The payroll tax tables have been released for the 2020 financial year (01 July 2019 to 30 June 2020). You can find a link to download the tax tables and instructions on how to apply them below.
1.Download
The 2020 tax rates can be downloaded from the following location. The file is called TaxRates.txt
Download the 2020 Tax Rates Here:
http://support.cda.com.au/Downloads/Other/Payroll/2020/
To Download:
- Follow the above link to our website
- Right click on the TaxRates.txt file and select 'Save link as' (Depending on your browser, you may have a different option)
- Save the file to your preferred directory
2.Installation
IMPORTANT
This step should only be performed once you have completed all pays for the 2019 payroll year. If the tax rates are applied before the last pay is completed, then the 2020 rates may apply incorrectly to the 2019 financial year.
After downloading the tax rates file, the new rates can be loaded into Synergetic:
- In Synergetic, go to Payroll > Load Tax Rates
- Use the browse button to navigate to the location where you saved the TaxRates.txt file
- Select the file and click 'Open'
4. Confirm that the file path is correct, then click 'OK'
5. Confirm that the message mentions “01 July 2019 (FY 2020)” and then press 'Yes'
The tax rates will load and Synergetic will be updated with the new figures ready to use in your first 2020 pay.
Ensure that you have rolled your payroll into the 2020 financial year (Payroll > Create Next Payroll Year) before creating your first pay in 2020.
