Accounts that prefill PAYG section of the BAS

The following account numbers need to be used to input figures into sections W1, W2, W3 or W4 on a Business Activity Statement (BAS), in HandiLedger.

W1: Total salary, wage and other payments:

1040, 1160, 1310, 1313, 1314, 1434, 1435, 1560, 1575, 1576, 1625, 1880, 1885, and 1965.

W2: Amount withheld from Salary, wage and other payments:

3394

W3: Amount withheld from investment distributions where no TFN is quoted:

3392

W4: Amount withheld from payments of invoices where no ABN quoted:

3390

Note: The Business Activity Statement for a period will show the balance of the accounts as the end date of the BAS for W2, W3 and W4, as the program assumes that this is the amount payable, as amounts relating to prior period BAS would have been cleared out or paid out already.
