Wage Expenses
Wage Expenses is a row on Mega Report. It reports the total of Expense Towards Report as shown in the popup you see when clicking it.
The popup has the following columns.
Examples will assume you are doing fortnightly payruns and looking at a popup for a specific week.
| Column | Description | Formula / Source |
| Practitioner | Staff member | Employee in Xero |
| Start Date / End Date | Payrun Period (IE: fortnight) | Payrun for that employee as reported by Xero |
| Total Expense | Payrun total | Total payrun amount (fortnight, including super) |
| Expense towards report | Total expenses for period (IE: week). You would expect this to be half the Total Expense if looking at 1 week with fortnightly pays if they work the same hours both weeks. |
Total payrun amount for the period you are looking at (IE: week) aka: sum of columns (dated+distributed+super) |
| Report Expense Minus Leave | Same as Expense Towards Report but excluding leave pay. |
|
| Dated Expense | The expense directly attributed to this time period excluding super. EG: would be approx half | Payrun portions (excluding super) specifically allocated to days in this week |
| Distributed expense | Any payrun amounts that don't have dates are evenly distributed across the period. EG: if you get $100 per weekday and the fortnightly pay was $1200 then the extra $200 would be spread amonst the days as we don't know how else to allocate it. | Sum of payrun amounts without dates divided by workdays in payrun period (fortnight) which then get spread evenly over the period you are looking at (EG: weekly) |
| Super | Portion of payrun allocated to super for the current period (IE: half the super for the fortnight) |
