I have set up a new employee exactly the same as all my other employees, however, more tax is being deducted from her wage than should be. I have check all the settings and there is nothing selected to warrant extra tax to be deducted.  Any clues ???

    I suggest that you have a look at the way in which you have set up superannuation for this employee. There is a good chance that the box has been ticked to say that tax is to be charged on the SGC payment.

    If you were to provide us with details of the gross pay, the tax deduction type and the correct and incorrect amounts, it might be quite easy to determine what the problem is.

    @Gailsnowdon1 This is referring to the setup of the Super Payroll Item itself, rather than the employee’s setup. Double-click on it in your Payroll Item List & click (“Next”) through to the Taxes window - PAYG Tax should NOT be ticked.

    When you change it, you need to continue clicking Next through to the final window (& then OK on that one) to save your changes.
