Run the P45 Process from the Submit Requests window to print and archive, or just archive specified P45's. You can optionally perform EDI validation at this point. For a P45 to be produced, the employee must have had a payroll action, otherwise the process will fail.

   To run the P45 Process:

1. Select the process name from the Name field.

2. Enter the Start, Effective and End dates for the processing period, in the Parameters window.

3. Select for whom you are running the report, by entering either the Payroll name or the Employer's PAYE reference. If you enter the Payroll name, the Employer's PAYE reference is displayed automatically.

4. Select the style of stationery you want to print with.

5. Select Yes if you want to perform EDI validation, otherwise select No.

   Note: You can perform validation for EDI. If you intend to send the document by EDI at a later date, then it is still advisable to perform the validation now. Submitting the report at this point allows the system to flag up any error, letting you rectify problems before sending data to HMRC.

6. Select Yes if you want to defer printing the P45, otherwise select No. If you defer, you can reprint at a later date by running the P45 Report. Archiving occurs automatically once you submit the information.

7. Choose the Submit button.

8. Choose the Refresh Data button to update the report processing.

9. Choose the View Details button to see a summary of the information submitted.

10. Choose the View Log button to check error messages.
