Include employees previously finalised in this financial year Only tick if you want to include previously finalised records.


Step 3: Click and select employees, talent and freelancer records 

Files can be prepared for a single record or multiple records.

When preparing end of year finalisation, we recommend that you include all records, including inactive.

We also recommend that you send separate files for employees, talent and freelancers.

In the example below we are preparing a file for all employees including inactive you can right click and select all employees.


Step 4: Reconcile and Submit to the ATO

We recommend that you reconcile the file to the payslip listing report. The file can also be exported to csv for reconciliation.
