Payroll: corrected FPS submission

Hello,

 

Please advise where in QB can I send a corrected FPS from, please. The original (and incorrect FPS) has already been submitted to the HMRC but was returned due to an error in NI back calculations. I have been advised by the HMRC to roll a couple of payrolls back to correct the error and enable the current month FPS to go through. I cannot find the Submit to HMRC button any more or where the correction can be sent from.

Many thanks in advance.

Hello Sandy

 

Thanks for joining the Community. 

 

To do this, you would need to rollback the payroll to the period of the amendment. You can rollback (delete) the payroll in QuickBooks Standard Payroll by following the steps below;

 

1. Go to Payroll and select Employees.
2. Select Payroll History and choose the most recent period.
3. On the Payroll details page, click Actions and select Delete Payroll.
4. Type YES in the box, then click Delete.
5. Repeat these steps for any additional pay runs that need deleting.

 

(Please note, QuickBooks will attempt to delete the corresponding journal entries when rolling back, but there may be instances where we're able to, for example if your books are closed. We recommend checking your journal entries to make sure the payments have been removed.)

 

You can then re-run the periods from your payroll dashboard as usual. After re-running the payroll, navigate to the payroll taxes (Taxes > Payroll tax) to submit the FPS - be sure to select option H - 'Correction to earlier submission' on the drop-down. This will overwrite the previous return received for that period and ensures the payroll data is not duplicated.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the prompt answer. We are on Advanced Payroll. I don't seem to be able  to follow your instructions.

Thanks,

Hi Sandy, in this case, please follow the steps listed here to delete the payroll in QBO Advanced Payroll. After re-running each period (from the payroll dashboard), open the payroll and select Pay Run Actions > Mark all as late submission > Select option H on the drop-down > Apply.
