Yearly basis for calculating maximum super contributions
On the Payroll > Super tab of the HR Module Control form, we've added a Basis column to the SGC Thresholds table. For the 2026–2027 financial year, we've set the basis to yearly. You don't need to make any further changes.
Reminder
SGC thresholds only apply to an employee if a threshold is selected in the SGC Min/Max Check field on the Tax Config tab of the HR Employee Maintenance field. If the field is blank, your company will continue to contribute super to the employee's pay even when they earn more than the maximum threshold.
If you have additional obligations to pay super under an industrial instrument, such as an award or agreement, then you should use a custom threshold.
Super gurarantee warning when paying employees under 18
When a pay includes an under-18 employee who isn't paid weekly, you now get a reminder that you might need to manually adjust the SGC employer cost.
For more details, see Paying super guarantee to employees under 18 years old.
Easier to run reports for a specific pay
Because you'll be paying super more frequently, we've made it easier to run reports for specific pays. For the following reports, you can select either the new Batch number option or the existing Payment Date option:
-
HR Authority Remittance Report
-
HR Authority Remittance Export Report
-
HR Super Compliance Statement Report
New report for superannuation year-to-date summary
From 01 July 2026, use the new HR Superannuation YTD Summary Report, instead of the old HR Super Reconciliation Report.
To access the report, go to HR > Payroll > Reports > Superannuation YTD Summary. Enter the Payment Date you are running the report for. Optionally, you can use the other parameters to run the report for a more specific group of employees.
After running the report, review any variances and make adjustments if required.
No changes to the Superstream Alternative File format (SAFF)
You still include the file as usual when sending super payments to a super fund or a super clearing house.
