Reconciling STP Data
STP Reconciliation process provides reconciliation between Single Touch Payroll (STP) output files and existing Payment summary data.
In Single Touch Payroll (STP), a Payroll Event (PAYEVNT & PAYEVNTEMP) is created and submitted to ATO each time employees are paid. Before submitting the data to ATO, employers need to check and confirm that the Payroll Event totals match with their payroll results on a Period to Date (PTD) and a Year to Date (YTD) basis. Using the STP Reconciliation process employers can generate reports and perform distinct function to compare values reported in the PAYEVNTEMP file to actual payroll result values at payee level.
Once STP Preparation process is complete, you can run the PSM Data Creation process, which also generates the data for STP reconciliation /comparision. The Create Payment Summary Data process updates the data in the respective staging tables as defined in the configuration. PS Queries are used to compare STP and PSM results.
