Enables you to create the Employer Payment Summary (EPS) extract for a selected statutory unit. The EPS is used by HMRC to calculate employer liability and accumulates monthly totals on a year-to-date (YTD) basis. The EPS should be produced monthly throughout the year. You can validate the employer data first without creating the extract if required.

A final submission is produced in the last tax period of the year and when the PAYE scheme ends. A PAYE scheme is deemed ended when the corresponding statutory unit has an obsolete date. The final submission also contains the final submission declarations.

Note: You must correct any errors identified by the file verification process before creating the EPS extract.
