Firstly in Step 1, Go to PF/ESI Reports under Statutory Reports option in the Reports Menu.

Step 2: In the displayed window, select the FY and click on e-Return

Step 3: Now you can see the group details update window. Here, select the PF Group and click on Edit. Now, the extended window shown, select the applicable PF Office and click on Transfer. Then the PF office details are transferred to the main screen. Enter the Establishment code with Extension number (if any) and click on Save. On saving the details, click on ECR to continue.
