Allowances issue – Sending a Replacement
In order for
a replacement to be submitted you will need to redo all the employees pays that
were included in the final pay run, along with ensuring nothing for the new
financial year has been submitted. A replacement will ensure the original
lodgement itself is fully replaced with the new, corrected figures. If you have
submitted a lodgement through STP after your End of Financial Year Lodgement, you
will need to do an update.
