In the old Payroll Premier program there was a report - payment summary reconciliation - is there this report in the new Reckon payroll program we were moved to - this was very helpful when reconciling the end of the financial year.

Also how to you round employees payments to the nearest dollar rather than having cents - I have ticked the $1.00 box but is not working

Thank you

    Dear @lesley_9730541 ,

    Could you expand upon what the Payment Summary Reconciliation report did/showed? There may be a similar function in the Reckon One side of the new Payroll product.

    As for rounding - if the $1 option is ticket, it should attempt to round so long as there is a rounding account listed. Have you listed that down in your settings?

    Kind regards,

    Thank you for your reply.

    The report showed the gross earnings and tax per month so I could ensure we had paid the correct PAYG per month.

    What is a rounding account?

    Thank you

    Sorry the report was called a monthly reconciliation report - apologies for the error in the name

    Dear @lesley_9730541 ,

    You may be after a Payroll Summary or Payroll Detail report.

    To access these reports, you'll need to do the following:

    1. Click on the nine dots in the top-left-hand corner.
    2. Select Reckon One.
    3. Go to "Reporting" on the left-hand side.
    4. Select "Reports Centre".
    5. Change the Category in "Categories" to Payroll.
    6. Run a "Payroll Detail" report. If this does not work, you may wish to try a "Payroll Transactions Summary" report.

    As for the rounding account, it is an expense account that handles rounding to the nearest dollar - if one is not listed, rounding may not fully function.

    You can find this in Settings → General.

    These report functions do not work either - I am looking for just the total gross and tax amounts per month not with the employees - just the totals - any other reports that may show this?

    As we are not using Reckon books the rounding appears to not be working.

    Dear @lesley_9730541 ,

    Can you confirm with me the product you're currently using?

    If it's the Payroll Web and you're looking just for Total Gross/PAYG, there are more reports in the Reckon One Reports Centre under other categories.

    Kind regards,

    I am using Reckon payroll - they switched us from Payroll Premier last year.

    We have our own accounting program so don't use Reckon for anything other than payroll.

    Thank you

    Dear @lesley_9730541 ,

    You could reasonably try a Balance Sheet report in Financial or a Bank Reconciliation report in Banking?

    Failing that - you can use the Payroll Summary report in the Payroll Reports section.

    All of these can be found in the Reports Centre in the Reckon One side of the Payroll Web version.

    Dear @lesley_9730541 ,

    In addition to my last post, if you run a Payroll Summary report, you will need to toggle these options.

    You can toggle them by clicking on "Show more options" just below the Reporting Period:

    Great thanks - this is helpful

    When we transferred from Quicken to Reckon did the previous employee pays transfer over or do I need to see the July & Aug amounts in the old program?

    Appreciate your assistance

    Dear @lesley_9730541 ,

    They would have appeared in STP data and YTD data in each employee's record.

    While this is not fully reportable, their total sums + any STP data was retained.

    Kind regards,

    @Alexander McKeown

    Hi Alexander

    How can I a generate a Year To Date report for this financial year which includes employee wages processed in Payroll Premier before transition to Reckon Payroll?

    TIA

    Dear @Pia ,

    Unfortunately speaking, this information would be contained as YTD data or STP data.

    As such, you would only be able to review this information by doing an EOFY STP for that FY, or using Payroll to review those reports.

    This is due to how the migration exports the data in the system.
