THIS IS A WIP PAGE
Introduction
The intent of this guide is to provide schools with the steps of the data checking to be done when transitioning from STP1 to STP2.
The assumption is that you have upgraded to the relevant v70 version, if you have not done this please book in for the upgrade as soon as possible.
Pay Code Maintenance
Remuneration is now to be reported as separately itemised components (Payment Types) that have a common definition, rather than a specific definition per Income Type
- Pay Codes for Deductions and Superannuation do not need Income Stream
- Taxable Pay Codes where the Income Stream is not Salaries and Wages
- Pay Codes for Leave
- Reporting Category
- Default Payment
Pay Codes for Allowances (as per PowerPoint suggestions)
Look up Table Maintenance - Finance
LuPayrollTerminationReason
Update "External System Type" and "External System Code" columns
LuPayrollTaxationRate
Familiarise yourself with this lookup table and how the new Tax Treatment Code applies to your employees
Payroll Employee Maintenance
General Tab
- For any employees terminated during Payroll Year 2022
- In Payroll Maintenance search for Terminated employees
- Update termination reason to STP2 guidelines (using updated luPayrollTerminationReason)
Tax Tab
Your upgrade will have converted the following data please check:
- Tax scales and Tax Treatment Code
- Super Liability/OTE Submit
- Employment Basis
- Income Type to “Salary or Wages”
NB: The tax scale and treatment code for employees with a “0” tax scale will not have been converted and will need to be set per STP 2 guidelines
Payroll Configuration
- BMS ID history – this is mainly for schools new to Synergetic STP as a location to save prior BMSID data
