Table of Payroll go-live readiness
How to read the table
The table outlines the key data requirements for Deputy Payroll (AU) in a live payroll environment:
- Each column corresponds to a specific data element (e.g. Bank Account Number)
- Each cell displays the status of that data element using one of three values: True, False or N/A
| Status | Description |
| True | The data element in the employee's profile contains data. |
| False | The data element in the employee’s profile does not contain data. |
| N/A | The data element is not relevant to the employee’s circumstances. For example, if an employee has an APRA-regulated superannuation fund set in their profile, then the self-managed super fund (SMSF) related columns will display as N/A, as they are not applicable to that employee. |
Note: To minimise exposure of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), the report does not display the actual data stored within employee profiles.
The fields which are validated are:
- Pay rate is greater than $0
