in Reckon Payroll

I have paid an additional employer extra payment for super I need it to go into Reckon in current years figures so I may need to put it through separately from payroll as that super will not be paid until July is it possible and how do I do this.

    Dear @NarellePaterson ,

    You will need to add this in through the Pay Items area:

    1. Go to Payroll settings, then click Pay items.
    2. Click Create pay item.
    3. Click Superannuation.
    4. Set the Superannuation type to Employer additional.
    5. Set the Item name, Description, Expense account, what the rate is, etc.
    6. Click Create to add this item to the system.

    After this, you will need to add this to your employee's record:

    1. Go to Employees.
    2. Select the employee who needs this payment with a left click.
    3. Select Edit details in the top-right.
    4. Click Other details → Edit.
    5. Under Superannuation, click Add super details.
    6. Tick the Employer Additional payment, then press Done.
    7. Click Save & continue.

    After this, you can process this Employer Additional payment in any payrun for the employee.

    Already have item set up I pay EA every week I want to put through out of scheduled payroll it seemed to me that it can't do it without actually putting through a normal payroll eg with no amounts other than EA there is no actual amount to be paid only EA

    Dear @NarellePaterson ,

    That's correct - payruns in Reckon Payroll cannot be processed unless they have at least 0.01c of Gross associated with them.

    In the payrun you're making for these EA payments, it might be wise to add in a single cent of pay to allow this to be processed without issue.
