Pay item and allowance schedule

Review and explore the detailed setup of your pay items and allowances

The Pay Item and Allowance Schedule report shows the current configuration of all pay items and allowances in your platform. This report tells you how each pay item/allowance in the system is set up for tax, STP and variables and will assist in End of Financial Year (EOFY) reconciliation.

This schedule will display all pay items and allowances built into your platform; however, it will not indicate whether they are currently in use or active. 

The primary use cases for this report are to:

  • View the Tax and Single Touch Payroll (STP) selections made for each item
  • Assist with reviewing data points against EOFY reconciliation
