Fund Employer ID Source: This field tells the report where to get the “Superannuation Fund Generated Employer Identifier” from so that it can populate column “AG” of the export file. You can select from Superfund or Payer:

  • Superfund - retrieves the employer ID from the record relating to the payment made an employee
  • Payer - retrieves the employer ID from either Company Settings or the Internal Company the employee was paid by as defined by your selection in the report setting field “Sender/Payer Population”.

    Important: The Superannuation Fund Generated Employer Identifier is a unique ID number that represents the relationship between an employer and a single superannuation provider/fund.

The 'Employee', 'Superannuation Fund' and 'Other member' fields listed above are mandatory for this report but optional in the database.

Employer/Payer data is retrieved from either CompanySettings or the Internal Companies based on the setting you apply to the report setting field “Sender/Payer Population”. If you do not/cannot use the Superannuation Fund to record your Superannuation Fund Generated Employer Identifier (aka Employer ID field), please ensure you populate the "Super intermediary employer ID" on Company Settings and/or each Internal Company record. Not doing this may result in column "AG" being blank and cause a rejection of your SAFF file upon submission. .
