The Wage Costs section of a pay batch and the Pay Enquiry Pay Batch Summary screen include a column that displays the sum of superannuation transferred to a given fund during the relevant period, helping payroll clerks track transfer activity against accrued superannuation.

To access the Wage Costs section:

To access the Pay Batch Summary, click Pay Enquiry, then click Pay Batch Summary.

The column has been renamed from Transferred Within the Contribution Period to Balance Transferred in both the Wage Costs section and the Pay Enquiry Pay Batch Summary screen. This label change applies regardless of the payment date of the pay batch.

The value displayed in the Balance Transferred column now applies date-conditional logic based on the payment date of the relevant pay batch:

Where the payment date is before 1 July 2026, the existing calculation is retained. The Balance Transferred column continues to display the sum of superannuation transferred to the corresponding fund where the transfer date falls within the same contribution period (SuperPeriod) as the payment date of the current batch.

Where the payment date is on or after 1 July 2026, contribution period scoping no longer applies. The Balance Transferred column instead displays the sum of superannuation transferred to the corresponding fund where the transfer date falls within the same financial year, 1 July to 30 June, as the payment date of the relevant batch.

This update ensures that the Balance Transferred column remains accurate and meaningful following the removal of contribution periods under the payday superannuation legislative changes effective 1 July 2026.

The updated column label more clearly reflects the purpose of the field for both pre-transition and post-transition pay batches, and payroll clerks can continue to rely on the figure to reconcile superannuation transfers against accrued amounts within the applicable period.
