Submitting superannuation information from 1 July 2026
⚠️Important:
The Super Export option from Payroll, Reports, Superannuation, Super Funds Export will NOT be available from 1 July 2026.
You'll need to set up and use the SuperStream Alternate File Format (SAFF) or ClickSuper options.
Reporting using SAFF or ClickSuper can now be done through the new Payday Super menus in Attaché Payroll, and do NOT need to be done through the old super reporting methods i.e.:
Payroll, Reports, Superannuation, ClickSuper.
Payroll, Reports, Superannuation, SuperStream Alternate File.
Update your employer details in relation to Payday super
⚠️Important for employers.
The ABN on the STP2 file, must match the ABN on the super file for the ATO to successfully match the data.
If you pay your salary and wages from a different ABN to your super payments, this will need to be addressed before submitting your STP.
