@Kris_Williams is right - The Tax % is for a flat % amount ONLY (not additional) & is commonly used for Working Holiday Makers - in conjunction with the 8-NoTaxC code - who are taxed at a specific flat tax rate.

There are only 2 possible workarounds that I know of that may work:

If the employee earns the same every pay, you can determine what an extra 5% of their usual PAYG Tax amount actually is & enter that extra amount in the Extra Tax box.
If you can determine what the employee’s marginal tax rate is overall, you can calculate an extra 5% & add the (pro rata) amount in the Extra Tax box

(The 2nd option may not be very accurate though as the marginal rate can change, depending on earnings)

Is there a reason why the employee has specifically requested a percentage rather than a $ amount ? 🤔

Re: RECKON CRASHES IF I TRY A NEW ITEM ENTRY - ANY THOUGHTS

have you had the opportunity to open the file on a different computer?

Is it Reckon Premier or Reckon desktop?

Re: Personal Plus 2022

Hi Lucas,

This process is fundamentally flawed at best!

I have just called 1800 732 566 (the number on the activation screen) and been told I have to uninstall the previous version of Reckon before I can download the new version. This is absolutely crazy! When I paid for my annual subscription, there was no mention of having to uninstall and reinstall the program and there was absolutely nothing mentioned on the renewal notice or the confirmation of payment documentation. How am I supposed to figure out how to uninstall the program without completely stuffing everything up!

This is incredibly frustrating!

Do you know who can help me get back into the program I have already paid for?
