# Making other adjustments to HMRC payments

You can create payment runs to pay tax, employee and employer **NI**, and student loan deductions to **HMRC**. The payment runs are created by the **P32** period. Therefore, if you have more than one payroll under a tax reference, all payments due to **HMRC** are created in one run. As part of this process, the **EPS (Employer Payment Summary)** file is created and submitted to **HMRC**. The **EPS** file displays employer payments that are due such as tax, **NI** etc.

Use **Adjustments** to view the details of amounts contained in the payment runs and when you want to adjust the value of payment to **HMRC**, for instance under or over payment of foreign workers.

## **To make the adjustment**

1. Navigate to the **Pay HMRC** window. Go to **Cintra iQ**: Payroll > Payroll Tools > Paying Out > Pay HMRC
2. Select the desired **P32 Period**.
3. Create the **Payment Run**.
4. Click the **Adjustments** button. The **Adjustments** window appears.
5. Enter the amount of the adjustment against the relevant heading.
6. Click the **Save** button. This amends the payment run's amount and displays it in the **Pay HMRC** window.
