Clear out super payments

Currently there is no way to clear out super payments from Pay Super that have been made through SGC statements (ATO). It's my understanding that this can be done in Account Right, but not Business Pro. Can you look into this please.

    Hi Carmen,

    Thanks very much for the update.  I am sorry to hear that Business Pro does not allow for that.  As I was typing my reply out, I did wonder if it was not going to work for Business Pro, as per Jessica's original comment, but I was half there so decided to continue in case it helped somebody out :) 

     

    I very much appreciate your reply to let me/others know.  

    Merry Christmas

    Hi Lisa, Thank you for this explanation. We only use MYOB to prepare pay runs & submit to ATO then we pay outside of the system, our bank accounts are not linked to MYOB so the bank account has never been reconciled. (We use a different system for our accounting). I would like to bring our Super liability account to $0.00 as of 01/04 so I can start to use MYOB to pay Super. Can I just Pay Liabilities as you describe above but just use the bank account and then I don't need to do the reverse journal? Thanks in advance.

    Hi TheRousk​ I think steps up to 7 still apply, but instead of choosing cash drawer/suspense account, you would use bank.  I still think you need to do the journal entry as per step 8, but again yours would be to bank. 

     

    BUT I would check between steps 7 and 8 by running a General Ledger [Summary] or viewing your accounts list, that the Superannuation Liability account is now back to zero (or whatever amount it "should" be - i.e. amounts currently payable for Super).  

     

    I am just struggling to confidently say you will/will not need to do the reversing entry.  But as you said, if your bank account is not used/reconciled in MYOB, then you can use this account as you please.  

     

    Let me know if you have success?

    Thank you so much, I am still doing it FY by FY but it seems to be working well, super liability account heading towards zero. Doesn't look like I need the reverse entry. I appreciate your help & prompt response, you are very kind to help me, enjoy your weekend.
