Deductions are used on pay lines when processing a Pay Run, in addition to the required Pay Rates and Allowances. We have provided the most commonly required Deductions as System Defaults (Templates) that can be used "as is" or copied and modified to suit your requirements.
For ease of use, Deductions are separated into their own category and are then broken down into;
- Before PAYGW - decrease the Payees Gross Pay (before PAYGW is calculated).
- After PAYGW - decrease the Payees Net Pay (after PAYGW is calculated).
Single Touch Payroll Phase 2 has resulted in changes to the reporting of Deductions. Previously only Salary Sacrifice to Superannuation was itemised separately.
An * indicates a Tuple; else, it is a Fact within the STP file used when reporting to the ATO.
