PAYE14085 - coding: coding functions: function CH


COP Function CH (Coding History) shows details of code changes and freehand notes for a particular year. It can be used to help you

  • Deal with enquiries or complaints
  • Decide if the cumulative code basis can be restored
  • Reconcile the result of a calculation or informal adjustments

Code type DUP

Where Function CD is used to issue a duplicate P2, CH will show the type as DUP and the date the duplicate form P2 was issued.

The issue of a duplicate P6 will not create a coding record.

Viewing a freehand note

Where for any issued code a freehand note was included, a NOTE field will appear in Format 1.

To view a freehand note, enter ‘Y’ in the NOTE field.

You cannot enter Y

  • In more than one NOTE field

Or

  • If Y is shown in the CONTINUE field

To return to Format 1

  • Enter ‘Y’ in RETURN FORMAT 1? Field

Otherwise

  • Leave blank

Deletion strategy

For years CY-2 to CY-6, only the last code for the year will remain on the record where

  • The year is cleared

And

  • The APPEAL signal is not set

Where this is a NOTOP code, the last code issued to the employer will also remain on the record.
