Employer Superannuation Supplement Document Format AU Only

Description

A new document format type called Employer Superannuation Supplement is now available in Agency Portal > Maintenance > Portal Maintenance > Document Formats to allow creation of document templates for that define the layout and content of supplementary documents, which can be automatically generated and delivered with payslips, that show a detailed breakdown of a payee's superannuation accruals.

Employer Superannuation Supplement documents show a payee's superannuation accruals for the payslip period, as shown on the payslip itself, but also for the current contribution period to date for each fund to which a payee has accrued superannuation and therefore allow a payee to track their superannuation accruals for an entire contribution period.

If the payee has had a superannuation accrual transferred from one fund to another during a contribution period into which the payment date of the payslip falls, transfer in and transfer out transactions are shown to identify the amount that was transferred and the source and target funds between which the transfer occurred.

The document also shows the payee's total accruals for the current contribution period for each superannuation fund and policy number combination.

An Employer Superannuation Supplement document will only be generated along with a payee's payslip if an Employer Superannuation Supplement format is included in the document format group that applies to the payee.

Benefits

This enhancement provides payees with additional information about how their superannuation was accrued and will therefore help reduce the number of superannuation-related queries that payroll offices receive.
This enhancement also compliments the enhancements that have been made to how superannuation accruals are reported on payslips and the introduction of the Superannuation Accruals report. For more information, see Superannuation Accrual Report and Payslip Superannuation Enhancements.
