Fixing super payment clearing house errors

If you've received an email from MYOB about a super payment with a Clearing House Error, here's a description of each error and what you need to do.

  • Source Failed - Your direct debit has been dishonoured. You'll need to:

    1. Make sure you have adequate funds in your bank account.

    2. Make sure you've provided the correct bank details. Need to change your bank details?

    3. Record and reprocess the returned super contribution.

  • Source Cancelled - You have requested for the direct debit to be stopped. If SuperChoice have already debited these funds, then funds will be refunded back to your account within 3 days.

  • Destination Failed - Payment to a Super fund has dishonoured due to invalid bank account details provided for an SMSF, or it's an APRA fund that is no longer active.  The payment will be refunded and you will then need to:

    1. Wait until you have received your refund from the super fund to confirm the refund amount.

    2. Using the amount returned, identify the affected fund.

    3. If it's a SMSF, make sure you enter the correct bank account details in MYOB. You can't edit existing SMSF in MYOB so you'll need to create a new SMSF with the correct bank details.

    4. If it's an APRA fund, ensure that fund is accepting contributions. You can check the list of active funds at superfundlookup.gov.au. If the fund has merged with another fund, you'll need to add the new super fund into MYOB and assign it to the impacted employees.

    5. Record and reprocess the returned super contribution.

  • Destination Cancelled - You have requested for the payment to the Super funds to be stopped.  The payment will be refunded and you'll need to record and reprocess the returned super contribution.
