Default Super Fund

Hi, does MYOB allow a default super fund to be set up like the ATO used to. At the moment it is coming up with errors regarding member numbers? I am asking on behalf of an entity in a remote community in Norther Territory where persons havent had a super fund. Please advise how we go about setting up a super fund for them? 

  • Hey TanyaBennett​ 

    MYOB does allow for a default super fund to be set up. You can follow the instructions below to get started:

    1. Click the settings menu (⚙️) and choose Payroll settings.
    2. on the General payroll information tab, choose your Default superannuation fund.
    3. Click Save.

    If a new employee chooses your default fund, you'll need to contact the fund so they can allocate a membership number. You can check out this page for details on setting an employee's super fund.

    Hi, My client has selected Australian Super for the default. They called the fund and then said they had to call MYOB to set the default up? Can you please advise what we have to do?

    Hey TanyaBennett​

    The instructions to add a default super fund are listed above. You'll need to check this page first to make sure the super fund is available to pay from your MYOB file.
