Foreign Employment Dates

Employees who are Australian residents for tax purposes, and work in another country, are considered foreign workers, and all monies earned while on foreign assignment are considered foreign income.

To correctly track and report taxable foreign employment using the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system, you must complete these steps:

  1. Enter the dates of all taxable foreign employment assignments for the Australian residents who work for your organization.

    You use the Foreign Employment Dates program (P75A0150) to enter and maintain this information.

    See Entering Foreign Employment Date Records.

  2. After you have entered all foreign employment date records, you then run the PAYG Payment Summary Extract File program (R75A0140), which creates standard payment summaries. You must then create foreign employment payment summaries by manually entering the payment summary information, or by importing a spreadsheet directly into the F75A0140 table.

    Note:

    Manual creation of foreign payment summaries is required in the base release of 9.1. However, a software update, made available after the general availability of Release 9.1, includes functionality to create payroll history for foreign assignments, and to automatically create foreign payment summaries when processing the PAYG Payment Summary Extract File program.

    For additional information about this software update, see (AUS) Setting Up Foreign Employment Information.

  3. After you have entered, generated or imported foreign employment payment summaries, you can then print payment summaries to distribute to your employees.

    Four payment summary print programs are available to accommodate foreign employment information:

    • R75A0195: Foreign Employment Payment Summary Original Window Facing - NAT72715B

    • R75A0200: Foreign Employment Payment Summary Original Z-Fold - NAT72715A

    • R75A0205: Foreign Employment Payment Summary Amended Window Facing - NAT72714B

    • R75A0215: Foreign Employment Payment Summary Amended Z-Fold - NAT72714A

  4. After creating the extract file and, if necessary, adding your foreign employment records to that file, you then create the EMPDUPE file that is sent to the ATO for processing. To create this file, you run the Create ATO Extract File EMPDUPE program (R75A0145), which includes the foreign employment payment summaries from the F75A0140.
