# DAC7: How to run a corrections report

## If you need to correct information that has already been successfully submitted to HMRC, you can create a DAC7 corrections report from the DAC7 Reports area.

#### A corrections report should be used where information in a report that has already been submitted to HMRC needs to be corrected.

**Important:** You should only create a correction against a report that has been successfully submitted to HMRC. If your original report was rejected or failed HMRC's validation checks, correct the information and resubmit the report rather than treating it as a correction. HMRC confirms that failed files can be corrected and resubmitted.

1. #### Check the information that needs correcting
   
   Before creating your correction report, update the relevant information in your BMS.
   
   This could include information such as:
   
     - Owner details
     - DAC7 information
     - Payout information
     - Fees or VAT
     - Other information included in the original DAC7 report
   
   Make sure the information is correct before generating the correction.
   
   If you have made changes to information in the **Payouts** area, allow up to 30 minutes for the updated information to become available for report generation.
2. #### Find your DAC7 reports
   
   From the left-hand menu, go to:
   
   **Owners → Owner → DAC7 reports**
   
   Here you can see the DAC7 reports that have been generated, including:
   
     - The date the report was generated
     - The report reference
     - The report type
     - The reporting year
     - The HMRC result
     - Whether the HMRC result has been manually recorded
   
   Use this information to identify the **original report that was successfully submitted to HMRC**.
3. #### Create the corrections trial file
   
   Return to **Owners → Owner → DAC7 reports**.
   
   Select:
   
   **Create DAC7 Trial Excel File**
   
   When prompted, select **Corrections** as the report type.
   
   You will then need to select the **previously submitted report that you want to correct**.
   
   ### Which report should I select?
   
   Select the report that corresponds to the **latest successful submission to HMRC** for the reporting year you are correcting.
   
   This is important because a correction needs to reference the appropriate previously submitted report.
   
   If you have already submitted a correction successfully, any further correction should relate to the **latest successful version**, rather than going back to the original report.
   
   HMRC's reporting rules use references to identify the report being corrected, so keeping track of the latest successfully submitted version is important.
4. #### Review the trial file
   
   Once the trial file has been generated, download and open it.
   
   Use the trial file to check the information that will be included in your correction.
   
   Pay particular attention to the Reportable Sellers information, including the payout information that has been updated since the original submission.
   
   This gives you an opportunity to check the correction before generating the XML file.
5. #### Create the XML corrections file
   
   Once you are happy that the information is correct, return to the **DAC7 reports** area.
   
   Generate the **DAC7 XML file** for the correction.
   
   The XML file is the file that you submit to HMRC.
   
   HMRC requires the XML file to comply with its schema and business rules before it can be accepted.
6. #### Submit the correction to HMRC
   
   Log in to your **HMRC Digital Platform Reporting** account and upload the XML corrections file.
   
   HMRC will check the file against its schema and business rules.
   
   If the file passes the checks, the submission will be accepted. If it fails, HMRC will provide information about the errors so they can be corrected and the file resubmitted.
7. #### Record the HMRC result
   
   Once HMRC has processed your correction, return to:
   
   **Owners → Owner → DAC7 reports**
   
   Find the relevant corrections report and select:
   
   **Record HMRC result**
   
   Record the result returned by HMRC against the report.
   
   This provides a record in your BMS showing which version of your DAC7 report was successfully submitted.
