Re: RECKON EOY PAYG Summaries not including Unsued Holiday Pay
Hi Shaz, your advice also helped me with my problem, Thank you.
Liza - I found with STP, if I right click mouse, it brings up option to print and I am able to print a copy of what I am submitting to STP. Hope this might help you also.

Re: Save/Save and Close/Save and New Buttons Aren't Highlighting and Working
That's ok, I'll move it to the right place 🙂
Can you do me a favour and exit your file by going to File ➡️ Exit and then going into the Hosted control panel and logging off your session.
Once that is done, logout and close your browser.
Give it a 2-3 minutes and then log back in, does the same behaviour persist after this?
If it does, check if there is a prompt/window open in the background that is awaiting action. Try pressing Alt and Page Down or Alt and Page Up buttons to bring any windows in the background to the foreground.
Let us know how you go.

Re: Gross Payments not correct on PAYG Payment Summaries for 2024
Depending on how your "Holiday Pay" Payroll Item is configured, you may actually be able to just merge it into your "Holiday Hourly" one. To try this, double click on Holiday Pay in your Payroll Item List & change the name of it to the EXACT same as the one you want (eg "Holiday Hourly") It will either accept & merge it, or tell you it can't be merged.
If it can't be merged - & your "Holiday Pay" Payroll Item is still impacting the leave balances correctly (eg reducing the leave balance when taken) - you just need to update the Tax Tracking Type mapping selection for it to Leave - Other Paid Leave (U), here (Double-click on it in your Payroll Item List & click Next through the windows to this one. Continue clicking Next after updating this selection & click Finish on the last window to save):
Tio avoid future confusion, decide which one you want to use & make the other one Inactive (by right-clicking on it in your Payroll Item List & selecting Make Payroll Item Inactive from the popup menu) 😊

Re: 2023/24 Payment Summaries don't reconcile
Hi all,
Adding a little more context after speaking with some colleagues, the old payment summaries functionality remained in the software after STP Phase 1 rolled out for a few reasons. First, there was a staggered adoption of STP for businesses with less or more than 20 employees and secondly, there was feedback from users and partners that they wanted to retain it for familiarity.
With that said, now that STP Phase 2 has taken effect its a bit of a different story. As mentioned previously, the reporting requirements that have been introduced under Phase 2 weren't a part of the old payment summary process so they are no longer going to be accurate.
That being so, there is no longer any need to use payment summaries and there hasn't been for a fair while now, (even prior to STP Phase 2) so I'd encourage moving on from this particular functionality and instead advise employees to review their income statements which provide a more up-to-date and detailed breakdown of pay balances.
The team may look to disable or remove this functionality in a future release provided doing so doesn't have other adverse effects or impacts in other areas of the software.

Re: End Of Year Payroll Totals
Thank you so much. I've added the leave and overtime to the gross in the portal and it matches with my Reckon totals. So all should be good to go ahead. I thought as much but just wanted to double check before I went ahead and finished the year off.

Re: End Of Year Payroll Totals
when you look at the reckon portal details of the last submission you will see GROSS Tax and other leave or allowance items. You have to add the other items to the gross figure in that window to agree with your Reckon totals
Re: EOFY COMPLETION
No you don't have to complete the EOFY finalisation before creating a pay run for the new financial year. If you need to complete a pay run for the 2024/25 financial year you can go ahead and do so then come back later to complete the EOFY for 2023/24 🙂

Re: Incorrect Salary Sacrifice Figures on INB
I may have already posted this but I couldn’t find it. Did you change the setup of your salary sacrifice item since you started using it? If you did, go back to those first pays and edit them, change something , save and the edit and go back and change it back.
