Changing a payroll item in 2025 payslip

Leanne_7663246

Hi

Hoping someone can help. We had an employee who resigned. We paid out their annual leave and didn't pay super as no super paid on annual payout, however when doing the final pay we used our normal annual leave payroll item and changed super amount to $0 instead of using annual leave payout payroll item. All the figures are correct however if I update the payslip so that it shows the correct payroll item in our reports given I am about to finalise the year through stp is this sufficent or do I need to do update event first and submit to STP and then finalise my year. The employee left in October 2025 I only picked this up when doing my super sanity check and the figures didn't add up.

thanks

STP 2 introduced many additional mapping areas including for different leave types, as well as specific ones for leave paid out on termination, cashed-out leave, bonuses/commissions & a variety of broken-down allowances.

Therefore, you needed to create new Payroll Items for these scenarios so that they are reported correctly., like this:

IMPORTANT: When setting up a new Payroll Item, ensure you relate it to the applicable leave TYPE here :

(This is how he system determines which leave balance this one is to reduce & this window is ONLY visible once, at initial setup - You cannot view or change this selection later!)
