One Plus One Solutions Pty Limited is happy to announce that the easyFBT 2025 forms update (version 2025.1.0.6 or later) is now available for download. This release includes the final 2025 ATO Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) Return form, which you can print as a paper form for manual submission to the ATO or submit electronically using the Electronic Lodgement (SBR) Interaction Manager.

easyFBT login authentication system

The ATO requires any software that connects to the Standard Business Reporting (SBR) system must provide a comprehensive login system to help protect users sensitive tax data. Each time you start easyFBT you are required to login to the application.

IMPORTANT

• The easyFBT software login is separate to your easyFBT website login (if you have one).

• Shared user logins must NOT be used. Each person logging into easyFBT must have a unique user login and only use that to access easyFBT.

If you haven't already created a software login for easyFBT (for either the current year or a prior year) then please read the following easyFBT login authentication system blog post for further information and step-by-step instructions.

How to update your existing easyFBT 2025 software

Every easyFBT installer includes the full software release for that product year. If you’ve already installed an earlier version of easyFBT 2025, simply download the latest installer file from the easyFBT 2025 folder on the Downloads page. Then, run it on all computers where easyFBT 2025 is installed.

Notes

• The installation won’t affect your existing 2025 entities or any user’s personal settings.

• Even so, we recommend backing up your entities before starting any easyFBT software installation, just to be safe.

SBR Machine Credential Requirement

To lodge your FBT Return form electronically, you’ll need a valid machine credential for each ABN you’re submitting.

Setting Up a Machine Credential

If you don’t already have a valid machine credential, the ATO’s guide below explains how to install one:

How to view the Files & Folders list on the Downloads page where it is not shown.

Depending on the configuration of your browser, the Files & Folders area on the Downloads page on our website may not display correctly and provide access to our files. In such cases, you may need to enable JavaScript in your browser settings.

The following outlines the steps required to enable JavaScript for either the Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome browsers. Once you have completed the changes, refresh the Downloads page to display the Files & Folders list.

Note: If you lack permission to modify your browser settings, you will need assistance from your IT department.

Microsoft Edge

If you are using the Microsoft Edge browser and receive the follow Widget Didn’t Load error:

then open to the JavaScript settings page (edge://settings/content/javascript) and either enable the Allowed (recommended) option or add https://www.easyfbt.com.au:443 to the Allowed to use Javascript section to enable the page widget.

Google Chrome

If you are using the Google Chrome browser and the Files & Folders list is not show, open to the JavaScript settings page (chrome://settings/content/javascript) and either set the Default behavior option as < > Sites can use JavaScript or add https://www.easyfbt.com.au:443 to the Allowed to use Javascript section to enable the page widget.

Still not working or you are not allowed to use JavaScript?

If you are unable to access our software and support files for any reason via the Downloads area, contact our support and we can arrange an alternative location to download easyFBT.

Fix for Login Authentication Page Display Issue

Our authentication provider, Auth0, recently made changes to the HTML of the login authentication pages, affecting the compatibility of the web browser component we use for easyFBT.

Note: This issue does not affect users logging in with a Microsoft Account.

As shown below, this issue prevents users from fully seeing their email address and password entries on the login, sign-up, and reset password screens. While it does not impact the functionality of the login process, we do not want users to struggle with this each time they start easyFBT.

Starting with the easyFBT 2025.1.0.3 release, we have provided a fix for this issue. If you're affected, you can download and install the fix now.

Prior releases

This issue also affects previous releases of easyFBT dating back to 2022 so we have also provided updates for these products.

The fix is now available for the following releases:

• easyFBT 2022.1.0.10 or better

• easyFBT 2023.1.0.5 or better

• easyFBT 2024.1.0.9 or better

If you require any further assistance, please contact our support team.
