We are moving our employees to a new company (restructure). I know how to transfer their information using export lists to IIF files, but I'm interested to know what I need to do regarding STP - ie, do I run the STP for the last payrun of the existing company as a 'finalise year' event?

    Hi Brooke,

    Is the ABN for the new company staying the same as the current/existing one or is that changing as well?

    Ok cool thanks Brooke.

    In that case, yes you'll need to finalise the existing company first when you're ready to do so.

    Once that is done, you will need to create a brand new STP entity in the GovConnect service for the new ABN and register the new Software ID that this new STP entity has with the ATO. You can create this new STP entity in the existing Portal account you have currently or if that is not suitable to your situation, you can create a separate account under a different email address.
