End of financial year is approaching, and a few areas are worth checking before 30 June. Superannuation contributions need to reach the fund, not just be paid, if you want the deduction this financial year. The Small Business Superannuation Clearing House also closes for good on 30 June, so anyone still using it needs a new arrangement in place. Add WorkCover declarations, payroll tax, and Single Touch Payroll finalisation to the list, and it is a lot to track at once.

We have put it all in one place, including a quick reference table.

If this affects your business, speak with your accountant before making decisions.

If your business uses the ATO Small Business Superannuation Clearing House, there is something you need to act on before 30 June.

The clearing house closes permanently on 30 June 2026, which means the final quarterly super payment for April to June cannot be processed through it. That payment is still due on 28 July, but you will need a different way to make it.

The article covers what to do before the end of the financial year, including the Q4 deadline, Payday Super from 1 July, and what happens if payments are late.

If your business has tax, superannuation, payroll, supplier payments, unpaid invoices, stock or planned asset purchases before 30 June, cash flow should be reviewed before year-end decisions are made.

End-of-financial-year (EOFY) planning is not just about deductions. A deduction can change taxable income, but it does not remove the need to manage cash, timing and upcoming commitments.

This article covers what business owners should review before 30 June, including:
• cash on hand
• unpaid invoices
• stock and work in progress
• superannuation
• Australian Taxation Office (ATO) debt
• asset purchases
• the July to September cash flow forecast

Before making year-end decisions, speak with your accountant.

If your company employs staff, unpaid or late superannuation can create risk for directors personally. Read the article here: https://factor1.com.au/articles/payday-super-and-director-risk-why-payment-timing-matters/

In 2023-24, the Australian Taxation Office issued 8,710 Director Penalty Notices relating to unpaid Superannuation Guarantee Charge, involving 6,500 companies.

Payday Super does not create director liability from scratch. But from 1 July 2026, superannuation will need to be paid much closer to each payday, making payroll timing, cash flow and payment processes more important.

Now is the time for directors and business owners to check whether their payroll and superannuation processes are ready.
