You can automate the process of issuing payment summaries to employees during the financial year and submitting the information contained in these payment summaries to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Note: Oracle HRMS currently supports production of the Individual, Non-Business and ETP Payment Summaries.
The process of generating and reporting payment summary information involves four steps. You:
Archive payment details for an individual, payroll or registered employer
Review the archived data and correct any errors or exceptions
Produce payment summary reports, including the Self Printed Payment Summary Report and ETP Payment Summaries
Create and submit the ATO Payment Summary Data File
Re-archive and replace an incorrect Payment Summary Data File
Archive Payment Details
Run the Payment Summary Archive process to archive the balances reported on the Payment Summary. This process selects only employee records that have a blank (null) Payment Summary print date.
Note: Complete all payroll runs before you run the archive process.
Review the Archived Data
Run the Payment Summary Validation Report to verify the data that appears on the self-printed summaries. The report highlights exceptions you need to correct before producing the Payment Summary reports. This report provides basic validation checks. Perform a more detailed check using the test Efile.
Produce the Payment Summary Report
After you have archived and validated the payment summary data, you can produce a PDF of the Self Printed Payment Summary report. The PAR process creates locks to prevent you from reprinting a payment summary for an employee.
See: Running the Produce and Print Self Printed Payment Summary XML PDF
Produce the ETP Payment Summaries
You can issue employees an ETP Payment Summary at the time they terminate employment. You must produce ETP Payment Summaries at the end of the financial year for employees who did not receive an ETP payment summary at the time they terminated employment.
Create ATO Payment Summary Data Files
If you produce self printed payment summaries, you must submit a file of this information to the ATO. This process uses the PAR process which creates locks that prevent reissuing data files.
Regenerate and replace an incorrect Payment Summary Data File
You can replace a incorrect Payment Summary submitted to the ATO. The process regenerates the archive data for all the employees and compares the data with the original archive values for which Data File has been generated.
