It did shows to be an employer additional contributions , can you please check if the ATO reporting category is set as RESC (Reportable employer super contributions) having it set to this category will deduct from W1 field in the GST Return Report. Change the ATO reporting category for employer additional contributions to anything other than RESC and then it will deduct from W1 field in the GST Return Report.

You said

as per previous screen shots

You said

It is the W1 figure that I am concerned about - not reporting correctly

You said

The income statements seem correct

You said

that article does not help, its not salary sacrificed super - it is additional employer super

Business said

Please check this helpful article https://community.myob.com/t5/End-of-Financial-Year-EOFY/Salary-Sacrifice-Problem-with-STP/m-p/66515...

You said

as per the screenshots already previously sent

You said

the Gross wages reported at W1 is gross wages minus the additional employer super?

You said

the PAYG withholding is correct

You said

Please read my previous coversation, the last two payroll officers couldn't asssist

Business said

If you're referring to the prefilled BAS in Prepare BAS or IAS, these fields are prefilled according to the pay items selected in the W field set up. To check this go to Prepare BAS or IAS and click on Settings. Make sure all applicable pay items are selected in the W fields and then click on Update from ledger to refresh those fields. If you mean the GST return report in Reporting>>Business reports, check that Monthly PAYG Withholding is not selected.

You said

Business said

I understand. Can I have screenshots of the W1 report and the superannuation that was processed? As well as the details in the category for the additional super. Thank you.

You said

its contribution type is Employer additional (expense)

You said

its not

Business said

I understand, and you set up the additional superannuation on the Superannuation category, right? Its shouldn't be added on the deductions tab.

You said

The reportable additional super seems to reduce the W1 amount of the BAS?

Business said

Great, thank you so much. Let me clarify this one. Just for a moment please.

You said

yes

Business said

Hi Andrew, I just want to clarify something. The only issue that you are currently having is the W1 figures, right? No issues with the payroll reports?

Business said

Hi Andrew, I'm still looking into this. Please wait for a little bit more. Thank you.

Business said

I do apologize for the inconvenience, Andrew. Let me check into your concern. Please wait for a moment.

You said

I pay additional employer super for 2 employees, why does the additional employer super reduce the W1 figure when we prepare the BAS?

Re: I have 2 Employees we pay additional employer super for - when preparing the BAS W1 is reduce...

Hi @Andrew30 

 

Thank you for your post.

 

I'm sorry to see about your experience. Additional employer super may be reported as Reportable Employer Super Contribution (RESC) and Superannuation is outside the scope of the GST and does not need to be reported. If your lodging your BAS online click on Check field set up under the W1 find the category which your RESC associated to and exclude the this from the W1 field.

 

Our Help Article, Lodge your Activity statement online, has detailed instructions to assist with this.

 

Please feel free to post again I'm happy to assist.

 

If my response has answered your enquiry please click "Accept as Solution" to assist other users find this information.

 

Cheers,

Princess
