Another feature that is great about MYOB Business Pro is the payroll system. I can input all my employees’ different pay rates. It is all automated in the system, which makes it super easy when I'm processing pay on a Monday morning. It's as simple as putting in the hours and then MYOB automatically calculates their pay.

How do I set up payroll in my MYOB software?

Setting up payroll in your MYOB software is simple, and takes 3 easy steps: 

  1. Set up payroll for your business – start by entering a few details about how payroll works in your business. 

  2. Set up employees – you'll need to set up each of your full-time, part-time and casual employees. New employees can submit their own details. 
    If you've already paid an employee this payroll year using different software, you can enter the amounts you've already paid them. 

  3. Set up reporting obligations – you're almost done. The last step is to set up Single Touch Payroll reporting to ensure your information is reported correctly to the ATO. And finally, you'll set up the superannuation payments you'll contribute for your employees.

Nope. And there are no lock-in contracts either. Pay monthly and enjoy the flexibility to cancel anytime.
