NZ AIM return
I'm setting up an AIM return in AccountRight for the first time ever. This is AIM only, no GST. The FYE is 31-03-2027. When I get to the end of the setup, I'm only presented with Sept 25 to March 26. Does anyone know how I select a month in the current financial year? I tried closing the previous year but still get the same choices. I tried changing the GST period manually to May 2026 but that made no difference. This is what I am presented with.New Release: Pay Run History report now live
Kia ora everyone, We’re excited to share a new feature that went live on 18 December — the Pay Run History report. This update brings all your past pay runs into one consolidated view, helping you easily audit, review and report on payroll activity across your chosen employees and date range. What’s included? Summary view: High-level totals and pay run insights Detailed list view: A breakdown of each pay run, including selected employees Flexible date filters: Quickly retrieve historical payroll data Faster audits: No need to jump between multiple screens More accurate reporting: Clearer visibility of past payroll events This has been a highly requested capability from partners and SMEs, and we’re thrilled to deliver it before year-end when payroll reviews are top of mind.

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!
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 :-)
Taxation of extra pay when employment ends
Hi, The release notes for MYOB payroll desktop version 2025.1 included the above note re: taxation of extra pay when employment ends. The extract notes the change to the annualised calculation to now be based on two weeks instead of four weeks; however, the IRD website is still stating the calculation is to be based on four weeks? MYOB - can you please advise where this change was initiated from? Also, the old calculation of 4 weeks was multiplied by 13 - are you now suggesting the two weeks to be multiplied by 26 instead?
Pay run in wrong financial year
I have a pay run that ended on 30th March (EOY) which I didn't process until 2 April and didn't realize that it would go into this current financial year totals and had already submitted it to the IRD, how do I reverse this pay run so that it reflects in our totals for YE 31/3/25 and how do I reverse the submitted IRD payment. Much appreciated for any help. Thanks2025.1 Payroll Incorrect Gross YTD Calculation
Hi, I have a spreadsheet I track MYOB payroll annual leave in due to historic issues, up until we applied the 2025.1 update, everything has tracked 100% in synch, as of this update, the Gross YTD calculation used in both Annual Leave and in the employee Audit reports seems to limit the gross value to the last 52 pays instead of using the full years date range. I.E. Today is 26/03/2025, a payroll run processed on 27/03/2024 is NOT included in the gross YTD figure used in the annual leave calculation or in the Employee Audit report (starts with first payroll run in April) The above logic is not strictly correct either, the prior payroll processing date was last Wednesday so 19/03/2025, to get a full 52 week value, then the calculation should be for the date range of 20/03/2024 (Take last finalised date then add one to day, deduct one from year) up to & including 19/03/2025 which in that case would include TWO additional payroll runs from the 20/03/2024 & the 27/03/2024. As any errors in payroll fall back on the employer as being at fault, this sort of error really does not help matters at all. I have paid 2 x employees based on my spreadsheet calculated hourly rate as today, I trust that more than the payroll package & have included the values from the two missing payroll runs in March 2024. Please fix ASAP. Cheers, Phil
