Prior to commencing work and throughout proceedings, we were required to pay amounts to their trust account. These payments were entered as Spend Money transactions (including GST) as we had no invoices to allocate towards. As work is progressing, the law firm is sending though invoices and requesting approval to withdraw funds from our trust balance. How do I deal with this within MYOB? I want to ensure that GST is accounted for accurately. Initial trust funds were deposited last financial year so I'm not sure if this will complicate matters further. Change email address for delivery of monthly MYOB invoices Invoices for our monthly MYOB subscrition fee are currently being emailed directly to the owner of our business. The boss does not access MYOB herself and so does not have a MYOB login. The boss has changed her email address and the old email address will soon stop being monitored. We need to adjust where invoices are being sent to. I cannot find instructions on how to do this. The only options offered are to login as the user and change contact details. Obviously we cannot do this in this instance as she is not a MYOB user. Can someone please help change details? SolvedWrite Off Credit from Supplier We had a mobile phone account that was closed in May 2023 due to the phone being no longer in use. As the account was prepaid, there was a small amount that the phone company owed to us and we were advised we would receive a refund. The refund never arrived and as it is a small amount my boss has asked me to write off the credit from our payables to tidy it up. As this is from a previous financial year, what is the best way to go about it? STP Finalisation Report not matching Attempting to balance for EOPY and having issues. My Payroll Register and Payroll Activity reports match but my STP Finalisation Report does not. I've worked through the help topic "AccountRight reports don't match my STP reports" and narrowed the difference down to a specific payroll category however from what I can see the category is set up correctly. I've attached a screenshot of the payroll category setup. Where am I going wrong?! SolvedRe: Payroll Deduction for Lotto Thanks for your response, Sean. I know how to set up the deduction but I just wanted to check if I can then use the credit from the deduction and pay it to a 2nd employee with their pay? Payroll Deduction for Lotto The majority of our staff have dedided to start a lotto syndicate and have all chipped in cash for their participation in this. One employee has then volunteered to go and purchase the ticket with cash. We have one staff member who is working quite a distance from the office and would not be in a position to provide cash. This employee has asked for their lotto contribution to be withdrawn from their pay. Is it possible to set up the deduction wage category for the participation fee and then via payroll pay the amount to the employee who is purchasing the ticket? Or will I need to do this via the deduction and then pay the purchasing employee via a bank transfer? Change Account Codes to Transaction in Previous Periods Our BAS has been lodged and the period prior to 1 Jan 2022 has been locked. We've now flagged some invoices from last year that were coded to the wrong expense code. Is it going to create any problems if we unlock the period and change the account code? There will be no changes to the GST value or amount of the invoice. Paying Allowance to Separate Bank Account We have a new employee starting with us who may from time to time be asked to travel for work and when he is away is entitled to a travel allowance. He has asked for only his travel allowance to be paid to a separate bank account. Given that the amount will vary from pay to pay, is this possible? I can only see the option to select a certain value or percentage in the Payment Details tab for the employee card. Clearing out Electronic Payments for Payroll While reconciling the end of payroll year, our previous bookkeeper created a number of payroll transactions shifting payments between different payroll categories. For each payroll value there are 2 entries, one negative and one positve, therefore cancelling each other out. These entries are still sitting in the electronic payments window. If I tick the entries for processing I receive a message from MYOB advising against processing a negative disbursement (picture attached). How can I remove these transactions from the electronic payments window without it creating issues in my bank reconciliation? Solved
