Payroll: Calculate PAYG using casual/daily tax table

[BrandonElephant]

Currently, MYOB Essentials payroll function automatically calculates the PAYG withholding amounts based on the ATO tax tables for full time / part time employees (https://www.ato.gov.au/Rates/Fortnightly-tax-table/). However, there is no inbuilt function to automatically calculate the PAYG withholding for CASUAL employees by reference to the correct ATO casual tax table (https://www.ato.gov.au/Rates/Tax-table-for-daily-and-casual-workers/). This means thousands of small businesses with casual employees are reporting incorrect PAYG withholding amounts (as Essentials is calculated the amounts based on the incorrect tax table). Can you please add a dropdown box in the Employee Profile where the employer can select "Casual" employee, and then have the PAYG withholding calculated from the CORRECT ATO tax table? Thanks
