InstantReceipts lets you generate a readable Excel summary of your TPAR (Taxable Payments Annual Report) data - contractor payments for the financial year. Like the PDF version, this is a summary for your own review, not the lodgment-ready file the ATO accepts.

Prerequisites

  • You have recorded contractor payments in the system
  • You have access to the Reports page

Outcome

  • A readable summary of contractor payments for the financial year, in an editable spreadsheet

Steps

1

Navigate to Reports

Go to your dashboard, click Reports in the main navigation, then click the Tax & Compliance tab.

Navigate to Reports
2

Select TPAR

Select "TPAR" as your report type.

Select TPAR
3

Select the Financial Year

Choose the financial year to report on - typically Last Financial Year, since TPAR is lodged after year end.

Select the Financial Year
4

Click Excel

Click the Excel button to generate a readable summary of contractor payments for the selected period.

5

Download Your TPAR Summary

Once ready, download the Excel file from the Generated Reports section.

6

Preview Your TPAR Excel Report

Once downloaded, open the spreadsheet to review the summarised contractor payments for the selected financial year. Remember this Excel file is a human-readable summary for your own records only - when you're ready to actually lodge with the ATO, use the separate "Export .TPAR" button to generate the fixed-width lodgment file instead.

Troubleshooting

Please select a date range error

Pick Last Financial Year, This Financial Year, or a custom date range before generating.

I need to actually lodge with the ATO, not just a summary

This Excel file is a human-readable summary only. Use the separate "Export .TPAR" button on the same tab to get the fixed-width lodgment file the ATO accepts.
