Update event should be a Pay event
I was going to lodge October PAYG with the ATO but have noticed the amounts don't balance. It appears as though the first pay run for October has been reported as an Update Event $0.00 and not a Pa...

The pay run has reported to ATO as $0. What do I do to send an update event as the pay run value?
Hi Chapman1,
If the pay date is older than the date of recording, the STP report will recognise the payment as an update and will label the amounts as zero. In this case, the STP report is not the best report to base it on. It would be best to check the YTD verification report and ensure the payroll register and payroll summary reports match it. As long as those three reports are correct, the ATO will receive accurate data. So make sure to send an update event.
Thanks,
