ATO + SapphireOne = Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM) to manage your company authorisations.
Your AUSkey will retire in March 2020 and will be replaced with myGovID.
At the end of March 2020 your AUSkey will no longer be valid and will be replaced with your myGovID. Your myGovID can be managed using the ATO’s Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM) – This will allow you to link your myGovID to your ABN and manage who can act on behalf of your business online.
You can already use myGovID and RAM for some participating government online services. This will extend to more government online services that use AUSkey or Manage ABN Connections.
Before you can submit a Single Touch Payroll
event (STP) or submit a Business Activity Statement (BAS) through Standard Business
Reporting (SBR), your AUSkey will need to be replaced by new machine credentials
which are a component of the Machine to Machine (M2M) authentication solution.
Please
click on the link below which explains how to create the machine credentials in
the ATO Relationship Authorisation Manager which includes the steps you
need to complete and details on installing the browser extension. There
are several links to videos which will guide you through the process.
The
machine credential is installed on your computer and facilitates you to
interact with the ATO online services through SapphireOne.
The
Machine credentials are created in the Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM)
and replaces the AUSkey.
You will need to download and install the application plugin (Machine
credential download/browser extension) compatible with your computer’s
operating system:
