You understand the WINZ reconciliation process within Enrolmy
Sometimes, WINZ works in mysterious ways and it is common for WINZ Payments to be paid out irregularly. Some weeks, you will receive a payment for an attendee that is intended to cover a date period that is long gone. Arrears payments are usually identified in two ways on the WINZ Statement:
1. An Arrears payment with a specified date range
2. An arrears payment with an unspecified date range
The Enrolmy Reconciliation Process handles these arrears payments in different ways.
Reconciling an Arrears payment with a specified date range
1. Arrears payments will be revealed on the week that the WINZ Statement specified - even if the WINZ Statement was originally uploaded into a different week.
2. To identify the week that the arrears payment appeared on, that week will show as a partially reconciled status on the subsidy overview page. Clicking into the week and saving and finalizing the form, will generate a WINZ Credit Note for the arrears payment
Reconciling an Arrears payment with an unspecified date range
If the WINZ Statement does not specify a date range for the arrears payment, then the arrears payment will display on the week that the WINZ Statement is uploaded against. A WINZ Credit Note will be created for the arrears payment when the subsidy reconciliation is saved and finalized for that week.
Important
You will complete the WINZ reconciliation process as per usual whether you have regular payments or arrears payments.
