what is RESC?

mel_10460334

What has RESC appeared on my employees payslip and a dollar amount with it? Both employees still are asking me to review their super funds

Hi @mel_10460334,

RESC appears on a pay slip when the amount of Super Guarantee that is paid by the employer is over the statutory rate, that additional portion will fall under the RESC. Also, any gross pay that is salary sacrificed will also be classed as RESC.

Have you paid any additional super guarantee or salary sacrifice to these employees?

In regard to the Review Details message appearing on super fund, check out info on this here - #TipTuesday - Do you see Review Details on super when creating a pay run? Here's why!

Thank you and speak to you soon.

No its not suppose to be there if the super is being calculated at 11.5% why would i go over the statutory rate?

Lucas

Hi @mel_10460334,

You may be paying over the 11.5% of adding additional Super to your employees within a pay run. I recommend taking a look at the pay setup for your employees and pay runs incase you may be adding additional Super Contributions to them.

Thank you and speak soon.

ok it looks like it has affected the pay run on the 2nd of april so do i revert it back to draft and resubmit it?

also with regards to the super i have both employees allocated their correct super fund but one of the employees i have made the default fund inactve is this correct?

Lucas

Hi @mel_10460334,

We suggest that you take a look at the pay run in particular and see where the additional super payment is being made, so you can remove it. Once you have completed that please resubmit it to the ATO.

I would also check the employee with the default Superfund and change it to their correct fund, you will need to ensure no pay runs are currently sitting in draft. Once you have done that you will have to go into each pay and re-add the Super, so it calculates under the correct one. Unfortunately for this option, there is no way around it and has to be completed this way.

Thank you and speak to you soon.

hi lucas i have reverted the pay run back to draft when i try and mark it as paid its saying that it cant because the pay run cant be finished because it contains at least one active employee??? its never been an issue before

mel_10460334

tried to revert pay run and mark as paid again to resubmit to the ato but its telling me it cant because it contains one in active employee help!

Lucas

Hi @mel_10460334,

The pay run you are attempting to resubmit has an employee that you have made inactive previously, please go into the Payroll section, select employees and click on the archived employees tab:

You will need to make them active again, once you have done that you should be able to submit to the ATO without issue.

Thank you and speak to you soon.

hi lucas all the employees in the archive section have been terminated how can i check which employee is inactive and why would they become inactive if i pay them weekly and have done so since they started

Lucas

Hi @mel_10460334,

Could you please send me your email address in a private message and the pay run you are currently working on so I can check this for you?

I will let you know here, what one was affected and we can go from there as it's difficult to say what is happening here.

Thank you and speak to you soon.
