STP YTD Verification Report doesn't balance with Accountright Payroll Activity report

Hi 

After spening several hours on the phone to MYOB Yesterday and today and not being able to even get through i am desperate for some help with the above problem.

I have followed all the instructions that appear on the Forum except for processing a Zero pay in the 2021/2022  FY. And I still have the same problem.

Can I process a 0 pay for 2021/2022 if I have already processed a pay in 2022/2023 FY.

  • Hi LorraineBFP

     

    Please check to see if your Payroll activity and Payroll register report match in AccountRight, 

    • If they DON'T, this generally indicates that a manual adjustment has been made in Pay History in the employee card. If this is the case, you will need to change the Pay History back to what it was and process any changes/adjustments through Process Payroll. Then process a $0 pay to update STP.

     

    • If they DO, this generally indicates that the issue is being caused by ATO reporting categories that have not been assigned correctly or by payroll categories that have exempted from PAYG Withholding in error. Follow these steps to find and fix the issues:
    1. Run the Payroll Activity Detail report to narrow down which payroll categories are causing the problem.
    2. Check that the correct ATO reporting category has been assigned. Change the ATO reporting category as required.
    3. Check if the payroll category has been ticked exempt from PAYG in error (Payroll Categories>>open the category>>click on the Exempt button). Untick PAYG Withholding and click Ok.
    4. Once you have made the necessary changes to the payroll category, send an update event dated 30/6/22 to update STP.

     

    Do let me know how you go.

      Hello Melisa_D 

      Thank you for your advice, I had done all of what you advised and nothing was fixed.

      However after being on the phone the MYOB for several hours and after running a further zero payroll it is magically fixed it ......

      Just worried about the young guys that went & did their tax returns before this was fixed. 

       

      Kind regards
