The women’s team had started the process of legal action but the SFA have reached an agreement to halt an employment tribunal before it could begin.
The Scottish Football Association have agreed to an equal pay and conditions deal across their men’s and women’s national teams.
Delighted Scotland Women’s captain Rachel Corsie said: “I am glad that we have been able to find a resolution, avoiding the need for a tribunal. The legal route is one that nobody wanted to undertake but positive discussions have taken place during the intervening period with mutual respect, understanding and cooperation. As captain, I believe we have a responsibility to push for the highest standards on and off the field.
“The Scottish FA has made significant inroads in this regard and together we are on an evolutionary journey. We are proud to have parity, not just for the current generation but more significantly for future generations of players."
