Disaggregation of Gross with Rolled Up / All Purpose Allowances under STP2

Handling Rolled Up Allowances under STP2 in Reckon.pdf

Hi All

This is my simplified method for payroll where an all-purpose or rolled-up hourly rate needs to be disaggregated into various components under STP2.

I hope you find it useful.

This is just what I needed - thank you so much. This way I can still accurately allocate all costs to our jobs via the timesheet function.

Thanks Graham

What does the STP file look like when it is processed ? Will the gross amount be what you have entered in the normal pays and then the allowances would also be added in different tax types ie. tools, tasks etc So wouldnt this double up the gross pay and allowances ?

Hi Tiffany

You can see the how it shows in the STP portal in the paper I have done. The offset allowance comes off the gross, so there is no double counting.

Tiffany

Ok now I see what you are proposing , thanks Graham but either way we have to do a manual calculation whether it be 17.5% loading or deducting the totals of the allowances from the gross . I think I will stick with the manually loading calculation as then there are no additional items that need to be accounted for in the payroll summary etc to balance with the STP, each to their own I guess. Thank you for your suggestion. 🙏
