ATO pre-fill for wages and PAYG

Ccar

This is my first BAS using STP.  The MYOB file shows the correct amount of wages paid and PAYG.  I can connect to the ATO from the Payroll Command Centre, but when I try to lodge the BAS online, there is no wages or PAYG pre-fill from the ATO. I cannot find the reason for this

Hi @Ccar 

 

Thanks for your post. Your BAS set up and lodgement is separate to STP. The fields in your BAS are pre-filled based on the tax codes and payroll categories you select when setting up your BAS. If wage amounts are not pre-filling you need to log into online BAS, then:

 

1. click on Settings
2. select Set up activity statement fields
3. at W1 and W2 select the applicable payroll categories
4. open the current activity statement 
5. click on Update from ledger

This help article, Getting ready to lodge activity statements online , has detailed instructions.

 

Please let me know if you need further help.
