    We are customers and haven't received anything to date from Reckon re STP.  We would appreciate if you could send any updates to rooms@skellner.com.au

    Thank you

    We are using Reckon Accounts Plus 2017 - what do we need to do to prepare for STP?

    Good stuff Sybil,
    Functionality for STP compliance is coming with the tax update next month. We'll be getting in touch with everyone on that via email and right here on Community as well. Stay tuned.

    Thanks :)

     I noticed when we did the 2018 update there is also on the website a MyGov download which seems to be available.  Is it recommended that we also do this now?

    Hi Rav

    AGHHH!!! Just went to register for Webinar and realised I have a Doctor appointment at 3pm on Monday and it is one I cant miss as it is prep for surgery.  Will there be another webinar I could attend?  Really want to get on top of this and hoping you might be able to time another webinar for those like me that cant attend this one.  Many thanks for your ongoing support.  Cheers  Pamela

    No worries, what I'll do is post a recorded copy of the webinar in the other thread so you can watch it when you have some time.
    This is just the first in the series of webinars we'll be holding for STP in the next few weeks :)

    I don't need to do STP till next year and I don't really want to start right now would like to start when I have more time to deal with it but my question is can I get the tax updates without the STP?

    Hi Narelle,
    The Reckon Accounts Business & Hosted update carries both the new tax tables and Single Touch Payroll (STP) functionality. 
    If you if you have 19 or less employees, STP will be mandatory from 1 July 2019 (subject to legislation passing), however you can start reporting with STP any time before this date.

    STP functionality can be disabled in Payroll & Employee settings (only to be used for those with 19 or less employees)

    There's more info in our FAQ's here -
    Single Touch Payroll (STP) Webinar FAQ's

    Also, check out our recorded webinar for Single Touch Payroll and Reckon Accounts Business.

    (Webinar for Single Touch Payroll & Reckon Accounts Hosted next week)
