How do I run the Payroll Summary?¶

The Payroll Summary gives you one line per employee — their total gross, tax, super, deductions and net pay across every pay run in the period you choose.

Step 1. Go to Reports in the sidebar, then under Payroll click Payroll Summary.

Step 2. If you manage more than one business, choose the business from the dropdown. Then set the from and to dates. The report includes every pay run whose pay date falls in that range, and it opens on the current financial year by default.

Step 3. Read the report on screen — one row per employee, showing Gross, Tax, Super, Deductions and Net Pay, with a Grand Total row at the bottom. Only employees paid during the period appear.

Step 4. To save or share it, click Download and choose PDF or Excel (.xlsx).

Tip: the Payroll Activity Summary shows the same figures broken down pay run by pay run — use it when you need to see each individual pay run rather than a per-employee total.

Important: if you're an accountant working inside a client's business, the report is locked to that client automatically and the business dropdown is hidden.
