4 1 SCHEMA OVERVIEW From the middle of June (date to be confirmed) the P2C schema for 2013 and onwards will be updated to include an amount for Local Property Tax (LPT). This LPT amount will be a mandatory field. This document is based on the CSV File Format Specification - Tax Years 2012 onwards with the only changes being the addition of LPT. The 2012 schema will remain unchanged. Page 4 of 21

5 2 ELEMENTS For each record type (Header, Employee and Footer) a row describing the column headings will be output. The column headings row will precede the record(s) being output. Only one column headings row per record type per file will be output. 2.1 Notes on Formatting Textual data Textual data (indicated by Type Text) outputted to the P2C CSV file will be surrounded by double quotation marks,"" and can include commas. For example the text "THE OLD HOUSE, NEW ROAD" is interpreted as a single textual value Cent values When viewing an exported P2C file using a spreadsheet package, cent values with trailing zeros may appear truncated. For example the values and may be displayed as 100 and respectively when viewing the CSV file through a spreadsheet package New lines Carriage Return/Line Feed (CRLF) is used to denote a new line. 2.2 Header Records Header records represent employer details. Only a single employer record is found in each exported file. The format of header records can be seen in table 2 below. Table 2 Header records Name Column Name Type Size Description / Validation Tax Year HC_TAX_YEAR Numeric 4 The Tax Year the record applies to. YYYY e.g Employer HC_EMPLOYER_NUMB Text 9 e.g B Number ER Employer Name HC_EMPLOYER_NAME Text 40 Name of employer Date HC_DATE Numeric 6 Date of export to CSV. Format DDMMYY Label Year HC_LABEL_YEAR Numeric 4 The Tax Year the record applies to. YYYY e.g Employer Unit Number HC_EMPLOYER_UNIT_ NUM Numeric 3 Zeros for 2004 onwards 2.3 Employee Records Employee records represent all the employee tax credit details of a given employer. Multiple employee records can be found in each exported file. The format of employee records is detailed in Table 3 below. The field labelled size denotes the maximum number of characters of the data returned. Page 5 of 21

6 The number of Tax and USC Rates may increase or decrease subject to legislation. As such fields may be enabled or disabled. Enabled fields are outputted with non-blank values across all employee records. '0' is considered a non-blank value. Disabled fields are left blank. Based on the 2011 number off USC rates, the behaviour will be as follows: Three USC Rates: If three USC rates are in effect for a year, as per 2011, then the USC fields from USC Exempt up to and including USC Rate 3 are enabled and will contain non-blank values. Fields beyond USC Rate 3 will have blank output. The behaviour will be as follows if there is change to the number of rates: Five USC Rates: If five USC rates are in effect for a year then all USC fields are enabled (from USC Exempt up to and including USC Rate 5 ) and will contain nonblank values. Four USC Rates: If four USC rates are in effect for a year then the USC fields from USC Exempt up to and including USC Rate 4 are enabled and will contain non-blank values. Fields beyond USC Rate 4 will have blank output. Two USC Rates: If two USC rates are in effect for a year then the USC fields from USC Exempt up to and including USC Rate 2 are enabled and will contain non-blank values. Fields beyond USC Rate 2 will have blank output. One USC Rate: If there is one USC rate in effect for a year then the USC fields from USC Exempt up to and including USC Rate 1 are enabled and will contain non-blank values. Fields beyond USC Rate 1 will have blank output. No USC Rates: Finally, in the unlikely scenario of USC being abolished, zero USC rates are enabled and none of the USC related fields would be enabled (this includes the omission of all fields from USC Exempt down as found in the list below). Note: The highest rate applicable to an individual employee will be the last non-zero USC rate in the employee record. Taking 4 USC rates as an example, if USC Rate 2 is the last outputted non-zero rate for a record then any enabled fields after USC Rate 2 will contain 0, (fields beyond USC Rate 4 will have blank output). The format of employee records can be seen in table 3 below. Detailed example records showing how these rules are applied can be found in Section 3.

12 3 SAMPLE P2C FILE CSV format samples of various employee records are displayed below. These illustrate a variety of scenarios that payrolls are likely to encounter. Each employee record illustrates a particular scenario. USC rates and cut-off s illustrated are based on 2011 regulations. The records can be divided into two groups: Normal Records: 3 USC rates (2%, 4% and 7%) apply Medical and Over 70 Records: 2 USC rates (2% and 4%) apply Two samples of each record are illustrated, one generated from a Revenue system configured to always output 4 USC Rates, the other generated from a Revenue system configured to always output 3 USC Rates. The Appendix contains the complete contents of both files. 3.1 Normal Cases: 3 USC rates (2%, 4% and 7%) apply PAYE Exempt, USC Cut-Off Point 1 and USC Cut-Off Point 2: PPSN P This record represents an employee with a PAYE Exemption marker but who is not exempt for USC. USC Rates 1, 2, and 3 (2%, 4% and 7%) apply with 2 USC Cut-Off s, USC Cut-Off Point 1 and USC Cut-Off Point 2. No LPT should be deducted for the employee.
