Leave loading did not attract super

[SWI-Accounts]

Good morning.

I have a problem with the payroll function

One of our staff was taking leave and when i was doing his payroll, I realise when i entered the figures for annual leave loading, the super did not accumulated.

I have checked the " ATO reporting category" for the "Leave loading" but everything is the same with the "Annual leave pay" which do attract super.

Anyone can advise please

Thank you.

Hi @SWI-Accounts 

Thanks for your post. If your leave loading payments need to accrue super you will need to include those amounts in the super calculation by doing the following:

1. Go to the Payroll command centre and click Payroll Categories .
2. Click the Superannuation tab.
3. Click the zoom arrow to open the Superannuation Guarantee category.
4. Click Exempt and deselect the leave loading wage category.
5. Click OK, then click OK again.

A just to clarify on the ATO reporting categories, they are the filters used by STP to determine where payroll categories appear in your STP reports. 

Please let me know if you need further help.
