Query re MYOB report "Amount by Category (Payroll Tax)" - Not assigned

Question

I have just run the report&nbsp;"Amount by Category (Payroll Tax)" for 2022-2023&nbsp; (Reports &gt; Payroll &gt; Payroll Tax &gt;&nbsp;"Amount by Category (Payroll Tax)".&nbsp;&nbsp;I am not sure why some of my Wages payroll categories are not in the top section of the report under "Wages/Salaries" but have ended up at the bottom of the report separated in a section called "Not assigned".&nbsp;&nbsp;Below is an image of the report, I've blanked out bits that I thought aren't needed.&nbsp; Also below are the examples of the payroll categories that landed in the "Not assigned" section.&nbsp;I would greatly appreciate it if anyone has any suggestions on why this happened, and how\if I can correct it.&nbsp; The categories do have staff assigned to them.&nbsp; The staff are still current employees.&nbsp;

I think I have been able to correct my issue after reading another post answered by Sam_R on this post: STP Phase 2 Payroll Tax Reporting )

I checked to see whether each of the categories showing as "not assigned" were set up as taxable or non-taxable.

As per Sam_R instructions.... "To check this, please navigate to the 'Setup' dropdown > 'General payroll information' > 'Set up Payroll Tax' > please check here if the category in question has a 'tick' next to it or not. If the category isn't ticked, this means you do not wish tax to calculate on it, hence - not reflecting on the Payroll Tax report. "

After ticking my 4 categories showing on the report as "Not assigned" they have now moved back up with all the other Wages categories.

I guess the next thing I'm going to have to worry about is whether I now have to sort out something to do with tax. I'm thinking since the tax year has passed it is possibly too late.

Have you checked that the categories are set up for payroll tax. From the top menu, select Set Up, then General Payroll Information. This opens a new dialog box, chose Set Up Payroll Tax. Again a new dialog box opens, make sure the pay items are ticked. See attached file
