Viewing and Adjusting IRD Data

This section discusses how to review and adjust the child support variation.

Four pages enable you to view IRD reporting. In one of them you can change the status of the data. In another you can adjust the Child Support Variation code.

IRD345/6 Deductions and IRD348 Deductions

These two pages are in a single component. On the first page — IRD345/6 Deductions — you can see, for both half-months, the total PAYE deductions & withholding tax, and child support, student loan, and SSCWT deductions.

On the second page — IRD348 Deductions — you can see gross earnings, gross not liable for earner premium, PAYE deductions and withholding tax, and child support and student loan deductions. On this page you can change the status from issued to IRD 348 Ready if you need to recreate the data and if you haven't actually submitted the electronic file. If for some reason you have create the electronic file but do not want it to be submitted, you can also set the status to Not (to be) Issued.

IR348 Details

On the Review EE IR348 Data NZL page (navigation Global Payroll & Absence Mgmt > Authority Correspondence > Review EE IR348 Data NZL > Review EE IR348 Data NZL), you can view employee level IR 348 data and adjust the Child Support Variation code if required.

IRD Exceptions Inquiry Page

On the IRD Exceptions Inquiry page, you can view current data, which comes from the NZ IRD Exception record and the "as issued" data which is from the NZ IRD Details record. The system displays "as issued" data when there is a valid exception code.

Field or Control

Description

Lump Sum

The system selects this check box if there is a value in EXTRA EMLMNT FMTDA (Extra Emolument - WA Reporting) accumulator for the month.

CS Variation (child support variation)

You can manually override the variation code if there is a value in the Child Support field. If there is no value in that field, the system displays 0 in the CS Variation field.

  • A: Advance pay.

  • C: Ceased employment.

  • D: Deducted previously.

  • P: Protected earnings.

  • S: Short-term absence.

  • O: Other. This is the default value if there is no value in the Child Support field.

If the normal amount of the Child Support deduction is not the same as the amount in the month-to-date accumulator, the system determines why, using the IRD specified order of priority, and sets the CS variation code according to the conditions:

  • If the payee is terminated (that is, has a finish date): code C.

  • If there is a value in the CS Advance month-to-date accumulator: code A.

  • If there is a value in the CS Not Taken month-to-date accumulator: code P.

  • If the C, A or P codes are not appropriate: O.
