Transferring P32 data from Employer CD-ROM 2007 to Employer CD-ROM 2008

You must manually enter the amount of deductions made from subcontractors during the year at box 23 on the Employer Annual Return form P35. We recommend that you use the figures from your monthly Contractor Returns. You can use the figures from the P32 but we are aware that if you entered subcontractor deductions on the P32 on the 2007 CD-ROM these deductions did not flow to the P32 on the 2008 CD-ROM. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused, but this has been fixed for the updated CD-ROM. If you have already sent your Return you do not need to make an amendment if you entered the wrong figure at box 23.
