Once you've finished all payroll processing in the current tax year, before you move into the new tax year, you need to submit an FPS for each PAYE reference you process payroll for.
📌Note: If you process multiple payrolls under the same PAYE reference, you need to decide which one to process last. Process payroll and submit the FPS as normal for all other payrolls, then, once you process the last payroll, flag this one as the final FPS.
To submit your final FPS, watch the video or follow the steps below.
Take a backup of your database.
When the prompt, Will this be your final submission? appears, click Yes.
🤓Tip: Once the final FPS has been submitted and you have completed your final paid period, you will need to period-end before moving on to the next step.
