Process a manual super batch payment 

Why process a manual super batch payment? 

Processing a super batch payment streamlines the handling of employee superannuation contributions by consolidating them into a single transaction. This ensures accurate and timely payments to employees' super funds. 

How to process a manual super batch payment? 

Here are the steps to process a manual superannuation batch payment: 

1. Generate a manual super batch payment in Wiise Payroll. This report lists details of each employee’s contributions and the associated superfund. 
2. Organise payments for each super fund. 
    
   Note: Use the Small Business Clearing House on the ATO website to pay your employees’ superannuation if you have fewer than 20 employees.  
3. Reconcile superannuation payments.
   
   Note: After making payments, your bank statement will show these transactions. Instead of matching them to bills, assign them directly to your superannuation payable account in Wiise to reduce the outstanding balance. 
4. Mark manual superannuation contributions as paid.  
   
   Note: Keep your records updated in Wiise Payroll by marking the superannuation payments you’ve made.

4. Select Mark as paid for your manual super batch in the Manage Super Batch Payment page.
