How to add Employee FBT

If you have employees with FBT then you will need to ensure these records are added prior to finalisation of your STP submissions for each tax year. 

Tip!

You have 2 options. You can add individual FBT instances (Employee FBT) or you can make your life easy and add them as an Employee FBT Summary. These can be added manually via the "Tax Info" tab of the employee record.  NB: When you create Employee FBT instances the Summary will be automatically created or updated by the system.
