If you've amended the pay date for an employee, after you've already submitted the ERR file to Revenue, you need to generate a Full Resubmission File.
Note: The Full Resubmission File only includes any amendments you've made since Revenue accepted your normal ERR file for that period. If you haven't already submitted a normal file, instead of following the steps below you need to submit a normal file either for the current period or the relevant previous period.
Current period
To generate a Full Resubmission file for the current period, follow the steps below.
Click Manage Payroll then highlight the relevant pay group.
Click Outputs then click ROS.
Click Enhanced Reporting Requirements then click ERR Files Process.
From the Select ERR action drop-down menu, select Generate submission file.
From the Submission type drop-down menu, select Full Resubmission.
From the Pay Group drop-down menu, select the relevant group.
Enter the override payment or cheque date then click OK.
Once you've done this, if the following error message appears, this is either because you haven't submitted a normal file for this period or Revenue rejected your normal file.
'You cannot generate a file for this pay group and periods as the last file sent got no response from Revenue - Please run a Check ERR Run'
To check whether you've submitted a normal file for this period, and if so check the status of the file, follow the steps below.
Click Manage Payroll then highlight the relevant pay group.
Click Outputs then click ROS.
Click Enhanced Reporting Requirements then click ERR Files Process.
From the Select ERR action drop-down menu, select Transfer submission file.
If there's no normal submission for this period, you need to generate a normal submission file. If you have submitted a normal file, however, the Status column shows Rejected, contact Revenue or check your ROS account to see why they rejected the file.
Previous period
To generate a Full Resubmission file for a previous period, follow the steps below.
Click Manage Payroll then highlight the relevant pay group.
Click Outputs then click ROS.
Click Enhanced Reporting Requirements.
Click Pay Group Parameters then turn on the Previous periods toggle for the relevant group.
Click Save then click ERR Files Process.
From the Select ERR action drop-down menu, select Generate submission file.
From the Submission type drop-down menu, select Full Resubmission.
From the Pay Group drop-down menu, select the relevant group.
Select the relevant employee then enter the override payment or cheque date.
Click OK.
