Many businesses use software packages to help manage their operations. Some software packages exchange data with us seamlessly via ATO developed application programming interfaces (APIs). For example, APIs allow users to submit business activity statement (BAS) and Single Touch Payroll (STP) information directly to us.
We support DSPs by offering a wide range of digital wholesale servicesExternal Link through Standard Business Reporting (SBR). DSPs may provide a wide range of capabilities within their software, such as:
- accounting
- tax agent practice management
- bookkeeping
- payroll
- STP sending service providers
- superannuation gateways
- SMSF management.
DSPs must meet a set of security requirements before they can use our digital wholesale services. This ensures their systems have adequate security measures in place to protect the confidentially of taxpayer information and integrity of ATO systems.
