Features / Payroll & Super
Payroll and super, kept on the same clock.
Each pay run affects wages, tax, super, records, and obligations. Myaccountant keeps those parts together, so you can see what is ready, what was reported, what was paid, and what still needs attention.

Pay runs with the surrounding obligations visible.
A payroll overview that starts with attention.
The first screen shows setup issues, super due, Payday Super readiness, leave liability, and anything that may block the next pay run.
Review the pay run before it moves.
Choose the period and employees, bring in timesheets where connected, review gross pay, tax, super, allowances, deductions, and net pay, then finalise.
Employee setup without repeated entry.
New employees can complete personal, tax, super, bank, and emergency contact details through a guided invite. You review once before the first pay run.
Super tracked from obligation to fund.
The Super Overview shows what was reported to the ATO, what was paid to funds, what is outstanding, and what is overdue.
What else payroll and super can handle.
