I had the same problem when I started and I didn’t do anything but Reckon must have after my message because the next thing it worked

Rav

Hi Glenda,
Can I grab the ABN you're trying to register in GovConnect please and I'll take a look.

Cheers

Glenda Hannah

HI Rav

The ABN is 75286350255.

thank you

Rav

Thanks Glenda,
I've had a look and I can see this ABN was registered to GovConnect last week. Its under an email address different to the one that this Reckon Community account is under.

There's two things to check here; the first is if the ABN you've listed above is correct and secondly, if it is correct then to login to the Reckon Portal with the correct email address that was used when it was first registered.
We've found that usually there has been someone else in the business that has registered the ABN to get a headstart on STP.

Either way, let me know how you get on.

Glenda Hannah

Thanks, ABN is correct. I need the original email of ttwlau@yahoo.com.au revoked if possible as I cannot log in with those details

Vicki Williams-Haynes

Hi Rav, are you please able to help me too. My ABN is 83 160 684 838. Thanks so much. Vicki

Rav

Hi Vicki,
I've cleared off the error affecting the registration of your ABN. Head back into GovConnect and add your ABN and it will go through fine.

Danny Chan

Hi Rav,

I have the exact problem. I have previously registered ABN 49615780227 ( GARY FUNG) under email address dchan@marketaust.com. Now when I try to register the same ABN in Reckon One under the email address achan@marketaust.com. it comes up with the same error message.

Can you help revoking the ABN registration under the first email address?

Thanks.

Rav

Hi Gary,
There are a couple of things I need to go over here.
I can see that the ABN 49615780227 has been registered already with Branch number 2 and there have been more than a few submissions already sent for it.
What are the circumstances around this? Do you have a branch number 2 in reality for your ABN? If not, why have submissions been sent for it?

joseph_10271921

please help me too. ABN: 50801385845. thank you.

Rav

You should be ok now Joseph. Go ahead & register your ABN in GovConnect again and it should go through this time around.

Maurice_9723435

Hi Rav, please help mine as well

77135736293

It said that ABN has already been registered.

Rav

Hi Maurice,
I've cleared the error that was affecting the registration of your ABN however I notice that there is a separate registration of it under branch number 2.
Do you have this branch number in reality? If not, then I'd strongly recommend that you do NOT use it for submissions or it will lead to further headaches down the line.

There haven't been any submissions sent yet so do you want me to delete this registration as well?

Maurice_9723435

Hi Rav,

Yes please delete the branch number 2

Rav

Branch 2 has been deleted now for you as well.

Maurice_9723435

Peter_10324841

Hi Rav, I am having the same issue too.

Could you please look have a look into my ABN 21 983 371 288.

I couldn't seem to connect branch 001 but have added branches 002-005 which I now want to delete.

Gina McDermott

Hi Rav,

I have the same issue.

My ABN is 22 092 106 520.

Branch number is 001.

thanks

Gina

Rav

Hi Gina,
This should be sorted for you now. Try registering it again in GovConnect now.

Gina McDermott

Thanks Rav, all good.

Kylie Gibson

I am having the same problem - Every step of the way has been a headache! ABN is 25146335293

Rav

Kylie,
There's no error associated with this ABN like the others in this thread.
For this ABN, it was already registered into GovConnect back in July 2019. You just need to ensure you're logging in with the same account that was used when it was first created ie. email address & password.

There haven't been any submissions sent so I can delete it if you want so you can register it into whichever account you are logged into currently. Let me know.

Kylie Gibson

Yes, Please delete everything relating to this ABN and i will re-register

Kylie Gibson

I have called and spoken to someone, they said they would fix the problem, I also requested via this support page to remove all logins under that ABN, and NOTHING has been done. This is infuriating!!!

bridgette

Hi Rav, can you help me too please? My ABN is 70 969 154 383. I was previously using your STP app but now want to go directly from Recon accounts desktop (I have registered it with ATO so are unable to go back to the STP app now. It is coming up with the same error. Thanks so much. Bridgette.

Rav

Hi Bridgette,
I've had a look at your ABN and there aren't any errors showing for it like some of the others in this post.
Instead, it shows that its been registered correctly in the GovConnect service roughly 3 weeks ago. The email address for the account its under is the same email address for your STP app account, please ensure you login to the Reckon Portal HERE with the same login credentials and you'll see the STP entity in GovConnect.

bridgette

I went back in using same details (but your link) - first and it worked! thankyou Rav!

Alyssa

I have the same issue as i have already mistakenly registered into the wrong product:

Sorry, that ABN has already been registered. If you have one, please try a different GST branch.

Can I please get some help?

ABN: 71097131229

Thank you in advance.

Rav

Hi @Alyssa

Just checking if you still need help with this one?

I've had a look at your ABN in our system and it shows that it was setup in GovConnect yesterday. Which product were you looking to register the ABN into/under?

Alyssa

Hi Rav

Yes, please help. I only need the Payroll for STP under the email: alyssaleong5@gmail.com

I opened the wrong account and now deactivate it under lintradinginvestm@gmail.com

Yes, wrongly set up for Govconnect yesterday. Please delete this.

Thank you for your help.

Rav

Right ok, thanks for confirming @Alyssa. Since there were no submissions sent, I've deleted the ABN registration from the current account its under.

You can now register the ABN into the new account. Let me know if you have any trouble with it.

Alyssa

Thanks Rav.

It's working now!
