You can use the Add Employee feature within the Update Event module to add an employee to your update event. You will need to undertake this process via your Employment Hero Payroll classic platform.
- Log into your Employment Hero Payroll classic platform.
- Click the Report menu.
- Click the Single Touch Payroll submenu.
- Select the pay event that needs to have an employee added.
- Click the Actions button.
- Click the Add Employee button.
- Select from the following options:
- Add all employees.
- Individual employee.
- Click the Add Employee button.
In the instance if the un-lodged pay event was from an old pay run, it is not recommended to re-lodge the affected pay event or any pay event out of chronological order. It is highly likely the pay event contains outdated YTD figures, and will affect the YTD figures submitted to the ATO.
If you are concerned about your YTD figures being incorrect, you can create and lodge an Update Event for the affected Pay Schedule. An Update Event will reflect YTD earning data based on the finalised pay runs for the selected pay schedule/financial year at the time when the event was created on the platform.
To Create an Update Event, on the Single Touch Payroll page click Create Update Event. Here, please ensure to click on the text of the button (as clicking the arrow icon will provide a different option). This will prompt the Create Update Event pop up where you can select the financial year and the primary pay schedule of the affected employees.
Previous Financial Years
If the event is from a previous financial year you will follow the above and also complete an Amended finalisation event for that year. Please follow the guide especially if there is any Reportable Fringe Benefits Tax to be acknowledged.
