Salary sacrifice before tax Set up not reducing PAYG Tax?
Comments

This is what I would expect. The pay slip should show gross pay (before all deductions) and the amount of any deductions, e.g. PAYG, salary sacrifce.
Important thing is to check that the PAYG W calc is correct. Depending on the nature of the salary sacrifice item, generally speaking, PAYG will be based on Gross Pay less the Salary Sacrifice amount.

Just check your setup of the Sal Sac item again and on the screen for Tax Tracking Type - ensure that Gross Payments is selected - this is what reduces the Gross pay by the sacrificed amount...0

Thanks Linda and Bruce. I have check that, and all is good from that side. I have also noticed that his tax has not reduced. Is this normal?0

Check in the Salary Sacrifice Pay item that PAYG is ticked in the Taxes section0

Hi Kris, Yes it is.0

Hi Greg
The 2 things that affect this on the Payroll Item setup are - as Linda has said - the Tax Tracking Type needs to have “Gross Payments” selected & - as Kris has said – the Taxes window needs to have “PAYG Tax” ticked.
If you are confident these are definitely correct then it’s possible you may have selected the wrong type of Payroll Item at the start (unfortunately, you can’t check/edit this) or something in the employee’s record is overriding it eg if the employee is having additional PAYG Tax taken out normally?
Try creating the Payroll Item again, ensuring you select “Super Contribution (Company & Employee Contribution)” as the Payroll Item Type & configure again as above.

Thanks all for your help. I deleted the original payroll item, and started again. It now works. I have no idea what happened, but glad for all your help!1
