Question
How do I notify employees that we have completed our Single Touch Payroll (STP) finalisation event?
Answer
The Single Touch Payroll (STP) module has a Send Notification feature that will notify your employees, letting them know they can access their income statements via the ATO online services. Before you can use this feature, you will need to have processed your finalisation event. To read further information on this feature, refer to the following article.

Your income statement for [Employing Entity Name] for the financial year ending June 30, 2023, is now available.
You can access your income statement via ATO online services through your myGov account. If you do not already have a myGov account, it is easy to create. Click here for instructions on how to do this.
To clarify, an income statement differs from a payment summary. We are no longer required to provide you with a payment summary, as we have been reporting your payroll data for the financial year through Single Touch Payroll (STP).
