Death Benefit payment


Hello brains trust,
We had an employee pass away last year and I have just noted the Death payment was processed as hours worked and leave on termination & was heavily taxed, I would like to rectify this before the EOFY and update the STP event.
I will contact the recipient first to ensure they have not finalised the deceased tax affairs.
Payment was made to a non-dependent
Unpaid worked hours and unpaid annual leave.
No ETP payments included (Golden handshakes, invalidity, etc).
I have checked the available STP reporting codes and can not see anything for ETP tax free & ETP Taxable.
I am hoping someone might be able to guide me through the process to correct the original pay run so that it is correct and the STP reporting codes to use.
Appreciate any assistance.
Regards
Bernessa
