If you have inadvertently sent your final year to date figures to the ATO as send zero, please follow the below instructions to rectify.
By performing the below steps, this new file will overwrite the previous incorrect file that was reported.
Log into Access WageEasy
Select STP2 from the Standard Toolbar.
Select STP Update.
Ensure the All Employees box is ticked, and the correct Financial Year is displaying, OK.
Select Mark All as Final. This will tick the Final Pay box for every employee. This step is important to finalise the year and set the employees' myGov accounts to Tax Ready.
Make sure Send Zero is not ticked
Review each record you will be reporting in the Update Event to check the values and information that will be reported. You can compare values with those in the ATO Payment Summary Report checking for correct display of values, i.e. Allowances, FBT and RESC.
When you are ready to report the STP Update, click Report to ATO.
The Report to ATO Declaration window will display. Tick the declaration and select Report.
Note: The STP Update Event header record will show zero values. On the STP2 Reporting screen, in Reported Pay Events, double click the Update Event line and you will see your employees' values. All values reported to the ATO are always the employees' latest YTD values and never per period values.
