APPROVAL OF PAYMENT SUMMARIES
If you contact the ATO re approval of payment summaries etc, they have had the lastest version registered with them using the online ATO ECI self test system. This is the latest version.
FBT ON PAYMENT SUMMARIES
You only need enter FBT into PAYMAN where the taxable amount
is
greater than $2000. Any amount less than this will not appear on
Payment

From 2009/2010 onwards, if an employee receives salary sacrifice in the form of superanuation, this needs to be reported on the Payment Summaries as well as the EMPDUPE file. This amount can be added or edited through Data Entry and viewed on the Payment Summary report under Year End.
