      Enable STP in Wiise Payroll 

      Overview:  

      • Find out how to set up and enable STP in Wiise Payroll 

      Note: Single Touch Payroll (STP) requires employers or their registered agent or intermediary to report payments directly to the Australian Tax Office (ATO). You must report this after the finalisation of every pay run finalised, but by the employee's payment date.  

      You can find information about STP on the ATO’s website. 

       Why enable STP? 

      Enabling electronic lodgment lets you easily submit STP events and employee tax file declarations directly to the ATO online. 

      Note: Once you’ve enabled STP submission on Wiise Payroll, you’ll need to set up your Australian Tax Office (ATO) Access Manager.  

      How to enable STP? 

      1. Select Payroll Settings from your homepage in Wiise Payroll.  
      2. Then, select ATO Settings in Business Settings. The ATO Settings page displays.

      3. Select the Electronic Lodgement & STP tab. 

        Note: The ATO's Cloud Software Authentication and Authorisation (CAA) initiative requires businesses to register their software ID before lodging electronically. This includes submitting STP events, tax file declarations, and payment summaries (for STP-exempt businesses). Enabling electronic lodgement will guide you through the Single Touch Payroll setup. For STP-exempt businesses, this allows electronic lodgement of payment summaries. For others, it replaces payment summaries with electronic payroll data lodgement. 
      4. Select the Enable Electronic Lodgement button.  
      5. The Single Touch Payroll Wizard page displays.
