Input Grid


Column 1

Name and National Insurance Number of each employee. Use a fresh line for each employee.

Where the employee is a Director, enter ‘D’ in the right hand space.

Where you do not know all the names, describe those unknown as best you can, for example, Directors, Lorry Drivers and so on.

Column 2

Amount of payments omitted from a P14 for the year. Use totals for any whose names are unknown.

Use ‘E’ in front of any amount that has been estimated.

Column 3

Amount in column 2 plus any payments already shown on a P14 for the year.

If the entry in Column 2 was ‘E’ the entry here would also be ‘E’.

Column 4

Code at Month 12 determined under Regulation 13 or 19, Emergency code or BR where the district issued no code.

Column 5

Tax you work out from the tax tables on the payments and code entered. You may not often be able to use Function TT.

Normally you will use Month 12 to give a correct result for the year but you may need to estimate how the employer spread the payments over the year if

  • the employee ceased before month 12
or
  • you use a week 1/ month 1 code.

In this event manually revise the column heading to suit the case after printing off the set.

Column 6

Tax already shown on the P14 for the year.

Column 7

This column will automatically complete from the figures in columns 5 and 6.
