# How do I produce P11D submissions for whole pay schemes?

You can produce a **P11D** submission form for a whole pay scheme and either generate a draft version of the **P11D**, place the **P11D** submission into the **FBI Outbox** to send to **HMRC**, and/or create the **P11D** form as **PDF** file to be viewed in a location of your choice.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** Only the P11Ds generated for Whole PAYE Schemes will be placed into the FBI Outbox for submission. You cannot send a draft version to FBI.
