Hi Kaz610,
Thanks for reaching out and for outlining your current process, that’s really clear and sounds very organised. You’re right that you don’t have to use MYOB Pay Super specifically. If you’re happy using your existing clearing house, you can keep doing that, as long as:
- The clearing house is SuperStream‑compliant, and
- From 1 July 2026, it can make sure contributions reach your employees’ super funds within the required Payday Super timeframes (generally within 7 business days of payday).
Because you’re already paying super weekly and sending it through the clearing house on the same day as payroll, you’re essentially working to the new “pay super with wages” rhythm already, which is great. Here’s a link for more info about Payday Super: Payday Super: A Complete Small Business Guide.
In terms of your AccountRight workflow, nothing in the payroll processing steps themselves will change just because you’re using an external clearing house instead of MYOB Pay Super. You’ll still:
- Process the weekly pay run in AccountRight.
- Use your clearing house to lodge the super amounts.
- Pay wages and super from your internet banking as you do now.
If at any point you decide you’d like to bring super payments into AccountRight and avoid the manual clearing house step, Pay Super is there as an integrated option, but it’s not mandatory.
Regards,
Sai
