# Importing other benefit data for P11D purposes

Once you have created your **User Benefit** addition headings, you can import data into these headings where the **P11D** box is **A**, **B**, **C**, **I**, **J**, **K**, **L**, **M** or **N**. ie all benefits apart from **Accommodation**, **Loans**, **Mileage,** and **Vehicles**.

## To import other benefit data

1. First create a spreadsheet of data with a column for **Employment ID**, **Taxable Benefit Amount**, and a **Made Good** column if any need recording.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** If the P11D form shows a Made Good box, then include this in your file, even if all of the values are zero. (There must be three columns only.)
2. Save this spreadsheet in a **.csv** format.
3. Navigate to the **Import Other Expenses and Benefits** form. Go to **Cintra iQ**: Expenses & Benefits > Import of Expenses and Benefits > Other Expenses
4. Select the tax year you are dealing with (eg select 2019 for tax year ending 05/04/2019).
5. Select the **User Benefit Heading** you are importing into.
6. Select the **Over write existing benefit data** option if you want to throw away any existing data held against employees for this heading.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** If this data is just to be added to already existing data, leave this option unchecked.
7. Click the **Next** button. You are asked to select your import file.
8. Use the browser to find your file.
  - Once you have selected your file, you are asked how many header lines there are (ie rows not to be imported) and on which line you want headers displayed from.
  - You are now be presented with the **Expenses and Benefits Import** mapping window.
9. Map each relevant column on the left to a field on the right.
10. Click the **Next** button. You are presented with the contents of your file, and any validation errors.
11. Click the **Import** button to import your data.
