Video Information
This video details how to validate recipient information for basic formatting errors.
Transcript:
Hello and welcome to this video which details validating recipients within the E-File Magic Software Application. This video assumes that you've created a company or filer within the E-File Magic Software and you have added recipients to that company or file by either importing those recipients or creating them manually in the Manage Recipients Screen. Once your recipient data is in the E-File Magic Software Application, it's necessary to validate those recipients for basic formatting errors. Please note, that this process does not validate the information to ensure its correctness or accuracy, it simply validates the information to ensure that will pass, the formatting checks, by the IRS specifications. When you're ready, navigate to the validate recipient screen and click on validate recipients. At the top of the validate recipients screen you will indicate the number of recipients that are pending validation this may or may not be all of the recipients within that company that you have created, it may be only a subset of those recipients if for instance you've gone through the validation process before and you are currently fixing outstanding recipients that have issues. When you're ready click on validate recipient data the system will indicate to you that this process may take awhile, although typically this is a very fast process. When you're ready, click yes as you can see this system reports any issues that it found with the data that you have entered into the application in this case I can see from looking at the validation error section of the screen that a number of recipients have poor zip codes or incorrect state codes. These will need to be fixed before I can transmit these recipients. To load these recipients into the system, simply double-click on the recipient and then select yes when prompted, this will take you to the managed recipient screen and load all the recipients that failed validation. You can then go one by one and correct these recipients for any errors that were displayed on the prior page. This concludes the validate recipients video.
