These details comprise the summary of all GST/PAYG information relevant to each taxpayer.
The GST/PAYG information is automatically updated with FBT, PAYG Instalment and PAYG Withholding amounts when a Statement is updated to lodged, either manually or from an ELS Validation report.
(AE, Series 6 & 8) A number of master Flexi Reports are available to report on GST/PAYG data. The reports only include returns that have GST/PAYG information attached.
