8 Plus to XR backup

I am trying to set-up my XR from my last iCloud backup of the 8+, but unfortunately, the iOS 12.3.2 is not compatible with the 8+. How can I get around this as my 8+ will also not backup to my iTunes/computer?

iPhone XR, iOS 12

Can't use backup from icloud on new phone because IOS 12.3.2 is not available My previous phone is an 8 plus, updated to 12.3.2 My new phone is an Xr, which can only update to 12.3.1. From some quick research is seems 12.3.2 is only for the 8 plus so I can't see it for the Xr. I don't have any previous icloud updates, I only created one now for the purpose of transfering to my new phone. My new phone cannot use the old update because the IOS are different. Any suggestions on how to work around this, or dial back my 8 plus to 12.3.2, or get my Xr to 12.3.1? Thanks
