Processing an Empdupe file without an ABN in Payroll Premier

Legacy KB ID: 4635

Question

Why doesn’t the ATO accept my Empdupe file – it says that I need to quote an ABN number?  I don’t have an ABN number.

Answer

If you do not have an ABN number, then you cannot create an EmpDupe file and you cannot lodge your PAYG Withholding Annual Report electronically. 

Although Payroll Premier has the ability to hold a WPN (Withholding Payer Number) separately to the ABN, an EmpDupe file will not be created without an ABN.

 

Workaround

Please refer to the ATO or your Accountant for alternative methods of submitting your PAYG Withholding Annual Report.
