Salary Sacrifice and other deductions
Hi
I am finding the Salary Sacrifice and other deductions are not always sticking to the amounts I change them to. What could I be doing wrong please?

Have you entered them in the employee name or changing them in the payrun, the former should result in a permanent entry

I was entering into the payrun as I was going by the previous Payroll Officer where there doesn't seem to be any codes to choose Salary Sacrifice in the deduction area of the Employee set up. And some have worked and stayed and some haven't by entering in the payrun.

If you enter it into the payrun do you get a message that says, you have used a payroll item that is not part of the Employee, do you want to add it permanently

Yes I did at first and that was fine but then $ figures have changed and when I enter the new figure it won't keep it permanently.

If you go to the super details of the employee you can add another line for salary sacrifice

Yes, I have that already but you cannot add the dollar amount in there. That's what I'm having the trouble updating the figure and it staying updated.

Hi @Jody
You need to add this in to the Employee record itself, in order for it to be retained & to prepopulate each pay 😊

I keep a list of the employees that I need to manually adjust each payrun but just would be nice not to have to. Older staff are fine but I cannot see that they are set up any differently then what I have done.

You don't need to manually adjust each payrun, if you update the Employee record with the info.
Salary Sacrifice Payroll Items are set up under Super, not in the Deduction section. There is a Rate box there for you to enter a specific amount. NOTE: Ensure you highlight the SS Payroll Item line (NOT the normal SG super) when you enter it!

Yes you can add the $ amount in the super details window of the employee against the SS item

Fantastic, thank you everybody. I have only looked at that box when it is showing the SG %.
