Hi Ezial
Thanks for your post. Payments are reported to the ATO using one ATO reporting category. Prior to moving to STP Phase 2 you would have had two ATO reporting category fields in the payroll category information window.
The first reporting category field was for Phase 1 and this is how payments were reported to the ATO. The second field was setting up in preparation for moving to Phase 2, payments were not reported using this reporting category.
Once you move to Phase 2 the Phase 1 field is removed from payroll categories as payments are reported using the Phase 2 ATO reporting category. For example, in Phase 1 overtime was reported as Gross payments, in Phase 2 it is reported as Overtime.
If you can provide information on the errors you are getting I'll be happy to assist further.
