At some point, you'll likely need to pay a termination payment for one of your employees.

To do this, make sure you're in Run Payroll and click on 'New Payroll'.

Check and edit as required your Pay Run Period, Pay Period Ending Date and Payment Date and select ‘Let’s Start!’

Now that you're in the Adjust page of the pay run, click on '+'.

Scroll up and select 'Termination'.

Enter the Termination date.

Add in the reason for termination. The options are: voluntary, ill health, deceased, redundancy, dismissal, contract ended or transfer.

If your employee has annual leave loading, this figure will automatically be added to the total for any unused annual leave amount. If you need to add any additional hours you can customise this section.


If you would like to remove annual leave loading from the termination payment make sure to remove the leave loading from your employee card before proceeding.


If you need to pay out long service leave (without leave loading), a redundancy (Type ‘R’) payment, or an ETP Type ‘O’ payment, enter this in the sections provided.


For more information regarding what an ETP Type O Payment Redundancy (Type R) Payment is refer to the ATO. It is also worth speaking to your accountant to calculate just how much ETP Type O and redundancy Payment you are required to pay (if there is any at all).


Once you have finished entering those details select the arrows on the right or swipe left on the screen

After reviewing the summary, select the arrows on the right or swipe left on the screen.

Press the button to complete

Select ‘Submit’ to submit STP to the ATO.

The employees' payslip will now show this amount.
