    Hi Journeystone 

     

    Thanks for your response. 

     

    If you do not want to reverse the pay runs, you can still continue with that. To match the bank feed transaction to the payroll transaction, you would need to create the bank file. By doing this, you will not have to reverse the pay runs. For more information on how to create a bank file so that the payroll transaction will show up when you match it with the bank transaction, kindly check The Help Article Making electronic payments.

     

    Please let me know if you need further assistance.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen

I would like to try the bank file to fix this immediate problem, rather than reversing the payroll as I have already reported it to ATO.  However I find the steps unclear: step 2. Set up a bank account for bank file payments:  it says to 'click the account your electronic payments will come from': is it meaning to 'create account' with the details it is providing as TEST?

 

I feel I am tripping at the first hurdle with this and am not confident at all that I am doing the correct thing.

Or does it mean to select the Electronic Clearing Account??
