The Qualifying Earnings Report helps you quickly identify what will be reported via STP as Qualifying Earnings (QE), whether for a specific pay run (draft or finalised) or across a date range, and can be viewed per pay run or per employee. It also highlights any instance where the super paid is less than the mandatory SG rate of an employee's qualifying earnings, so admins can investigate and correct it before lodging STP.

Helpful Hint
Helpful Hint You can also open the Qualifying Earnings Report directly from within a pay run. Open the pay run, go to the reports menu inside it, and click Qualifying Earnings Report — it will open already filtered to that pay run, with no need to select filters manually.

Super % vs QE
Identify employees where super doesn't meet the mandatory SG rate
The Super % vs QE column shows each employee's SG super as a percentage of their qualifying earnings for that pay run.
Rows where Super % vs QE is not equal to the mandatory SG rate are visually highlighted, so you can spot them at a glance and investigate before lodging STP.
Rows where Super % vs QE equals the mandatory SG rate appear with no highlight or warning.
