Set Up Payroll Elections for the Non-Default Employer Contribution

First, set up a deduction payroll election for the non-default employer deduction. Depending on how the deduction was configured, you might also need to define the percentage that is deducted from the employee's pay, the payee of the superannuation scheme, and its USI and ABN. After this is accomplished, add a deduction election for the system deduction Super Annuation Exemption. This is required to suppress the application from generating the default employer deduction.

Before You Begin: For more information on the fields and settings in this section, see Third Party Payees for Superannuation.

1. Ensure that you completed the steps in Set Up Superannuation Funds
2. Go to People, open the employee profile, and click Payroll > Payroll Elections.

4. In the General Details section, in the Type drop-down list, select Deduction.
