LenethHi Leneth,
I've set it up at the first place before I ask the support. the matter was the manager did not tell me what the country is that the WHM come from.
So, I could not sent out STP to ATO. That was why I'd have a help from MYOB support team.
Up to today, when I entered the country and the STP report is able to be sent out.
Thank you very much for your support.

Hi Sherry,
Thank you for getting back to me.
I have done the above. How do I change the PAYG to deduct 32.5% please?
Thank you
Steph
Can I set up another PAYG withholding category to make up the additional tax to 32.5%?
