6.2 Member Amendment Payroll Files

Creating the Member Amendment Upload FileThe payroll file that you upload should be one specifically created for member amendments. Member amendments can be uploaded using your payroll file.

Background Information

Which Fields can be amended?YoucanamendthesamefieldsthatyoucanamendusingtheAMISTSuperClearingHouseAmendMemberDetailse-form.

Remember

Fields used for member identification cannot be amended. These are the fund and the member number, or sometimes the payroll number instead of the member number.

The member number is the primary identification field. If a record does not contain a member number, the payroll number is the primary identification field. If a record contains a member number, the payroll number can be amended.

What is the Effective Date?Business Rule required for effective date of changes.

The effective date (in Superb) is the date that the amendment applies to the Member as provided by you.

Note: Although the amendment has an effective date in Superb, the amendments are applied immediately in AMIST Super Clearing House and do not hold an effective date against the change(s).

If a record in the member amendment upload file contains an effective date, this date is passed onto AMIST Super as the effective date for the amendment. If a record does not contain an effective date, the Member Amendment File Upload page allows you to enter an effective date. The effective date as entered on this page is used for the record or today if left blank.

How do I indicate that an Amendment is required?Member amendment upload files should only contain information in the fields that are being amended. Fields not being amended should be left blank.

If a field is to be cleared, you must place an ‘!’ in the applicable field in the member amendment upload file.

Remember An ‘!’ cannot be used in a mandatory field.

Which fields are mandatory fields?Mandatoryfieldsmustbespecifiedineveryrecordoftheuploadfile,andcannotbechangedfromtheirexistingvalues in AMIST Super Clearing House.

7.4 Receiving Feedback from Choice Funds A number of Choice Funds communicate potential issues with information being received by them or to advise that a refund has been sent to you. You must action any feedback messages to ensure that the error that caused a refund is corrected, prior to the next contribution being remitted. If a refund is received and a new contribution not remitted, you may be in breach of your SG liabilities. Type of feedback and actioning Below are the three types of errors and/or feedback that Employer may receive:

§ Change notification - that a Member Number or Employer Number has been changed, so the money can be allocated faster in the future. Prompt the Employer to update their payroll system if these details are also held there.

§ Return - Money is being returned, after which a new contribution will need to be made after information has been rectified. You must re-process the contribution for the affected member, after the information is corrected, to avoid an SG liability breach

§ Feedback - : Money has been allocated, but information needs to be changed to avoid the money being returned in the future. Ensure that any changes are made in EPay and Payroll System (if applicable) to avoid future returns
