An Employer Payment Summary (EPS) and Full Payment Submission (FPS) are functions unique to UK payroll. The EPS is used to report specific adjustments and information to HMRC (the UK tax authority), while the FPS is used to submit employee payment details to HMRC – similar to the PSR in Ireland.

In Ireland, payroll submissions are made to Revenue (the Irish tax authority) using the Payroll Submission Request (PSR), not an FPS.

You submit payroll information to Revenue through the PSR, which is done directly from within the BrightPay software after finalising your payroll for each pay period.
