How do i export a full payment submission from quickbooks desktop payroll to quickbooks payroll standard, can someone advise me

Hello kay14,

 

Please follow the steps below to export the FPS file and import this into Online.

 

  •  Ensure you are logged in as Admin User and QuickBooks is in single-user mode. To switch between modes, go to the QuickBooks File menu, then select Switch to Single-user Mode/Switch to Multi-user Mode
  • From the File menu select Utilities, then Export and finally Payroll Data
  • The next step informs you there will be no access to the payroll centre after April 19 2020. Confirm you have read the notice and then select Begin payroll data export.
  • Next, create a password to protect your data. You will be asked for this password when unzipping/accessing the unzipped folder(s) once downloaded
  • Next, choose the desired destination folder for your data and select OK. The export will begin.
  • NOTE: The download can take in excess of 20 minutes. If you cancel the data download no data will be downloaded
  • Exported Successfully will be displayed when the download has completed. There will also be a link to the destination folder you selected
  • When in the folder the data has been saved in it can then be extracted from the password protected zipfile
  • Once extracted you should see the folling folders within the main folder, name beginning UKDataDump-
    • EPS_FPS_EYU
    • PAPDISReport
    • Payslips (payslip can be opended with XYZ)
    • Reports
    • StatutoryPaymentsReport 

You can then import the FPS file following our online guide linked here. Get back to us below if you have any questions on this!
