GovReports Single Touch Payroll software lets business owners and tax professionals manage payroll and lodge ATO STP lodgement forms from the one place. ,

The introduction of Single Touch Payroll (STP) by the Australian Taxation Office has revolutionised the way business and tax practitioners manage and report payroll data to the ATO. With each ‘pay event’, or payment to employees, employers must report all payroll data to the ATO at the same time.

When your payroll records are right, your lodgments are accurate, meaning you don’t waste time on administrative corrections later. Using GovReports payroll products to manage payroll details streamlines the process of record-keeping for payroll and lodging STP with the ATO.

Single Touch Payroll (STP) reporting has been mandatory for all employers for some time, and now it has been upgraded to STP Phase 2. All GovReports payroll products meet the detailed ATO reporting requirements – so you can sign up for a GovReports subscription confident that you will meet the STP2 employer obligations. ,

Our online payroll solution for small business is designed for small employers that don’t need expensive payroll software but do need an easy and economical solution for payroll and STP2 lodgments.

Whether you use payroll software or keep records manually, you can use GovReports STP software for your online lodgments, as a standalone product, or integrated with other GovReports packages.
