Other Employer level information sent in an STP Event

When an STP Payroll Event (Submit or Update) is generated, there are other values in the Employer level node that are calculated/generated by Synergetic based on the type of the event and what it being submitted.

Payroll

STP Event FieldMandatory?Notes
Pay/Update DateYes

When sending a pay (PAYROLL submit event) this is the Payment Available Date

When sending an update (PAYROLL update event) this is the generation day if it is being generated within the same financial year. If it is for a prior financial year it will be 30 June of that financial year.

Payee Record CountYesNumber of Employee records sent in this transaction. Must be at least 1. Synergetic will calculate this when the STP event is generated.
Run Date/Time StampYesTimestamp of when the STP submission was generated.
Submission IDYes

Unique identifier to identify the submission

Must be unique across the BMS/ABN/Branch number

Synergetic will automatically generate a submission ID when the user chooses to generate an STP Event.

Full File Replacement IndicatorYes

Indicator to identify whether the submission contains original or amended data.

Except in exceptional circumstances this will be set to false as the ATO STP service will only accept an amendment for the last pay submitted.

(true = the submission has amended data, false = the submission does not contain amended data)

Synergetic will generate this value. It cannot be manually changed
