STP prior lodgements needed

[KristineDns]

I have recently had to create payruns going back to March 2022 (ie: last financial year).

Initially I didn't have sufficient info to set up STP but needed to get things happening.

During htis process I got hte info I needed and set up STP and continued to create more payruns which the sytem insisted I lodge via STP so I did.

Now I can't see how to go back and lodge th STP for the earlier payruns.

Can this be done?

Hi @KristineDns 

Thanks for your post. STP sends the Year-to-date (YTD) amounts each time a report is declared. This means that pay runs processed prior to STP set up are included in the YTD amounts when you send the first STP report. You can check the YTD amounts are correct by clicking on the most recent STP report>>View employee YTD report and compare the YTD amounts with the MYOB Business/Essentials payroll reports.

The ATO don't allow STP finalisations for financial years prior to STP set up. If you need to finalise the 2021-22 financial year you will need to contact the ATO to discuss your options.

Please let me know if you need further help.
