I have received a letter from the ATO regarding a withholding variation for one of my employees. How do  I vary the withholding rate in Reckon Accounts Hosted?

    Go to the Taxes tab for that employee - there are various options there to add or deduct set amounts, change the percentage etc...

    Thank you for replying Linda. I did go into the taxes tab and entered 18% in the tax percentage box (which is what the withholding variation is). When I go to process a payroll, the PAYG tax is the same amount as before I entered the 18%. i thought the amount of PAYG would have changed given I have added the 18%?

    Linda quick question - do I need to change the tax code to # 1 - NoTFT?
    If I leave the code as TFT, will it just calculate PAYG tax rates automatically despite me putting the 18% in?

    You need to change the Tax Scale to "Voluntary/Flat rate".
