You cannot report through Single Touch Payroll if the end-of-year cutoff date has passed into the next financial year, and you have not reported any transactions for an employee in a Single Touch Payroll batch in the previous financial year. For example;
The previous FY is 01/07/22 to 30/06/2023.
The date is now 01/07/2023 or later.
No pay transactions were recorded and included in a STP batch for an employee or employees between 01/07/22 to 30/06/2023.
If this is the case, you will need to do manual payment summaries for the employees.
You can find information for creating a Manual payment summary at the ATO site: PAYG payment summary – individual non-business.
