Setting Up STP Phase 2 / Enabling STP Phase 2

When transitioning from STP Phase 1 to STP Phase 2 reporting consider when your business intends to commence reporting the additional information to the ATO.

Should employers intend to go live for FY 2021 - FY 2022 ensure when editing or creating new components these are back dated to start date of the financial year ( e.g 1st July 2021 ) to capture all YTD information through STP in order to report the new STP Phase 2 format.

Expected Behaviour

Once you enable STP Phase 2, you’ll be reporting with Phase 2 materials, which once enabled you cannot go back, this means that once STP phase 2 is enabled you cannot disable it.

The STP Phase 2 dropdown is a feature built on top of STP, this means you must have STP enabled for STP Phase 2 to work. This was done to offer more control to the implementations teams
