Hi everyone
To give a quick rundown of how STP works:
Payruns processed appear in the Payroll reporting centre>>Reports tab and send the YTD amounts to the ATO. Each report overrides the previous one, this means that the ATO take the YTD amounts from the most recent report.
The YTD verification report and Summary of payments reports (both in EOFY finalisation tab) pull the YTD amounts from the employee card>>Pay History and filter by the ATO reporting categories.
The Payroll actvity report gets it's data from pays processed in Process Payroll.
The Payroll register report gets it's data from the employee card>>Pay History.
If the Payroll reports and YTD verification report don't match run the Payroll activity and Payroll register reports. This post, AccountRight reports don't match STP reports, has detailed information.
If the Payroll activity and register reports are the same and you've moved to STP Phase 2, process a $0 pay with payment date as 30 June. Wait until that report is accepted before you recheck the YTD verification report, it can take time to update the figures.
Terminated employees will need their termination dates removed and their cards made active before processing the $0 pay.
