Hi kikidedes,

 

Thank you for your post.

 

Could you advise if the client is now on STP Phase 2? If they are, STP 2 now allows users to enter their previous BMS ID so that their employees' latest year-to-date payroll information will be sent to the ATO under the 1 BMS ID, without needing to zero out the Pay history in the previous software. 

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu and choose Single Touch Payroll reporting.
  2. Click the ATO settings tab.
  3. Click Edit STP business details (near the bottom of the screen).
  4. Follow the prompts to set up STP again.
  5. At the Transferring BMS ID step, select Yes and enter the Previous software BMS ID.

If you had any further queries on this, please feel free to reach out.

In case you/ the client were unsure what the previous BMS ID was, you can find it via the ATO's online services:

 

  1. Log into the ATO's online services.
  2. Go to Employees > STP reporting (agents go to Business > STP reporting).
  3. Click the dropdown arrow next to one of your STP reports.
  4. Copy the Business Management software (BMS) ID so you can paste it into the Previous softwareBMS ID field in MYOB when prompted (see above).
