9.9.5 Superfund Provider Maintenance (09152m)
There are two ways a Superannuation fund may be utilised in the Muli payroll.
- By establishing a Superannuation Fund (which will lead to Superfund Reporting)
- By establishing a Direct Deposit Superfund transaction in which case there is no detailed Superfund reporting.
The next significant issue with Superannuation is there are three elements of Superfund payments.
- (ES) Statutory Super Payments (Currently 9% in Australia) (A)
Represented by Pay Sequences W001 - W998. - (SS) Salary Sacrifice (B)
An employee may wish to pay into the Superfund from their salary thus reducing the tax obligation commonly referred to as Salary Sacrifice.
Represented as Q001 - Q998 - Employee After Tax (not entered, just distributed)
At times the calculation is determined by an EBA (Employee Bargaining Agreement)
Before a Superannuation Fund may be used it must first be set up as a Supplier in Organisation Master Maintenance [2.1] It is a 'supplier' because you are paying them money. You will also need to make that Organisation (Super fund) a Supplier in Muli which is done under the 'Supplier' button in [2.1]. If you need to pay to this superfund by direct deposit it is essential that you enter all the banking detail in the Supplier screen and turn on Direct Deposit. If the fund will be using the payment method of Clearing or Group then the banking details are not necessary.
Superfund codes are needed when an employee is set up in the system. The superfund code is the organisation code which is made up of a six digit character to represent any superannuation funds that you pay into on behalf of your employees.
The program will display a list of current superfunds is displayed for you to choose the one you want to edit. Once you select the fund you want then it is displayed with the items as listed below for you to select the one you want to change. You can only change the items from Super Fund Description and below.
