How to share your book
Step 1: Check your data and settings
Use our step-by-step guide to confirm your data migrated correctly from Reckon Accounts and ensure everything is set up for a smooth start in Reckon One Payroll.
Step 2: Set default ledger accounts
This step ensures that every payroll transaction is recorded against a ledger account in your balance sheet and profit and loss.
Do it for the sake of accurate records (and a happy accountant!).
Step 3: Set up default bank accounts for payroll payments
Set default bank accounts for different types of employee and super payments, so payments come out of the correct bank accounts.
Step 4: Choose a default super fund
Make sure super is paid on time for any employee who hasn’t chosen their own fund yet. It’s a quick step that helps you stay compliant and avoid delays or headaches down the track. It’s also needed if you want your employees to self-onboard via our free app, Reckon Mate.
Does your bookkeeper or accountant lodge STP for you?
If you have a bookkeeper or accountant that lodges your single touch payroll (STP), you’ll need to set them up to do this in Reckon One.
