A few more things Verifying Periods and Dates Edit and Import State FTP Storage State Website Access

Verifying Periods and Dates What Shows in Master Inquiry

Edit and Import is Essential You don’t have to import all the files as the state sends them? You can edit and delete specific records.

LGC created maintenance forms for the Import processes to assist with correcting information in files received from the State.

After running the BL IN process, files are loaded from the State server to your server. We then run the correct import option for the type of file: SBN####CCYYMMDD.txt – New Business files OR a return file of a new business you added that contains the State Tax Account number and will be updated to your system. LBE####CCYYMMDD.txt – Error files that contain error code(s) that kept a new business from being opened at the State. The error must be corrected and the new business resubmitted to the State. SBC###CCYYMMDD.txt – Change files that can contain any type of information change or business closing information. SBT####CCYYMMDD.txt – Tax Clearance files contain clearance that a business has paid a tax at the State.

After running the BL IN process, files are loaded from the State server to your server. We then run the correct import option for the type of file:

When running the New Business/St Acct Import option, enter the SITUS number and the Date of the file. That date comes from the report generated during the BL IN process. Remember the format of the filename is SBN####CCYYMMDD

You will be prompted to print or display the Edit report. Print this. This report will show you any possible issues, such as missing information, Local Number exists, duplicate State tax account number, etc. Use this information to help you know what your next step will be.

Immediately after the report, you are given 3 options: 1) Import the file exactly as it is. Records that cannot import will not. All others will import even if data is missing. 2) Edit & Import. This will allow you to maintain the information in each record. You must go through all of the businesses in the file to correctly edit it and import. 3) No Import. This will not import anything and leave the file intact at is it. Escaping will do the same as No Import.

Edit & Import option – this is new and still being developed. When this is selected, all of the information from the file is loaded into a screen that you can maintain. The purpose is to allow you to see the information and edit or add to it as necessary. You have access to all fields except the State Tax Account Number and the Situs number. 1 st Part Business information

NEW UPDATE COMING SOON You will be able F2 to find the business number

Edit & Import option –The purpose is to allow you to see the information and edit or add to it as necessary. You have access to all fields except the State Tax Account Number and the Situs number. 2 nd Part Owner information

Edit & Import option – You can delete the record from the file to be imported using the Delete button. This allows you to remove a business that might already exist or you have other reasons not to import it. Then you can still import other business record(s) that were in the same file.

Edit & Import option – To save this record (if changes were made or even if there were no changes made) and move to the next record in the file or if the last record to Import, use the Page Down button.

Edit & Import option – If this is the last record you will be prompted to IMPORT FILE?

Edit & Import option – If you choose to Import the file, for a New Business, it will add the new business to your records at this time. If you choose NO to Import, you will then be given the option to Revert to Original. Yes will dismiss any changes you made and put the Original file from the State back in your IN folder for you to start the Import process over with. If you choose No to revert, this will save your changes and leave that updated file in the IN folder for you to go through the Import process again.

State FTP Storage We’ve been told that the state would be clearing out files on the FTP site which are older than 60 days.

Do you need access to the state website for clearance website? The contact is Jane Lacy (615) You will need to fill out and sign disclosure forms and then Jane will forward their information to their IT department to generate login credentials.

This concludes our presentation for today Questions? Bye Bye!
