Is it possible that Manager will in the near future have a fully featured payroll system that complies with the Australian Taxation Office, including ‘Single Touch Payroll’?: https://www.ato.gov.au/about-ato/about-us/in-detail/strategic-direction/streamlined-reporting-with-single-touch-payroll/?=redirected

The latest version of Manager supports Single Touch Payroll. The feature is delivered as “Single Touch Payroll Worksheet” report which can be exported to CSV file which can be then imported to www.singletouch.com.au website. You can download the report from: https://www.manager.io/localizations/au

At this point this is an Australia only solution, correct?

Yes, but none of this stuff is hard-coded into the program. So what has been done for Australia can be (and should be) done eventually for all countries.

Love you work, using the desktop version I have edited the employees and updated the software. I get a Liquid error: Index was outside the bounds of the array at the top left and for the from until dates. When exported both employees have the same W1 and W2 totals. Have I missed some detail somewhere? Kate

oops, W1 and W2 should be the same. There are no totals after the phone number column.

Have you had a look at [image] Is Manager ready for single touch payroll 1st July At this moment, STP Worksheet needs to be configured so it has two periods. The first one is for current pay period, the second one is YTD period. Currently STP Worksheet doesn’t check or give any guidance. I’m working on improving usability of the report and basically getting it to work properly. Hopefully by tomorrow should be all sorted out. @Patch I agree - localizations are still cumbersome. It’s a new concept and I have some new ideas about needs to be done to make it easier.

@KateG the report is not doing much error checking yet but make sure to set it so it has two periods: Period 1: Pay period (e.g. 9/07/2019 - 9/07/2019) - single day is fine Period 2: YTD period (e.g. 01/07/2019 - 9/07/2019) The reason for the report to be set this way is because on business level, ATO wants figures for pay period but on employee level, ATO wants figures for YTD.

I’ve been researching various options, most of which say they are free but all seem to then have some charge for the download process, at least. “Clockon” however, appear to provide a fee process for payroll of no more than 5 employees. (Clockon is a payroll app) They have various rates for larger numbers of employees. They use a submitting group called: OZEDI, that must be prepared to provide free ATO submission for small organizations?? So it seems that you (Lubos?) may be able to negotiate a similar deal for Manager??? That would then provide a more direct process for us Manager users?

For payroll its $2 per employee per month Single touch payroll only package 1-5 free, 6-10 $18/m, 11-20 $36/m So similar price to other payroll systems OB secure messaging probably has better pricing (similar micro payroll option) Registering Manager with the ATO to get better pricing from the existing STP setup would probably be better use of time given the marketing value. Edit: @brc Thanks for the find, added Clockon information to the earlier post

Clockon in the T&Cs only allows 27 submissions before it is not free

Thanks @Patch. No I had not found that one.
