Hi, I am hoping someone can assist me pls as this also happened last year.
I have a Transport Travel Allowance set up in Payroll as per Reckon Technical Support suggestion:
Type -Addition
Expense account -Wages Truck
Tax Tracking Type- Allowance- Award Transport Payments
Taxes - Nil ( no tick against PAYG or State Payroll Tax)
Calculate item based on Quantity
Default Rate - 56.28 Limit is blank Ticked -This is an annual limit
Super is Nil against All.
Could someone please explain why the Travel Allowance has changed from appearing on the Payslip from : Adjustments to Net Pay to now appearing under Earnings and Hours. The changed happened on Payslip 25/03/2025 on all 65 drivers. Does it have something to do with the Ticked -This is an annual limit? If this is the case why this payperiod? There has been no alteration to the Payroll Item as I am the only person with permission and it happened last year. I have attached some payslip for your reference.
With the STP reporting the value appears under the Allowances.
I am receiving phone calls from Drivers asking why it has changed and they now think it is being taxed as it appears with Taxable items. I look forward to your reply.
