Lodging PAYG Payment Summary Report via SBR

The ATO requires that all businesses submit PAYG payment summary information for their employees by August 14. To make this simpler for you, you are now able to lodge the PAYG payment summaries electronically through the payroll platform.

Please Note - Electronic submission of payment summaries is not allowed when the payee address details are incomplete, or when employees have supplied an invalid TFN.

Prior to following the steps below, make sure you have updated your ATO Settings details. You can update these by clicking on 'Payroll Settings' > 'ATO Settings'. Make sure all the details are complete on the ATO Supplier Settings tab. 

Then on the 'Electronic Lodgement & STP' tab, ensure you are enabled for electronic lodgement. If you are not, refer to ATO Cloud software authentication and authorisation (CAA) for instructions in setting this up.

Now, simply follow these steps:

1. First, make sure you have generated and published your PAYG payment summaries for your employees.
   
   
2. From the 'Payment Summaries' screen, select the Employing Entity (if applicable) > click on the 'Show Payment Summaries' option > click on 'Lodge':
   
   
   
3. A pop-up box will appear - make the appropriate selection of what you want to lodge, tick that you accept the terms and conditions and then click on "'Lodge now':
   
   
   
4. The file will go through a validation process and if everything is correct, the following confirmation message will appear:
   
   
   
5. The lodgement process is complete! 

Once Payment Summaries have been lodged you will be able to view a Lodgement Receipt number by hovering over the 'Status' field on the payment summary:

This Lodgement Receipt number is also available within the excel file that is available for download.

N.B. If you have unpublished payment summaries when you commence the lodgement process, the following message will appear:

You can still lodge the payment summaries, however, you will need to submit a further lodgement once the unpublished payment summaries are published.
