edited July 2023 in Accounts Hosted

I have been using the Premium Payroll App to report STP and I am now wanting to process payroll on Reckon Hosted. I am unable to connect to Reckon GovConnect. States ABN has already been registered.ย What do I need to do to get this to rectified?

    Hi @springbaywild

    Just need to ask a couple of questions to get this started.

    Are you already setup with Reckon Accounts Hosted? ie. you've got your company file setup etc?

    Secondly, are there any outstanding pay run balances in your Payroll App account that need to be finalised (or zeroed out) or have you already taken care of that? (This is important).

    Hi Rav

    Yes I am already set up for Hosted, have been using for a long time, just not the payroll section. I have completed the EOY in the Payroll App.

    Thanks for confirming @springbaywild

    Ok in that case, what you need to do is login to GovConnect here - https://portal.reckon.com/ using the same email address and password that you use for your Payroll App account (since that's the account your ABN has been registered under).

    Once you've signed in you'll see the STP entity there which you can use for your STP submissions that you create in Reckon Accounts Hosted.

    All you need to do is add the Reckon Accounts Hosted product selection in your STP entity and upload your STP file to that. I'll add a screen recording as an example which will show you how to add a product selection in your STP entity.

    Just in case you need it, I'll add a help guide HERE that has more info on how to send STP submissions via GovConnect.


    Note: If you were using the Reckon Payroll App then you'll likely already have Reckon One added as a product selection in your STP entity like I do in my screen recording. This is because the Reckon Payroll App uses the same infrastructure as Reckon One.


    Hope that helps but let me know if you have any questions.
