Setting Income Types for STP2
STP2 requires an Income Type Code to determine if an employee is categorised as:- Salary and Wages
- Working Holiday Maker
- Seasonal Worker Programme
- Closely Held Employee
To handle this change, the Tax Scales screen in the Add/Modify Employee section has some new options: 
- Selecting ‘Shearer’, ‘Horticulture Seasonal’, ‘Actor’, and ‘None of the Above’ will result in the Income Type being set to Salary and Wages (SAW).
- Selecting ‘Closely Held Employees’ will result in the Income Type being set to Closely Held Payees (CHP).
- Selecting ‘Seasonal Worker Programme’ will result in the Income Type being set to Seasonal Worker Programme (SWP). This means they will be taxed at a flat rate of 15%.
- Selecting ‘Working Holiday Maker’ will result in the Income Type being set to Working Holiday Makers (WHM).
