconcile to NIL
If your unable to create the ABA file for the payroll clearing a/c just edit that in the chart of accounts to allow ABA and just input any numbers and codes as it won't actually be used for bank purposes.

I am sorry but I have no idea what a ABA file is and how to delete it and then re-install it. Surely like a payment you should be able to allocate 2 transactions to one payslip?
What I ended up doing is cancelling the payment and notified the ATO. Then ran the payrun for this one person again but added the extra 40c as tax (so the net would be what was actually paid from the bank account) and processed it and advised the ATO of the change. When I went back into MYOB the next day I was now able to match the transaction. I got the employee to pay back the 40c that I had transferred to her seperately in my initial attempt to match transactions.
What a mess and headache.

That isn't the best fix, PAYG isn't reported in cents so there will be an imbalance there and asking the employee to pay back 40 cents is a bit embarrassing, it does sound like you may need someone to guide you with the technical part of things. I do offer my services as a consultant if you need help let me know.

Its not the PAYG - its matching the actual pay to what cane out of our bank account. This has worked and balanced so its all good thats all that matters.
By the way for 40c I would pay it out of my own pockets - employee was not asked to pay the money back
