Map Termination Reasons to ATO Cessation Types (AUS)

Map Termination Reasons to ATO Cessation Types (AUS)

Security:
Set Up: Payroll (Termination) - AUS
 in the AUS Payroll functional area.
Map the termination reasons that you use in Workday to the cessation reasons that the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) uses, so that terminations are correctly reported in the STP process.
If you don't map termination reason to an ATO Cessation Type, the default cessation type will be used.
  1. Access the
    Maintain AUS Payroll Termination Configuration
     task.
  2. Select the configuration period or effective date that you’re setting up the termination configuration for.
  3. Enter a default cessation type. The default type is used if an unmapped termination reason is used.
  4. For each termination reason in the grid, select an ATO Cessation type.
  5. If the termination reason is for Invalidity, select the
    Cessation Type: Invalidity
     checkbox. When this checkbox is selected, an additional tax-free portion is applied to the worker's termination pay.
