MYOB Teams
Hi, I have an issue with how this module has been developed. I am the Bookkeeper and the Payroll Manager for a number of sites. I have now installed the MYOB Kiosk at 2 childcare services and have appointed the 2 approving Managers. So far so good. What I have an issue with is that the approving Manager/s can't have access to the Admin Portal without having to have access to the company file. BIG PROBLEM. An approving Manager should have access to the functions within the Admin Portal without having access to the MYOB company file. There's not enough flexibility to amend or add from the APP. It's functionality is painfully limited. In my view, these limitation render this system very inefficient in achieving optimal payroll automation. For example, some of our staff bank their 2 X 10 minute paid break and then take extra time at lunch time with many of them leaving the site during their lunch break. The approving Manager has no flexibility in adjusting this break time from the App, it has to be done from the Admin Portal, which they have no access to. Hence, they have to approve a time sheet which is incorrect and then email payroll to ask them to adjust. It's not efficient at all. It's not as automated as I was hoping and I think MYOB need to do better if they are going to provide this feature in their software. This is sub-standard development from MYOB. Not very happy to be perfectly honest.Pay Superannuation: Delete or hide reversed paysuper payments
There is currently no way to hide or delete authorised (or approved) PaySuper transactions so ones that need to be amended will still show as partially authorised (if 2 authorisations required) "PaySuper - delete or hide reversed paysuper payments"
Payroll Reporting (STP): Prior payroll years data
Hi MYOB, you recently made prior years EOFY finalisation information unavailable -i.e 2019/2020 and have only allowed the prior year and current year to be seen in the EOFY tab e.g. 2020/2021 & 2021/2022. I would like to suggest that you allow all previous years EOFY finalisatoin information and reports to be available so accountants and bookkeepers can check what has been reported to the ATO and confirm the finalisation process has been completed. I understand wanting to lock prior years so no amendments can be done due to timing, but we should still be able to view this information and download reports to have supporting evidence should we need to contact the ATO for any reason.

Hi everyone, I would love to have the job allocations as per the wages automatically allocatedagainst superannuation in the same proportions rather than superannuation having to be manually worked out and entered by job. This would make the entire job allocation & payroll process significantly quicker &easier and make job costings more accurate. Thank you Debra Anderson "Job allocations for superannuation" Legally BAS
Payroll: Ability to remove categories used on timesheets
We use timesheets and then process the payroll from there. It would be most useful to be able to deselect a wage category from individuals when the category is no longer used. This is not possible - the message that appears states:- This wage category is used on timesheets for this employee and cannot be deselected. Even if the category is in previous payroll years it is still not able to be deselected. Your consideration in fixing this would be appreciated. Thanks Judy "Remove payroll categories that have been used on timesheets"
Payroll: Inactive button for payroll categories
Creation of an "inactive" button for Payroll Categories. For example, when a employee has left the company & you don't want to see / choose that category from the list anymore you can't delete it because the system sees it as being used. So, it would be helpful if you could have something like an "inactive" button on the each categories, so it can be seen, or not seen from the selection list.

We use a different system for employee onboarding so all v2022.7 has done is to add yet another unnecessary mouse click to my processes. Please allow us to turn this off if we will never use this feature. If the MYOB solution becomes more customisable then we may look at it in the future but our onboarding process needs a lot more information than what this requests so if we use it, we would need to send multiple requests to the new employee which looks unprofessional. Also, we use custom fields for the emergency contact information so having that default to the notes section means we would need to cut and paste the answers anyway. Might as well cut and paste from elsewhere. "Provide an option to turn off employee self-onboarding prompt when creating a new employee card"Payroll: Child Support Protected Earnings
It would help if in a future MYOB releave that a standard payroll category deduction was created for Child Support payments which includes the Government stipulated Protected Earnings threhhold. If that happened then the Child Support amount could be entered for each employee and if they earn less than the protected earnings threshold, then the Child Support would not automatically deduct. Seeing that a large number of people are subject to Child Support payments, and that many employees are now Part Time or Casual, this really should be a standard MYOB feature.
