    Hi Klety

    This may be related to the configurations you’ve set - either for specific Payroll Items &/or in the employee record itself.

    Are you able to take a screenshot of that specific tab in the employee record - where the HELP checkbox is - & a screenshot of a Paycheque ? (You can black out any identifying employee information)

    Your pay period in that Paycheque is set to a fortnightly pay period, is that correct ?

    I've just looked this up & the ATO Tax Withheld Calculator is also showing $ 938 (exactly as per your RAH Paycheque), not $ 940 :


    Where are you looking that shows it should be $ 940 ? According to the employee details you've set up, the Paycheque is calculating the correct amount. Are you selecting any Tax Offsets or Medicare Levy Adjustments in your ATO calculation ?

    Hi,

    see the help table in ATO website showing for $3300- $166

    In PAYG withheld in ATO Tax table for $3300- $774

    So Total $774+$166= $940

    The above reason i got confused, .

    I will follow the reckon thanks for the help.
