Expense reimbursement and payroll

[JennyPTA]

Hi, in the March BAS quarter, I put through an expense reimbursement to 2 employees through payroll and linked it to Wages and salaries. I find that I am out by that same amount in my YTD verification report. What do I do to fix this? The wages have been accepted by the ATO. All assistance is greatly appreciated.

Hi @JennyPTA 

Thanks for your post. What ATO reporting category did you assign to the Employee Reimbursements payroll category? If it was Not Reportable it won't be reported through STP.

Please let me know how you go.

Thanks. I overrided the wages account when I entered the expense reimbursement. My accountant suggested to do a simple reallocation from the wages account into the R&M expense account which has worked beautifully.
