Reckon Hosted 2023 Payroll item Holiday Loading Glitch

Hi all, 2 related questions:

Q 1:

Just wondering if anyone has encountered this issue post upgrade to RA 2023 or post running Phase 2 Migration Wizard.

2 employees have been paid an amount of Holiday Loading, in the first payrun since upgrade/migration to STP Phase 2. Neither employee took leave in this pay.... They did however both take 1 day's Holiday leave in the previous pay (as in the last pay run processed prior to upgrade).

No other employee was effected and we cannot replicate the issue in subsequent payruns.

Q 2:

Is it possible to do a negative adjustment to the Holiday Loading item either in a payrun; or via the YTD Adjustment function?

PS: In the offending payrun, PAYG was withheld, no super was paid, Holiday Leave accrual balances did not change.

    Hi Fiona


    That's certainly very strange ... haven't come across that happening before 😳 Make sure your Holiday Loading is mapped to Leave - Other Paid Leave (O)

    Unlock the affected Paycheques & correct them (eg remove the Holiday Loading Payroll Item) then save them again & re-generate/submit your 2023 Finalise Year STP submission.

    Hi Shaz, thank you for the response. How would you process the adjustment - as in adjust the super, PAYG and net on the additional funds paid to the employee?

    HI Fiona

    You would need to create a Deduction-type Payroll Item, linked to the same account/STP2 mapping. Also ensure the PAYG & Super are set to calculate/not calculate exactly the same eg PAYG (to reverse that) & no Super again.

    You can't create a negative or $0 Paycheque so you'll need to add this deduction onto their next Paycheque. (Technically, you can't deduct from an employee's pay without their authority so make sure you type up a letter about this & have them sign to say they agree to it 😬)
