Retrospective Payroll for HMRC EPS

Hi, 

I'm a Director and only employee of a Ltd company using Quickbooks Online.

In January 2023 I started using the standard edition of QBO Payroll and have run the Payroll for December 2022, January 2023 and February 2023. All three runs were sucessful and posted FPS to HMRC - all good so far.

When logged into my HMRC account I noticed that I had "arrears" due to estimated payroll data had been used for the previous 3 months as that is when I registered as an employer with them. As no Salary had been taken prior to December 2022,  I contacted HMRC, who advised that I submit an EPS for the period September 2022 through to November 2022.

How do I do this with Payroll online standard edition? I've tried changed changing the date payroll started but the option is "greyed out"

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello AndyA60, Thanks for posting on the Community page, If you had no pay for them periods in September/ November you just need to run a nil payroll and submit the EPS but in order to do this you will need to roll back/delete the payrolls all the way back to September to do that then roll then all forward again/ run the payrolls again to where they need to be so say up to march.
