CDEP Payments

Community Development Employment Projects (CDEPs) administered by ATSIC, provide job opportunities in community organisations across Australia. Wages paid with funds from the CDEPs must be tracked and recorded on a separate line on the employee Payment Summary. When the CDEP Funding option is selected, a CDEP pay rate will appear in the Employee Record – Pay Rates tab.

To record CDEP payments:

On the Employee record – Taxation tab select þ CDEP Funding. This will allow you to select a CDEP pay rate.

Click on the Pay Rates tab.

 From the Pay Rates column, select CDEP Payment, and enter the payment details.

 If the CDEP payment is a once-off single time payment, you can record the payment when you prepare the pay, through the Pay Details window.

When you issue Payment Summaries, CDEP amounts will be shown separately.
