1  ATO Requirements

You may be required to lodge a Taxable payments annual report by 28 August each year if you are a:

  • Business in the building and construction industry;
  • Government entity;
  • May extend to Couriers and Cleaners

The Taxable payments annual report (TPAR) reports to the ATO about payments you have made to contractors for providing services. Some government entities also need to report the grants they have paid and payments they make to certain other entities.

Contractors can include subcontractors, consultants and independent contractors.

They can be operating as sole traders (individuals), companies, partnerships or trusts.

How to track reportable payments in XERO

Xero has a support page which we present also here. Xero lets you identify payments to contractors that you need to include in the report. The report:

  • Includes paid bills and spend money transactions (including overpayments and prepayments) from all accounts;
  • Excludes credit notes and payments made in other currencies;
  • Only includes organisations or contacts with Australian addresses.

You can filter out individual payments after you've run the report. If you've withheld tax because no ABN has been quoted you can either:

  • Enter this manually on the paper report; or
  • Continue to report it in your Activity Statements.

First you set up a Contact Group, then set up Rules, then Export the Report –

1  Create contact group

Create a contact group for contacts you are needing to include in the Taxable Payments Annual Report, then add each contact to this group.

You can create more than one contact group if your Taxable Payments Annual Report is likely to produce more than 2500 invoice lines. Make sure your contacts belong to only one of the contact groups you've created.

If you don't create a contact group, the rules you set up to run the report will find all contacts you've paid.

2  Set up or edit rules for contractors and reportable payments

The report identifies contacts you've made taxable payments to, based on the rule.

1.     In the Reports menu, select All Reports.
