Did you have to provide payslips?

I included them, but I'm not sure if they made any difference.

I included everything that I thought might be helpful, from the start and was not asked to provide more information.

I included payslips, simply as another way to confirm my employment with the company (that I happen to own).

Income is not a factor, but proof of employment is.

What financial evidence did you provide?

Just put mine in with a NAB 'proof of balance' statement generated the day of application. No transaction history but shows the available balance. Hopefully should be all good

to cut to the chase, I think you'll be fine.

Sweet! Yeah it'll be basically the same thing as yours so looks like they don't care too much about seeing transaction history, more that just you've got the funds available

I did similar with CBA, but they issue an up-to-date statement. Actually, I did it a couple of times, due to my impatience and/or anxiety. As a result, my final statement only had 2 days of transaction history (nothing!). I uploaded it as it was and it was accepted with no issue.
