If you need to change an employee's name because they have legally changed their name or if the current name is incorrect, you must update the name in two places on the employee record. Also, you should ask the employee if there are changes to their bank account name or superannuation account name. To change their name:
Go to Payroll, Maintenance, Employees, Employees.
Edit the employee.
On Personal Details, update the required name field.
Select Tax Details and click TFN Declaration.
This will open the Employee TFN Declaration window. Update question 2 Name fields.
Click OK.
Click OK again.
Changing an employee's name won't affect STP data or create a duplication for the employee in MyGov.
