Set up of Inland Revenue E-filing (EDI)
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is a way of transferring large amounts of information between two organizations using a dedicated connection or a secure network. EDI is used by the Inland Revenue for filing PAYE forms. Any employer with the necessary communication links installed can use EDI to send and receive their PAYE forms. In practice, however, EDI is most suitable for the largest of employers - those with staff numbers running into the thousands and/or with high levels of staff turnover. For smaller employers, filing over the Internet is likely to be a more cost-effective option.
A list of technical requirements, along with a registration guide for EDI can be found at the link below:
