There are several upcoming changes to payroll management due to the upcoming rollout of Single Touch Payroll (STP) Phase 2.

Get Ready for STP2 Reporting

The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has announced that the way you need to report your payroll information is changing this year.

BusinessHub is here to help you make the transition with our Hub of resources and how-to tips.

MYOB Exo Employer Services users will need to transition to STP Phase 2 reporting before your first pay run in the 2023 financial year.

To start STP Phase 2 reporting, you’ll need to upgrade your software and then review/update your STP Phase 2 settings in between pay runs.

This is best done after you have familiarised yourself with the STP Phase 2 requirements and successfully submitted your last Pay Event under the current STP regime (your current MYOB Exo Employer Services version should be 2021.03).

The compliance upgrade (that includes STP Phase 2) of MYOB Exo Employer Services (2022.01) is currently available.

We encourage you to upgrade and make the transition in before the busy EOFY period.

Before upgrading check that:

  • There are no open pays within the system (either current or one off pays)
  • All users have closed their MYOB Exo Employer Services applications
  • You are running the upgrade under a Windows account that has administrative privileges
  • If your payroll is installed on a server, it is NOT recommended to run this upgrade from a local PC. Please see your system administrator as this process should be performed on the server by the network administrator.
