Comments

The Pre Tax figure may be reported either GST-inclusive or GST-exclusive, depending on your organisation's payroll configuration. Both treatments are valid and reflect how the deduction is processed within your payroll setup.

If you are unsure which GST treatment applies to your organisation, contact Catch-e Support for clarification rather than assuming the report calculation is incorrect.

Note: The automated Pay Run Preview email distributed before a pay run uses the same GST treatment and calculation methodology as your Pay Run Reports, ensuring consistency between the preview and final reporting.

Why isn't an employee on the Pay Run Summary Report?

If an employee you expect to see is missing from the Pay Run Summary Report, it is usually one of the reasons below.

Common reasons

  • The pay run is an ad-hoc run. Ad-hoc (out-of-cycle) runs list only the employees adjusted in that run β€” run the regular pay run to see the full roster.

  • No active packaging and no recent deductions. Employees appear when they have deductions in the current or previous pay run, or an active packaging item covering the pay period.

  • The packaging item's dates don't cover the period. Check the item's start and end dates against the pay run's billing date.

  • The employee is on a different pay cycle. The report covers one pay cycle (e.g. fortnightly); an employee on another cycle appears on that cycle's report.

  • The employee's transactions were removed. If deductions were deleted after a run, the employee can drop off.

What to check

  • Open Employees / Transactions for the employee and confirm whether transactions exist for the pay run.

  • Confirm the packaging item is active and its dates cover the period.

  • Confirm you are running the correct pay cycle, and that it is a regular (not ad-hoc) run.
