Changing over Business & dealing with STP

Question

One of the partners passed away so I have had to change the business mid year close off the STP and re-do the wages using the new ABN.
My accountant arranged to have the the payroll changed to $0.00 and I went into payroll reporting and changed the YTD to reflect the old ABN then the new, a bit of a long process but I thought everything was OK !
my payroll activity report are correct and show the new ABN, but my account rang to say evertyhing is still in the OLD ABN at the ATO when I print of the reports from the payroll reporting this confirms exactly that.
Hope someone can help before I throw the compunter accross the Room..........Just kidding..........or maybe not !

Hi&nbsp;Fox-20&nbsp;
&nbsp;
There are 2 areas where the STP centre reads the information. I'm wondering if it has been updated in one but not the other.
&nbsp;
Can you check that it has been updated in both fields: 1. Setup &gt; Company Information&gt; ABN or TFN (and ABN Branch if relevant)2. Payroll &gt; Payroll Reporting &gt; Company Information &gt;&nbsp;ABN (and ABN Branch if relevant)
Once it is showing correctly, you will then need to send through a report to send the information from AccountRight to the ATO. To do this&nbsp;You can process a $0 pay (a pay where all the hours and amounts are removed) which, when sent to the ATO, will act as an update event by submitting the company information; including employer ABN.&nbsp;
