Create a New TCS297F File

Last Updated February 17, 2003

 

Before creating a new TCS297F transactions file, determine whether or not the existing file is still needed. If it is, transfer the currently existing file to another location to prevent the data in that file from being overwritten when the new file is created.

  1. Log on to the ACT system using the usual operator ID and password.
  2. Click F8 or Next Keys two times to rotate the navigation keys to the point where Misc Menus displays in the navigation button row
  3. Click F7 or the Misc Menus navigation button. The Miscellaneous Services Menu will appear.
  4. Type any character in the column to the right of Build Finance Remittance File.
  5. Press theEnterkey located on the right of the number keypad. The General Ledger Remittance File Builder screen will appear.
  6. Type the date range for the file. If the file is for one day, the Begin Date and the End Date will be the same. If the file is for a month, the Begin Date is the first day of the month and the End Date is the last day of the month.
  7. Press the Enterkey located on the right of the number keypad. The Printer Selection Menu screen will appear.

Note: ACT recommends that the monthly date range include all days of the month, not just the first working day through the last working day. An entire month range picks up any transactions that may have been processed on an "off" day.

  1. In the PRIORITY column, enter 07 in the first line. This step will save the report to a file instead of printing it to a printer.
  2. Press the Enter key to the right of the number keypad.
  3. Click F7 or the Exit System navigation key to exit the ACT Tax System.
