PAYROLL ERROR - CMN.ATO.PAYEVNTEMP.000282 AFFECTING LAST QTR 2023-24 BAS

In preparing the BAS for the last quarter of the 2023-24 FY, it's clear that the ATO's pre-filled PAYG figures for June only include our payroll for the pay period 03/06/24 to 16/06/24.  The wages for pay period ending 30/06/24 are not included, although the wages totals on employee’s 2023-24 Income Statements and the ATO Verification Report match.

 

The cause of our second payroll in June not pre-filling in the BAS appears to be that our 2023-2024 finalisation was Accepted with Errors: Cessation date cannot be before the Commencement Date (ATO error code: CMN.ATO.PAYEVNTEMP.000282). 

 

The error relates to one employee only, who was terminated in Dec, but who worked 1/2 a day in Feb.  Our accountant has suggested changing our pay period end date to 28th June, but as the error only appears on this one employee's record I'm not confident their advice will solve anything.

 

Following the steps as per the MYOB solution below and changing the employee's termination date to 1st March, returned the same error.

I'm out of ideas.  Grateful for any help on how to fix this!

  • Hi Celetas,

     

    I see you’re facing a challenging issue with the ATO’s pre-filled PAYG figures and the specific error related to the employee’s termination date. To fix the error in your STP report, head over to the STP reporting center >> Employee termination tab and make sure that the terminated employees have a termination reason, and the termination date is after the start date. 

     

    Regarding the amounts not showing on your BAS, this is due to a previous ATO lodgment error. You'll need to manually enter the amounts on your BAS as long as the ATO and YTD match.

     

    Feel free to get in touch if you need more help.

     

    Cheers,
