The Australian Tax Office (ATO) has announced Single Touch Payroll (STP) reporting changes which impact your payroll reporting. The expansion, known as STP Phase 2 (STP2) requires you to update employee fields and reporting categories, complete a STP2 readiness checklist once your product is upgraded, and report pay runs to the ATO in order to be compliant.
MYOB and Momentum are helping you manage the transition
You will need to upgrade to version 2022.01 of MYOB Exo Employers Service (which is now available) by July 1 2022.
