You need to submit an ERR return to Revenue in every payroll run where you make any relevant payments, regardless of what system you use to make the payment, on or before the date the employees are paid.

Generate the file

Before you can transfer the file to Revenue, you need to generate it in PeopleXD Payroll. To do this, follow the steps below.

  1. Click Manage Payroll then click Outputs.

  2. Click ROS then click Enhanced Reporting Requirements.

  3. Click ERR Files Process.

  4. From the Select ERR action drop-down menu, select Generate submission file.

  5. From the Submission type drop-down menu, select Normal Submission.

  6. From the Pay Group drop-down menu, select the relevant group.

  7. If you only need the file for one employee, select the relevant employee.

  8. If required, in the Override payment date field, enter a payment date.

  9. Click OK.

If there are any exceptions, the ERR Submission Exception Report appears. If this happens, we recommend you:

  • Review the errors in the report.

  • Resolve the errors in PeopleXD Payroll.

  • Generate a new ERR submission file.

  • Repeat these steps until there are no exceptions.

Once you've generated the file and corrected any errors, you need to transfer it to Revenue.
