Re: Entering the YTD earnings for a employee
Thanks for that. I know I’m not explaining this very well, but we’re getting close to what I’m trying to clarify.
With each payroll, we report employees' year-to-date (YTD) earnings to the government via STP. For example, the existing employee, Joe (Employee Number 1), currently has $80K in gross earnings reported for example/
If I create a new employee using the same employee number (1), their YTD earnings in Reckon will 0. Wouldn't this override the previously reported YTD earnings in STP, meaning the government would now see the new (reset) YTD earnings instead? Which is an issue!
Re: Entering the YTD earnings for a employee
No, as long as you set up Joe again as Employee number 1, it should recognise it’s the same employee & just continue updating his original YTD balances as normal 😁
Worst case scenario, it will report as a 2nd income statement, but will still be under the employee’s record/myGov eg 1 income statement showing 70K gross YTD + a 2nd one, showing the other 10K (Total 80K)
In Hosted, you can’t have 2 Employees with the same details though, so you would need to amend the original employee details, as per my previous suggestion 😊

Re: Entering the YTD earnings for a employee
OK … so this is nothing to do with Enter YTD Amounts (that section is for entering actual earnings, not leave)
You won’t be affecting STP data at all as it’s only relating to leave hours.
The workaround is referring to resetting the LEAVE hours balances only (“… Hours available as of …”) in each employee’s leave tabs, not the earnings.
If you’re referring to creating replacement employee records, I wouldn’t recommend it, but if you do decide to do that, just edit the original employee names & employee numbers (eg just prefix with an “x”) so you can continue using the correct, original name & employee numbers, in the new records. (This will ensure they’re identified in STP as the same employees as before) 😁

Re: new computer
Hi @mtedeschi,
Is the guide you are referring to this one?
If so, which step would you like more clarification on?
Re: Supplier bulk email letter - .dse file
Hi @CindyR
If your letter is in Word format, you can try using the built-in feature to convert and existing document to a letter template.
On the Reckon Accounts Enterprise desktop, there is an additional menu option.
Since there is no longer an integration on the Hosted platform with the Microsoft Office products such as Word or Excel, the menu on the Hosted application is different and does not offer that Customise Letter Templates option.
