    Hi ShieldBooks 

     

    Does the employee who's wages are missing have a different pay category from the other employees?

     

    If so, you might like to check that that employee's category is setup correctly in your BAS/IAS setup.

     

    If you lodge your BAS/IAS manually:

    Go to the PAYG-W section of the BAS/IAS and click the [Setup] button next to the W1 figure.  Ensure that this employee's pay category is ticked.

     

    If you lodge your BAS/IAS using the Online method

     

    If you need to change your tax code setup, authorised person, or change how year-end adjustments recorded in AccountRight affect your BAS:

    1. Open your AccountRight online company file.
    2. Click Prepare BAS/IAS in the Accounts command centre.
    3. In the Lodge Online tab, click Prepare Statement.
    4. Click the Settings option.

    If you change the tax code setup, it will not affect any returns that are already in progress. You’ll need to open the statement that’s in progress, choose to Edit it, and then click Update from ledger, to use the new tax code setup details.

    Update from ledger

    Note that doing this will replace the values of all fields that are automatically calculated based on the tax code setup.

     

    Hope this helps,

    Hi Alan

     

    thanks for the very helpful screen shots and guides.  Very good and appreciated.

     

    I had done this as for some reason, the user had duplicated the salary category 🤨- but it was not helping

    until I saw a spot on the top right hand side of that BAS window which siad ' update ledger' I think I recall ?

    and this brought the changes through the activity statement I was hoping to see to now be correct.

     

    thanks again - myob are lucky to have people like you on the forum !
