Re: Reckon Accounts Personal Plus v31 (2024) fails installation on Parallels
This suggestion from Datarec was successful.
I did get my IT consultant to carry it out but the complete deletion of Parallels (and W11 with it) followed by a reinstall of both worked. we were able to install v31 at first attempt.
Key in the process was the complete deletion of anything that was attached to Parallels, include empty the trash bin, and anything sitting residually in all but your Downloads file.
Once that was done the reinstall of Parallels (from previous Downloads) and Windows was without incident.
I've been using v31 for an hour or so now and all looks good. π€ Many thanks

Re: STP conflict with BAS

Many thanks, Rob
Re: STP conflict with BAS
Hi Rob
The W1 & W2 STP prefilling is still fairly new technology & does NOT update in real time (unlike Reckon's Customer portal for STP does) Also, STP updates YTD balances, however the W1/W2 prefill is purely on each submission so if you've submitted any late ones or Update Events, these will not be reflected in the W1/W2 prefill.
Therefore, you will see - on that screen - that the ATO actually states to adjust to what your payroll records show (if necessary):
It's very important - for both the ATO & for you - that you are lodging the correct figures regardless of what this prefill shows, otherwise all your (BAS) lodgments will be wrong & need revising & you will be paying the wrong amounts! As you can see on the example above β¦ today is 08/01/2025 but the last time the ATO's prefill was updated was 8 days ago ! ππ€¦ββοΈ

Re: Leave Accrues on Bonus Payments
Hi @Acctd4,
Thank you, that makes sense, but unfortunately the tick box is not there. I tried it on our 'hourly pay' pay item and I see what you mean, as it's there for that one, but it's not there for the Bonus item.
Are you saying that I should change the Bonus item to the type 'hourly wage' instead of bonus, so I will get that option? I'm guessing to do that I would need to create a brand new pay item for Bonus as it doesn't let me change the type either.
It's not a big deal, as we don't often pay bonuses, but it also means I forget to uncheck the accrual box when I am entering the bonuses, so I always have to go back to change it all! π€¦ββοΈ

Re: Auto generated Super calculations
Hi @GLDMachFab1
If itβs not automatically calculating accurately, this will likely be due to incorrect configuration in the Super Payroll Item itself - Open the Payroll Item List (under the Lists dropdown menu), double-click on it & check the settings in Taxes (State Payroll Tax should be selected but NOT PAYG Tax !) & also that the correct pay items are selected in the final Inclusions windows.
Feel free to email me direct if you need help with this π
