Hi there, I can see alot of other users having the same issue, but I wanted to get some kind of answer to why the terminated employees figures are not calculating when trying to match the Payroll Summary report and the YTD Verification Report??? I have gone through the Payroll activity report and each individual employees YTD report and found its not Payroll Category related, and more terminated employees issue. We switch to Phase 2 about 2 months ago and its seems we perhaps should have waited until the new Financial year as its causing alot of headaches. As you can appreciate this is a time crucial matter to get this finalised by 14th. Can a MYOB agent please advise how to correct this? Thank you Michaela Johnson

I am having the same issue nothing is balancing to the STP veriffcation report. Looks like changin to STP2 mid stream has not brought all the figires into STP2

I only had 4 to reactivate. 3 came up on the YTD verification as zero,1 showed up a figure from 1 category. Fortunatley it was the only time this category had been used so was easy to identify. With this and reading your post I knew I was finally on the right track. It's been like looking for a needle in a haystack. If MYOB were invetigating the issue, why not advise users of the potential glitch?

I have just deleted all of my employees termination dates, processed a NIL payrun for the terminated employees and then re-entered the termination dates. My reports then balanced. This worked for me and I had 22 employees to do. Just make note of your termination dates. I hope this helps.

BabyBam21 Hi there. Im currently waiting for a call from a specialist Payroll person. I lodged a case this morning and had to email them screen shots. They acknowledged there is an issue and it is with the developers to resolve. But i urged a callback as this issue is time senstive. One solution was to re-active terminated employees and try that. But i have over 50+ employees to re-activate and that would be very time consuming.... So i will await a call within 72 hours and hopefully get a better outcome.

My payroll activity summary report agree with individuals total and totals at soon as I go into EOY finalisation but when I click to download PDF report this has totally diffferent amounts. I have no ETPs. My terminated employees values are more than difference. ????

Accountright - STP Finalisation reports don't match

I am having the same issues.
My ETP Payments are not showing on the End of Year Verification Reports.
I have tried all the suggestions MYOB gave. Removing their Termination Dates and reversing pays, and re-recording new pays. This didn't work.
Then I was informed to try reversing them all again and re-entering the pay with a new date. This didn't work either.
I lodged this issue, however haven't had a response. I don't want to try more reversals, as the pays are becoming a bit of a mess.
If anyone gets answers, please send through to me :) Thanks all.

  I just discovered that for my terminated employees, I had to also add their "Income Type" on the Taxes page of their employee records.
  I made them active; removed their termination date; added their income type; and ran a $0 report for them and now my figures work. I did not need to reverse and redo termination pays.

  Did you have a pay type allocated for the terminated employees?
  
  I have just successfully followed the instructions, but had to go back to the terminated employee's card and enter the type of payment, eg salary and wages (the box was previously blank). I believe this brought it in line with STP2 requirements.
  
  My reports now balance.
  
  Good luck.

    However, If you have moved to STP Phase 2, terminated employees need to be made active and their termination dates removed prior to moving. If this wasn't done they won't be reported in Phase 2.
    
    To fix the terminated employees you will need to make them active and remove their termination dates. Then send an update event or $0 pay with payment date as 30 June for all employees not reporting correctly. Wait until that report has been accepted and then recheck the YTD verification report.
    
    Once the terminated employees are reporting correctly you can re-enter their termination dates and make them inactive.
    
    Please let me know how you go.

I am having the same problem - My figures are correct, it is just employees that have been terminated showing incorrect totals on their summary of payments report. How do we fix this? Can we somhow reverse termination date and run a zero pay?

    I just reversed the termination pay (initially done under STP1)and then redid with a payment date one day later than the first pay run, as suggested in the instructions.
    Wrong ETP values in STP reports - MYOB AccountRight - MYOB Help Centre
    I also had not completed the ETP benefit type in the first termination pay, but did so in the rerun.
    It is now all flowing through correctly to YTD Verification report

I only had one terminated employee. I had to reactivate, then went into the card for that employee and saw that the salary type was blank and not assigned to "Salary and Wages". Once I added this and did a zero pay the figures were all correct. I then had to deactivate and send the termination again to the ATO. This worked for me.

I had the same issue.
What a pain! Does it have to be so hard to close payroll year?!?!
I investigated by going into each summary: for some terminated employees Gross Income was not reported, for some Super, for some PAYG... no logic at all.
After reading different suggestions I did the following:
- Checked settings for all payroll categories (all was OK)
- Reactivated all 60 + employees.... one by one... did not take long.... just half a day
- While in their cards, checked details and added Income type for those who were missing after STP Phase 2 update (Salary and Wages)
- Processed $0 pay run dated 30/06, (making sure that Pay advice was not emailed).... another few hours... and submitted Update event to ATO
It appears that all discrepancies are sorted now. So I finalised and sent to ATO.
It's past 8 pm now and I can go home ....
Tomorrow is my first weekly pay run for this year and I guess I will start early and spend another morning terminating all inactive employees. Oh, dear. At least it will be done and I can sleep.
Hope it can help someone.

  I look after several different businesses and I have had different issues with each.
  
  01. The totals on the YTD Gross didn't match my payroll reports from MYOB. I had to individually go through and find which employees were incorrect. This took ages.
  Some were terminated employees, which obviously didn't show any wage amount on the YTD Finalisation due to rolling over to STP2 mid year. Some were not terminated employees, and I have no idea why they didn't show. Some were employees that I had paid in July 2021 and had the pay period amounts of (28/06/21 - 04/07/21). The STP2 system didn't like that part of the pay period fell into the previous financial year i am guessing. When I reversed this pay and re-recorded, I had to pu the pay period as (01/07/21 - 04/07/21).
  
  02. None of my ETP Gross payments are showing ont he YTD Verification Report. Only the ETP PAYG. I have tried all of the different ways (Several times), now have a massive mess of reversals in my system. I have been on the phone to MYOB (On hold for 2 hours), and they gave me information that didn't work. I have tried everything.
  
  It is very frustrating.
  Hope this can be fixed soon, so we can all have a better day today.

Me too. I have re-activated term employees. Did a Zero run for all employees (47) waited overnight just in case.
Still no ETP Figures. I have reversed the term pay and re did it - then ran a Zero pay for one guy - waited overnight again and still no ETP figures. I did have a similar issue last year and made a mess of a couple of guys year end figures reversing and putting them back in again. Could not work it out - I tried to make the ETP before and after tax but eventually I got the totals to match their MYOB wage records to the ATO STP but I do not want to do all that again this year. SO Please let me know when it has been resolved. Can we do our next payroll in the meantime?

  Still no ETP coming up in the STP YTD or on employee reports

    SandraJorgo have you checked term. employees' Income Type?
    To check
    Card Information - Payroll Details tab -Taxes.
    Should be: Income Type: Salary and Wages
