Unfinalised STP

Question

One of our clients have received an email from the ATO about Unfinalised STP reports had not been received.

I have looked in the MYOB and the finalisation reporting has been completed and each employee has a tick next to their name..

Ths was completed before we rolled the new financial year - is there anyway this can be fixed and reported properly to the ATO?

Thanks :)

Hi&nbsp;KristyH&nbsp;
&nbsp;
If the ATO have not received notification that EOPY has been finalised you can try undoing the finalisation then redo it. This should push the finalisation through to the ATO.
This link will help with undoing a finalisation -&nbsp;EOFY with STP
&nbsp;
Before doing that though I would recommend a phone call to the ATO to confirm the information in the email is correct and which employees are affected.&nbsp; My thoughts are that employees usually lodge their tax returns asap and your client would have heard from one of them if there was an issue with their Income Statements.
&nbsp;
Let me know how you go

Thank you for your reply - i can see that my previosu reports were rejected.

I have undone the finalisation and am now getting the below errors

Your nomination with the online (cloud) software provider does not contain the correct Software ID. (ATO error code: SBR.GEN.AUTH.008)

Hi&nbsp;KristyH&nbsp;
&nbsp;
That error is generated by the ATO and means there is an issue with the Software ID provided when setting up STP.
&nbsp;
You will need to call the ATO or notify them through Access Manager.&nbsp; I'll give you the links to both MYOB support notes and the ATO website which will help sort out your issue.
Notify the ATO you're using MYOB for STP
ATO website - notify us of a hosted SBR software service
&nbsp;
When you have notified the ATO and all is sorted you can process a $0 payrun to push the correct YTD amounts to the ATO and the EOFY verfication report. You will need to restore a backup to process $0 pays in the previous FY.

Our STP reporting has and is reporting correctly each payrun though since STP has been setup?&nbsp;so why would there be an error with the software ID now ??&nbsp;I would of thought if there was an error with the ID we wouldnt be able to send the weekly reports via STP?

Hi&nbsp;KristyH&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Issues with the ATO servers can cause errors like yours. I have seen reports rejected with the errors wrong Software ID or ABN but the problem was the ATO servers crashing.
&nbsp;
Try redoing the finalisation, if your report is rejected again due to the same error you will need to ring the ATO or check the ID in the ATO Business Portal&gt;Access Manager
