You can access this information in the Five Good Friends app under the "Earnings" tab. In here you'll find: * A tool to generate a summary of earnings for a specified date range * A history of your statements (the statement total is the amount you'll receive in your bank account) that you can reconcile with your banking transaction history every fortnight. Tapping into these statements will reveal a breakdown of the amount you've invoiced Members and deductions (e.g. our platform fee).  ![](https://cdn.kustomerhostedcontent.com/media/62bdb8727045aa066fa5e91e/5ed51241e52ffd83c49ad7c2eb436b72.jpg) We recommend you reconcile your statement summary total against the amount paid into your nominated bank account fortnightly. This is published after 2pm on Mondays each fortnight. ## Total earnings for a period of time You may want to know my earnings for the financial year, or for a quarter, or from X month to Y month? You can generate a summary of earnings report from the 5GF app. You can specify a date range to generate a report for ( e.g. the financial year -- which is really useful at tax time). To do this you need to: 1. Open the 5GF app 2. Navigate to your Earnings tab 3. At the top of the screen you'll see a section labelled "Generate summary of earnings" 4. Select the dates you'd like to generate a report for then select the button labelled "\*\*Generate\*\*" 5. Your report will be generated as a PDF, which you can download or share via email or whichever app you'd like.  6. The report details: **![](https://cdn.kustomerhostedcontent.com/media/62bdb8727045aa066fa5e91e/e7ea7ac9599ca81d51da694e1e2ce5fe.jpg)Sales** - This is the amount you've invoiced our Members for your services. This amount is inclusive of GST if you are GST registered. **GST on your sales** - If you are GST registered, this mean you charge GST when invoicing our Members. This is a percentage of the sales amount. If you aren’t GST registered the column will be empty. **Purchases** - These are the expenses you’ve paid to provide your services on the Five Good Friends platform. We charge a platform fee to be a Helper with Five Good Friends that covers administration overheads, marketing and training. You may have additional purchases or deductions you can claim for running your business at tax time - please talk to an accountant or tax officer for advice. **GST on purchases** - We charge GST as part of our platform fee, so you can see that reflected here. It is a percentage of the purchases amount. This information directly corresponds with the information you need to fill out when filing your Business Activity Statements (BAS) or your taxes for the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), we hope this makes it easier for you!  ## Can you send me a payslip? Payslips are for employees only and detail a worker's entitlements, superannuation and the income tax withheld from their pay. However, as a Helper, you are more than likely an independent contractor and not an employee of Five Good Friends. As an independent contractor, you are responsible for running your own business. This means it is your responsibility to keep track of your earnings and statements, pay your super, and manage your taxes. We keep track of your earnings and statements and you can access all of this information in the 5GF app under the "earnings" tab. We recommend you reconcile your statement summary total against the amount paid into your nominated bank account on a fortnightly basis. Statements are published in the app every fortnight after 2pm on Mondays. ## I no longer work as a Helper with Five Good Friends and need to access my earnings and statements? If you are no longer a Helper with Five Good Friends, you will still have access to the Earnings tab and the Earnings Report. (Your access to other parts of the App will have been revoked and you will see a message saying "Feature disabled for these sections).
