Attaché Payroll: Adjust employee superannuation

Updated over 5 months ago

In Attaché Payroll, superannuation is calculated based on calendar month, therefore if you need to process an adjustment pay to correct a superannuation contribution, only do so at the end of the month. If you process an adjustment to superannuation during the month or there are multiple time sheets/adjustment pays for an employee with the same employer contribution code, superannuation may be calculated incorrectly.
