Generating the XML File for the Monthly Return

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software generates only the XML for the submission request XML message type. The system does not populate any optional fields for the submission request XML file.

Before you submit live data in an XML file, you should submit test transmissions to the HMRC to verify that the structure of your document is correct. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software enables you to set processing options to indicate whether a submission is a test or is live data.

The system writes the XML file to the Text Processor Header (F007101) table and Text Processor Detail Table (F007111). You use the Text File Processor (P007101) program to copy the XML to a location from which you can review and submit the XML file.

Note: The HMRC publishes several documents to assist you in understanding submission requirements, such as Transaction Engine Document Submission Protocol Instructions for Gaining Internet Recognition, and Hints and Tips on GovTalkHeader and IRheader – CIS. You should be familiar with the contents of these and related documents before you submit XML files for monthly CIS reporting.
