The SuperStream batch search results list displays all open, closed, and cancelled SuperStream batches.
To access it:
Click Payroll, then click Pay Process.
Click SuperStream.
The list includes a column that provides identifying information about each batch, helping payroll officers distinguish between batches when multiple are present.
What's changed
Previously, this column was labelled Contribution Payment Period and displayed the name and date range of the contribution period associated with each batch, for example, Monthly January 2026 | 01/01/2026 – 31/01/2026.
Payday-based batches are not associated with a contribution period, so the column did not display meaningful identifying information for those batches.
The column has been renamed to Payment Period / Payday to reflect that it serves both types of SuperStream batch. The content displayed is determined by the reporting model used when the batch was created:
For batches created using the Report by Contribution Period option
The column continues to display the contribution period name and date range in the existing format, for example, Monthly January 2026 | 01/01/2026 – 31/01/2026. There is no change to the display for these batches.
For batches created using the Report by Payday option
The column displays the Regular Payday as the full day name followed by the Payment Cut Off Date in DD/MM/YYYY format, separated by a dash, for example, Wednesday - 31/07/2026.
Benefits
This update ensures that payday-based SuperStream batches are clearly and meaningfully identified in the batch search results list, allowing payroll officers to quickly distinguish between payday-based and contribution period-based batches when both types are present.
