What we released in April
Payroll
Simplifying STP compliance (Australia only)
When you create a new MYOB Business file, the ATO Reporting Category is now set for you in these pay items:
Base Hourly
Base Salary
Annual Leave Pay
Personal Leave Pay
Overtime (1.5)
Overtime (2x)
This speeds up STP setup and prevents these payments from being reported incorrectly to the ATO.
Helping you stay compliant with super calculations (Australia only)
When you set up a new type of wage payment, like a new allowance, there's a new option to exclude those payments from super guarantee calculations. To help you choose, there's some handy info – just click the blue question mark.
No longer lose a draft pay run when you update an employee (New Zealand only)
If you save changes to an employee who's included in a saved (draft) pay run, the draft pay run is no longer deleted. Instead, after saving the changes (which won't be reflected in the draft pay run), you'll see a message that explains it. It's then up to you whether you continue the draft pay run or create a new one. More about saving and resuming pay runs
Performance improvements
Smarter handling of uploaded documents
We're improving the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) that scans uploaded invoices and receipts to create new bills in MYOB Business. This improves the accuracy and processing times for uploads.
A fresh new colour
We've tweaked the purple colour you'll see in our logo and on images and buttons throughout MYOB Business.
