Step 1: Create Remittance Record
- Go to:
Payroll Administrator > Australia > Super: Payroll Remittance > New - Enter Start and End Date, and Subsidiary if applicable
A pending contribution is a payslip detail line of Employee Super, Employer Super, Extra Super, or Super Salary Sacrifice with Wrkr as the vendor, and not previously paid.
A summary line will be displayed for each employee with total contributions and breakdowns by type.
๐ก Payrun Difference: The date range does not auto-populate like a Pay Run, providing flexibility for varying payment frequencies.
๐ OneWorld Note: Subsidiary field appears only in OneWorld accounts with multiple subsidiaries.
Select a start and end date for the period you want to create the super remittance for. The employees will show in the list - we added the ability to resolve issues before submission to Wrkr or downloading the new SAFF file. This ensures a smooth process and you will be less likely to experience any issues using the SAFF file because of this early validation step!
Simply hover over the โ ๏ธ and resolve all data issues.
If system flags issues - To fix:
- Navigate to the Employee record
- Enter required data
- Return and click
Refresh
Step 2: Select Employees
If not paying for all employees, uncheck the Pay checkbox next to each name.
Step 3: Select Super Types
Only tick the Super Types you want to include (e.g., just Employer Super).
Step 4: Review and Submit
Once you have resolved and reviewed (e.g. check the employee detail tab) > Click Create Remittance > A Remittance Record is created.
Step 5: Upload to Wrkr OR Download the SAFF file
Option A) Wrkr Upload > Click upload button and your remittance file will get uploaded to Wrkr

๐ Scheduled Remittance Status Updates
The remittance module includes a Map/Reduce script that checks Wrkr nightly for status updates. The script will:
- Identify remittances with status Submitted Pending Verification or Submitted Manual Verification
- Poll Wrkr for an update on the status of the remittance
- Update the status on the payroll remittance record
Adhoc Update All
The nightly update process can be triggered to update the status of all payroll remittance records asynchronously.
- Open a Remittance Record
- Click More > Initiate Nightly Process
To monitor execution, navigate to Customisation > Scripting > Map/Reduce Script Status.
๐ต Vendor Payment

๐งพ Resubmitting Rejected Contributions
When Contributions Are Rejected:

- Go to the original Remittance Record and click
Resubmit Rejected Remittance(status must beComplete)
- You will be redirected to another page to resubmit rejected remittances:
Steps:
- Selecting
Upload Automaticallywill skip the review step when creating a new remittance; automatically uploading to Wrkr. Checking or uncheckingUpload Automaticallywill refresh the page, so it is best to do this at the start to avoid losing progress. - Select employees whose contributions were rejected.
- If
Resubmit?is selected, a new remittance record will be created whenResubmit Remittanceis clicked, with the selected contributions. Otherwise, the contributions will only be removed from the original remittance record and will be made available when creating a new remittance record in the future. - Click
Resubmit Remittance
A new remittance will be created or contributions held for future runs.
๐ The original Remittance Record will show notes of rejected amounts. Details remain for reconciliation.
Tip: If rejections span multiple remittance records, the best practice is to defer resubmission and batch them together in one remittance, later.
