STP issues. I have an error telling me to contact the ATO.
ATO no help still waiting five days later.
The fact we have not been able to set up and/or try STP prior to the eofy has not helped.

Hi Tony,

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Software ID. Been there done that trust me I'm at the end of my tether with this.
Watched the webinar and of cause there were no error messages.
Registered the software etc etc.
Followed all the prompts.
Spent hours on the community help.
We have a business to run, some like myself are open seven days a week.
We don't have spare time to sit on hold or scroll through community help pages
We will all have our own different individual issues, no doubt it will be something we have set up incorrectly but we just want help.
Most of us are Mum & Dad small business people we are not computer techs.

Hi Tony,
The only reason the 'Please contact the tax office' message appears is because the Software ID from your GovConnect STP has not been registered with the ATO.
There is no other reason for that message to appear in GovConnect STP.
If you think this is already done, can you advise how you did it? Did you call the ATO or did you go it through the ATO Access Manager?

Tony. I'm not clear on what your remaining problem is. Just reading above, Rav is thinking you haven't registered the Software ID with the ATO. Your comment seems to be that you can't get onto the ATO. Just in case you lack knowing the ID, or have been ringing the wrong ATO phone number, here's the steps inside the GovConnect screen as I know them, if that helps.

Hi Rav.
I followed your earlier post and registered via ATO access manager.
Please see below this is a copy from that site showing the registration as active.
I have since tried to up load and submit the payroll file two more times with the same result
"please contact the ato"

Thanks Gary for the reply.
That is exactly what I did and the registration was confirmed.
I have since gone back just to check my entry and it shows reckon as the registered software provider and that my software ID as active.
I have also uploaded and lodged the payroll twice since doing the registration and I am still receiving the same message. "Please call the ato"

Hi Tony,
Let me clarify, the software ID that you registered for STP services, did you obtain it through the area that Gary highlighted in his post?
Can I confirm, are you using Reckon Accounts Hosted or a desktop edition of Reckon Accounts Business?ℹ️ Stay up to date with important news & announcements for your Reckon software! Click HERE for more info.

Hi Rav.
Firstly thank you for the help.
It has been very frustrating trying to work through this with such a short time frame.
Regarding the ID: I followed your link to ATO access manager, used the abn supplied by Reckon filled in the software ID as indicated. ATO confirmed success.
Regarding the program: I'm using "Reckon Accounts Premier" desktop I believe.
What is "hosted"
Cheers Tony

I obtained the software ID from the reckon portal under my company and advisor window. Tony.0

Thanks Tony,
To be honest, from what you've advised and the steps you've taken, you've done everything right to get this up & running. Hosted is cloud based Reckon product and it contains its own Software ID seperate to STP services, so just wanted to confirm but relevant in this case.
I've just spoken to our STP dev about your case and he's mentioned that the only reason for that message to appear on our end is due to the Software ID. The only other thing I could suggest is to actually contact the ATO and confirm that your ATO Access Manager is setup correct or if its actually accepted the Software ID (even though it says it has) and/or if there is any other reason that they want you to contact them.ℹ️ Stay up to date with important news & announcements for your Reckon software!

Hi Rav.
I may have worked out the issue:
The first time I lodged the json file the software was not registered.
(Didn't know we had to do that)
From then on I was lodging a "replacement" file as I didn't want to lodge the same payroll twice.
What I believe has happened:
Because the original file was not found by the ATO
(Due to the software ID not being registered)
My second and third attempts as "replacement files" had nothing to replace as the first file was never accepted by the ATO.
I have now sent a new file, not a replacement and have received the message
"ATO Status Success"
I hope this is the end of it.
Cheers Tony.
