STP Reporting: Allowance earnings accumulated during standard working hours maintain their regular payment classification as configured in the allowance pay category and are reported to the ATO exactly as they were before.

Superannuation: Superannuation calculations for ordinary hour allowance earnings remain entirely unchanged.

STP Reporting: Allowance amounts earned alongside overtime hours are automatically reported as Overtime in STP pay events.

Superannuation: The platform automatically references the specific super rate configured on the overtime pay category.

• If the overtime pay category super rate is set to 0, no superannuation is calculated for that specific portion of the allowance.
• If the overtime pay category super rate is greater than 0, superannuation is calculated on that portion of the allowance at that exact rate.

STP Reporting: Allowance amounts paid while an employee is on leave are automatically reported to the ATO as Other Paid Leave. The exception is paid Family & Domestic Violence Leave — the allowance portion for this leave type will be reported using the payment classification setting of the pay category allocated as the payslip description in the pay run.

Superannuation: Superannuation contributions are calculated normally on this portion of the allowance.

For pay runs where an employee has a mix of ordinary hours, overtime, or leave, the platform keeps things transparent by automatically displaying the breakdown for you. Any all-purpose allowance triggered on overtime or leave hours will be identified with a tooltip.

This report mirrors the breakdown by showing separate lines for each all-purpose allowance context, complete with its individual earnings amount and calculated superannuation figure.

By doing this, you will not need to worry about rectifying this during year end reporting time and can focus on EOFY processing instead. The platform will automatically reallocate all-purpose allowance earnings to overtime or leave, as required.

If you want to wait until EOFY processing to rectify this, you can do so via a finalisation event. Note that finalisation events do not include employees previously marked as final. If any previously marked "is final" employees also require a correction, we recommend creating an amended finalisation event after lodging your finalisation event.

You will only need to create an amended finalisation event if you have already lodged a finalisation event and/or want to correct employees not included in the finalisation event.

Once the STP event is successfully lodged with the ATO, your employees' year-to-date income statements will update to reflect the correct classification of all-purpose allowances. If your business does not have any historical all-purpose allowance splits to update, the platform will recognise this and take no action.

Your original pay runs remain completely finalised and unchanged. The superannuation amounts originally recorded and paid in those past periods are preserved exactly as-is — no retroactive adjustments or reversals will be made to your historical employer super obligations.
