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.
For full details of what's included in the ERR submission file, check our user guide.
There may be times when you need to generate a file for a previous period. To do this, follow the steps below.
📌Note: You should only do this for periods where you haven't already generated an ERR file, or where Revenue didn't accept the file.
Click Manage Payroll then highlight the relevant pay group.
Click Outputs then click ROS.
Click Enhanced Reporting Requirements.
Click Pay Group Parameters.
For the relevant pay group, turn on the Previous periods toggle.
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 Normal Submission.
From the Pay Group drop-down menu, select the relevant group.
Select the period you need to generate a file for.
If required, in the Override payment date field, enter the relevant payment date.
Click OK.
Once you generate the file, 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.
📌Note: We strongly recommend you correct any errors before you transfer the file to Revenue.
