PAYROLL Pro Payday Super — Workflow Quick Reference Guide
This is a quick reference guide for the new workflow changes to meet 2026 Payday Super changes in the Payroll & A/P Payments module.
Part A — One-Time Setup (Complete before your first pay run on or after 1 July 2026)
If you are required to do multiple export formats to various Clearing houses skip step A1.
If you are not using a creditor to pay your Superannuation obligations skip Step A2.
|
A1 |
Set Payday Super Parameters SYS02 System Administration → System Parameters → search "PAY: PAYDAY SUPER CLEARING HOUSE" → set to your clearing house format (e.g. QuickSuper) search "PAY: PAYMENT SUMMARY COMAPNY NAME (1, 2 &3)" → set to your Company Name registered with you Clearing House If different to the Company Name in general parameters |
|
|
|
|
A2 |
Add Creditor Code to Each Super Scheme PYM09 Payroll & HR → Payroll Reference Maintenance → Superannuation Schemes → Modify each scheme → confirm Rate = 12.00% → enter the A/P Creditor code in the Creditor field → Commit Note: Spin numbers are being phased out & replaced by USi numbers. |
|
|
|
|
A3 |
Verify Employee Super Details PYM01 Payroll & HR → Payroll Reference Maintenance → Employees → confirm Super Scheme, Super Policy and Super GL A/C for every employee |
Part B — Every Pay Run (After payslips are processed)
Run payslips as normal (Auto or Manual) first. The workflow below picks up from Payslips UPDATE.
PHASE 1 — PAYSLIPS UPDATE & SUBMISSIONS
|
B1 |
Run Payslips UPDATE PY011 Set Submit Single Touch = Yes and Export Superannuation = Yes (Report options Tab) → click Update |
|
|
|
|
B2 |
Save the Payslips UPDATE PDF & AP Invoice Update PDF When the PDF generates on screen → save to your records folder |
|
|
|
|
B3 |
Confirm STP Submission MessageXchange popup will appear → confirm "Successfully sent. Response Status = 200 OK" → click OK |
|
|
|
|
B4 |
Save the Super Export CSV Save As dialog appears → name the file (e.g. Super_Payment_26052026) → save to your super exports folder |
|
|
|
|
B5 |
Generate EFT File & Pay Employees PY012 Generate the ABA file for employee wages as normal → upload to bank |
|
Steps 2, 3 and 4 happen automatically in sequence when you run PY011 — you do not need to navigate anywhere. Just respond to each prompt as it appears. |
PHASE 2 — SUBMIT TO CLEARING HOUSE (same day as wages)
|
B6 |
Log in to clearing house portal (e.g. QuickSuper) Upload the super export CSV file saved in Step B4 |
|
|
|
|
B7 |
Submit the super payment Submit simultaneously with the file upload — Confirm both the file and payment are matched before logging out if possible. |
|
⚠️ Critical: Super must be paid on the same day as wages (or next business day) from 1 July 2026. Submitting the file without the payment — or vice versa — may cause delay in the processing of the Superannuation to employee funds. |
PHASE 3 — PROCESS A/P SUPER PAYMENT (if super funds are linked to a creditor code)
When paying via PayID, the creditor's payment method must be set to Direct Debit (D/Deb). ABA files are not compatible with PayID.
|
B8 |
Select the Super Creditor & Enter Payment APP02 A/P Payments → Creditor Payment Maintenance → select your super creditor → enter full Amount in the Payment field → Commit → Esc |
|
|
|
|
B9 |
Review Creditor Payment Listing APP03 A/P Payments → Creditor Payment Listing → select Detail Recon → select creditor → View → confirm figures before proceeding |
|
|
|
|
B10 |
Print Creditor Remittance (if required) APP06 A/P Payments → Creditor Remittance Print → set From/To Creditor to your super fund code → View or Print |
|
|
|
|
B11 |
Update the Payment APP07 A/P Payments → Creditor Payment UPDATE → set From/To Creditor → View to preview → confirm all details correct → Update |
|
|
|
|
B12 |

|
|
|
|
B13 |
Verify the Batch APP13 / APP21 EFT: A/P Payments → EFT Listing → select batch → confirm Batch Total matches APP07 BPAY: use APP21 — same process |
