STP Setup Guide

Overview

This section only applies to:

• New PayGlobal customers
• Existing PayGlobal customers who are modifying there environment, .e.g. changing the machine PayGlobal is installed on.

BEFORE attempting to submit your first STP submission (pay event or finalisation event), you MUST complete the tasks in the Setup Checklist.

Not completing all tasks before making the first submission could lead to easily preventable submission errors/payload rejections.

IMPORTANT: A working knowledge of network protocols and security are required. Therefore we recommend having these tasks completed by an MYOB PayGlobal Professional Services Consultant in conjunction with your organisation's own IT administrators.

Setup Checklist

1. Install the MYOB SSL Certificate.
2. Open outbound secure port.
3. Check settings on Proxy Servers (if proxy servers are used)
4. Update HR.ini file
5. STP System Configuration
6. Configure your allowances to meet ATO reporting requirements
7. Configure your deductions to meet ATO reporting requirements
8. For each payer in your database:
   1. Identify the Intermediaries
   2. Decide how submissions will be made from PayGlobal (automatically or manually)
   3. Ensure the correct ABN and Branch number are applied to every Internal company record that has STP reportable employees
   4. Set an STP start date and STP v4 start date for submissions
   5. Get a SID from PayGlobal
   6. Register the SID with the ATO.

      This authorizes MYOB to submit data on your behalf to the ATO.

      By completing this authorization, you agree to the MYOB Terms Of Use.

9. Flag non-reportable employees
10. Access to Single Touch Payroll Manager Tool
11. Verify Environment Readiness
12. Complete employee data validation checks

Note: Some additional data clean-up may also be required. This mainly relates to ensuring your employee and payer details meet ATO validation rules. For example, post codes within Australia must be 4 digits - meaning anyone in the Northern Territory needs to ensure their 3 digit post codes are prefixed with leading zero. This sort of data clean-up can be done in ANY PayGlobal version. For further details see Appendix 2 - Data Validation
