STP for Local file Accounts Right plus v19

[Goenza]

Hi, 

I have a question abou STP(Singule Touch Payroll) that will be introduced payroll obligation from 1st July 2018,

I've currently used Local software of MYOB Accounting Right Plus version19,

and that is local soft ware not online connection.

In order to follow STP regulation to report payroll details every cycle,

Must I switch to online  or cloud software? 

or Do I have an option to keep using current local soft of MYOB Accounting Right with other reporting system for STP??

My company has over 20 employees so will be needed for preparation for STP...

If anyone know about STP solution for current local accounting software user,

please give me advice.

Hi @Goenza

Welcome to the MYOB Community Forum, I hope you find it a wealth of knowledge

As has been mentioned on Single Touch Payroll (STP), Single Touch Payroll will be made available to clients on AccountRight 2018 and later. If you are using AccountRight Classic* v19, then you are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version of the AccountRight 201x range (currently 2017.2) to ensure you are ready to meet your STP reporting obligations Help Article: Upgrade to the new AccountRighthas more information on the upgrade process. 

*Clients who are unable to move to an STP enabled version of AccountRight, because they are currently using multi-currency, negative inventory, multi location inventory, M-Powered Payment or ODBC and those using AccountEdge, have been granted an STP reporting deferral until 31 May 2019.

Hi @Goenza

Have a look at https://singletouch.com.au/single_touch_csv_overview and https://singletouch.com.au/single_touch_payroll_faq under 'Can we send a .csv to the ATO'. For users with older versions of MYOB etc this company provides a optional csv upload which they will process and send to the ATO . "If you cannot use the Single Touch API to integrate with your existing payroll software, Single Touch will provide you with a tailored .CSV for upload to singletouch.com.au where it will be converted, secured and delivered to the ATO."
