Paydays fall on Christmas day and New Year Day
Just refreshing my brain as I am self-doubting myself my payroll ends on a Tuesday night for Payment on a Wednesday With Christmas day and New Year's Day falling on a Wednesday I know the banks will still process the payments but before 7-day banking came along we had to pay payroll the day before a public holiday. I can't find anywhere that this RULE still applies so I am assuming it is no longer a rule since 7-day banking came along, and I can just set the payrolls to pay out on the set days (both Wednesdays ) ?
Final pay - including payment of 2 weeks in lieu of notice period
Hi, I need to do a final pay for 2 employees who have ceased employment with us, we are paying out their 2 weeks notice instead of them working this time out. If I add '80 hours' into their final pay, along with their actual hours worked for this last week + annual holidays won't the tax rate be incorrect (i.e it will be 1 large payment, taxed at a higher than normal tax rate). How do I amend their tax rate so it taxes them correctly. Or can I do 2 or 3 pay runs with todays 'payment' date, but for future periods? (i.e the next 2 weeks?)Paid Parental Leave
I have a staff member who is going on PPL in a few weeks and I am trying to make sure I am sorted as it has been over 5 years since I last had to deal with PPL and obviously not in the new Payroll system. I see there are 2 options on how to deal with PPL, (excluding the employee, or including the employee from pay runs) and the easiest for me is to exclude the employee. MYOB says to add a termination date and then re-instate the employee when (if) they start back, however I am worried that this would mean they aren't accruing the Annual Holidays they are entitled to? Previously in the old system you were able to go into the employee tab and change their status to 'on PPL' so I am just wanting to double check I am doing it correctly. Also, we were told last year that the Split Pays function would be back this year - do we have an updated time frame for this as I have staff asking for this to happen? Thanks in advance :-)
Filing GST through MYOB - Only GST Periods from 2022 are showing
I'm trying to file my GST through MYOB (I've done it successfully twice before) but this time I'm not able to do so because the correct period is not showing. I'm trying to file a 2-monthly return for the period ending 31 May 2024, but the only options in the dropdown list are 2-monthly periods in 2022. What have I done that means I cannot select any periods after 2022? PS I've had to file the return manually through IRD (as it was due today) but would love to resolve this so I can file the next one through MYOB
MYOB Payroll - Timesheet upload integration help?
Hi all, We use "MYOB Business Payroll Only" at the moment and there's few things i can't figure out or I don't think it supports. So i need to figure out the right version for us. 1. What version of MYOB can I upload timesheet data into? The various help docs on the site only say to 'turn on timesheets' but nothing about which versions you can do this in - and i can't find it in my version. We use Guardhouse for our timesheets - staff clock in/out there - and that says it produces an MYOB compatible timesheet report but i can't determine what version of MYOB it can be uploaded to. 2. Is there a version of MYOB that I can separate annual leave cash outs so we can keep these tracked? As we often have staff asking to cash out their 1 weeks limit per year, but I have to manually keep record of this and dates it was done at the moment. 3. Is there a version of MYOB where it easily tells me the dates alt/lieu days are earned (instead of having to run a report and do manual calculations) so I can determine when they are eligible to be paid out? 4. Is there a version of MYOB where it can report all MOJ/IRD/MSD fines/payments/deductions? At the moment this only reports Court Fines and Child Support - but if staff get IRD repayment notices, or MSD repayment notices it's all manual not done in here 5. Is there a version of MYOB where I can have it track the '6 month test' for casual staff, when it comes to sick leave and bereavement leave entitlements? As in NZ they have to work a certain number of days/hours within a continuous 6 month period before they are entitled to this, and having to manually track and calculate that for our large casual work force is really difficult. 6. Is there a version of MYOB where staff can view their leave balances without having to wait to receive their payslips? It's tracked through our MYOB at this is our pay system, so it's not also in Guardhouse incase the 2 ever don't match up for whatever reason. So staff can only currently see their balance on the bottom of their payslips. 7. Is there a way for / version of MYOB that will somehow mark/alert public holidays when processing pay runs? To ensure the public holiday loading has been applied. Thank you in advance!
