Run the Taxable Payments Annual Report (TPAR)
The Taxable payments annual report (TPAR) gathers information about payments that you made to contractors and subcontractors over the course of the fiscal year. Only payments made to suppliers who have TPAR enabled in their Supplier information record are included.
Run this report when you prepare to lodge your TPAR with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). Use the information in the report to file your paper form, or give the report to your tax professional.
Before you begin
Before generating the TPAR, make sure that the Supplier record for applicable contractors has all the data needed.
- You provided the supplier Australian business number (ABN) in the Tax ID field, or a default value if the supplier did not provide one.
- You provided a TPAR name in the Additional information tab, if the supplier business name differs from the Print as name.
- If you withheld taxes, you used the TPAR tab to record the amount withheld.
- You recorded whether or not you received a statement by a supplier, on the TPAR tab.

The following amounts are not included the Gross amount paid:
Example of how advance payments affect Gross amount paid
Let's say you pay an advance payment to a supplier in June, at the end of the 2023 fiscal year. Then, you apply that advance to a payment in August, at the beginning of the 2024 fiscal year. When you run the TPAR for FY23, you'll see that the advance payment is included in the Gross amount paid to the supplier. When you run the TPAR for FY24, the advance amount is not included in the Gross amount paid, because no cash was involved in the application of the credit. Example of how voided payments affect Gross amount paid
Say you make a payment to a supplier in June, at the end of the 2023 fiscal year. Then, in August, you void the payment you made. When you run the TPAR for FY23, you'll see that the Gross amount paid still includes the payment in the total for that supplier. That's because this value reflects the total amount paid during the date range that you selected. When you run the TPAR for FY24, the voided payment is subtracted from the FY24 Gross amount paid. |
