payroll - Incorrect details sent to ATO

[vulcanogelato]

I processed a payroll and as I didn't create a bank file I deleted an employees payroll as it was incorrect. I then processed the correct payment for that employee which created another ATO report which I sent.  The problem I now have is that the first payroll sent to the ATO has that employees incorrect payment details. If I put through a reversal so the ATO receive the correct YTD figures the employees payroll details will be incorrect in MYOB.  I don't know how to fix this

Hi @vulcanogelato 

Thanks for your post. STP updates the YTD amounts each time a report is sent and each report overrides the previous one. So you need to make sure the YTD amounts are correct in the software, they will then be automatically updated in STP.

If you delete a payroll transaction the YTD amounts are reduced in the software by that payrun, when you send the next STP report the YTD amounts will be updated to reflect that deleted payrun.

If you reverse a payroll transaction the YTD amounts are reduced and a report is sent through STP to update the those amounts.

To check if the correct YTD amounts have been sent to the ATO, in the Payroll reporting centre>>Reports tab>>click on the last report sent and click on View report. 

Please let me know if you need further help.

so basically I will have to wait until next weeks payrun to check if the ATO and my software figures match

Hi @vulcanogelato 

If the YTD amounts are correct in the software, check the last STP report sent. If the YTD amounts are not correct in the STP report you can send an update event to update those figures or wait until the next pay run when they will be automatically updated.
