Regarding the Calculation of STP Qualifying Earnings (QE)

In the lead-up to the activation of QE Reporting in FY27, you will want to configure your Payroll to ensure QE reports accurately when the time comes. 

Note that the ATO is allowing some leeway for Employers to get QE reporting right throughout FY27. 

You can read more about this on their “Payday super: How to manage super during the changeover” webpages at this link. https://www.ato.gov.au/businesses-and-organisations/super-for-employers/payday-super/payday-super-how-to-manage-super-during-the-changeover 

The ATO website linked above also provides important information on calculating QE, including which Payroll Transaction Codes should be included in Qualifying Earnings.
