Hi JANELLE
In compliance with ATO rules, the date entered for the payment date must not be later than the day you lodge it with the ATO. Our software does allow future dated pay runs to be entered, however, STP will throw an error (CMN.ATO.PAYEVNT.000199 - The date entered for the pay/update Date must not be later than today's date).
Pay/Update Date is a field - is the Date of Payment for a normal payroll reporting transaction, however when reporting an Update, it is the Update Date. According to ATO documentation, when reporting payroll, you can report a future payment day - CMN.ATO.PAYEVNT.000199 does not apply here.
However when reporting an Update, the Pay/Update Date field cannot be later than today. Updates are for corrections and EOY Finalisation. You are advising of a correction today, the new figures are correct today.
