After processing our normal weekly payrun, I realised I should have added the LSL for a terminated employee in the same payrun in Accounts Hosted. Should I use Update Event or Full File Replacement to correct this mistake?

    Hi Sandy.  I'd like to know this too as I couldn't get either to work when I needed to correct an employee tax amount.  I gave up in the end and adjusted it next pay run.  I'm using Desktop.

    Dear Sue, Sandy,
    The correct course of action as defined by the ATO in their documentation here:
    https://www.ato.gov.au/Business/Single-Touch-Payroll/In-detail/Single-Touch-Payroll-employer-reporti...
    suggests that you should upload this as an Update Event.
    Correct the employee's payslip, then tick the "Update Event" option in the STP lodgement window, then submit it to GovConnect under an Update Event.
    Kind regards,
    Alex.

    Thanks Alex.  I tried what you are suggesting - multiple times - but it would not accept the "Update Event".  Kind regards, Sue
