-
Since January 2008, all Deposit Tickets (DT) and Deposit Vouchers (DV) must be assigned a 20-digit Trace ID Number, which is used as a tracking mechanism to identify each DT with its corresponding payments and each DV with its corresponding debits. These numbers are a tool developed by the Custodial Detail Data Base (CDDB) as a means of addressing a material weakness discovered in the Service’s custodial accounting systems by the Government Accountability Office (GAO). Trace ID numbers will permit systemic reconciliation of pre-posted to posted payments and pre-posted and posted payments to deposit records.
-
The CDDB, an enhancement arm to the Financial Management Information System (FMIS), was created to track all individual payments that comprise a deposit ticket. The CDDB also balances the individual transactions against the deposit ticket totals which were entered into the Interim Revenue Accounting Control System (IRACS) general ledger. The unique Trace ID Number allows all payments to be identified and added to the CDDB.
-
All input payment systems (i.e., Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS), Lockbox) automatically assign a 20-digit Trace ID number to each deposit ticket.
-
For Manual Deposit Tickets, The Trace ID Number is assigned by the Batch, Blocking, and Transmittal System (BBTS). The first 14 digits are the Trace ID Number (for the Deposit Ticket or Debit Voucher) and the last six digits are the Transaction Sequence Number(s) for the individual payment(s) comprising the Deposit Ticket. The Transaction Sequence Number begins with "000001" , and is sequentially assigned to payments within a Deposit Ticket.
-
Although most Trace ID numbers are assigned through BBTS, it is possible that some remittance documents will contain handwritten numbers assigned on various remittance documents submitted for processing by some functions handling smaller volumes of manually processed forms.
Note:
Code and Edit is not responsible for assigning, editing, or perfecting Trace ID numbers.
-
The format for a Trace ID Number that is to be included in all Deposit Tickets (14 digits) and on all payment transaction records (20 digits) is provided in the following table.
Parts Characters Position Definition Site ID NN (Numeric) 1 - 2 Campus file location code (FLC) or other Site ID System ID NN 3 - 4 The values are identified as follows:

Transaction Sequence Number NNNNNN or zero 15 - 20 For each payment summarized in a Debit Voucher, beginning with "000001" , sequentially increases the Transaction Sequence Number. Note:
NOTE: This field is relevant only for the individual payment transactions that comprise a Deposit Ticket (as identified by the first 14 characters of the Trace ID Number). See Field 01TSN instructions in IRM 3.12.10.3.28.2, below.
-
For correction purposes, two (2) Trace ID fields each are provided for the Revenue Receipts program and the Form 1040-C/Form 1040-ES program:
-
Field 01TID (Trace ID)--- The first 14-digits represent the Trace ID number for the Deposit Ticket (DT) or Debit Voucher (DV); and,
-
Field 01TSN (Transaction Sequence Number) The last six positions of the 20-digit Trace ID represent a unique 6-digit transaction sequence number for each individual payment contained within its DT/DV.
Caution:
Do not confuse this sequence number with the DLN sequence number or the individual (payment) sequence numbers on the Deposit Ticket or Debit Voucher.
-
-
Procedures for new Error Code 153 (for Revenue Receipts) and Error Code 166 (Form 1040-C/Form 1040-ES) are also provided in this text for researching and correcting Trace ID information.
-
This is a 14-position numeric field that may be present. The first fourteen (14) digits (of the 20-digit number) are the Trace ID number for the Deposit Ticket (DT) or Debit Voucher (DV).
-
Field 01TID must contain no alpha characters, periods, or special characters.
-
Correction Instructions:
-
Compare the document with Field 01TID.
-
Correct any transcription errors.
Note:
See IRM 3.12.10.3.28:(6), above, for the valid ranges for each segment of the Trace ID number.
-
If this field is blank, perform research through RTR, using the Document Locator Number (DLN) of the Deposit Ticket (DT) or Debit Voucher (DV).
-
If research provides multiple options, enter more information from the DT/DV to narrow the selection (i.e., deposit date, transaction date, transaction code, money amount, tax period, MFT, Block DLN, TIN, DLN etc.).
-
Enter the Trace ID number shown on the screen for that DT or DV in Field 01TID.
-
-
If a Trace ID cannot be obtained through research, zero fill Field 01TID.
Caution:
The Generalized Mainline Framework (GMF) will set this field to "Error" (in Priority 3 validation only) if it is not numeric.
-
For additional instructions regarding the use of the RTR and/or research for Trace ID information, consult IRM 3.5.10.7.1, "Research Screens," in IRM 3.5.10, Accounts Services---Remittance Transaction Research (RTR) System.
-
Field 01TSN must contain no alpha characters, periods, or special characters
-
Correction Instructions:
-
Compare the document with Field 01TSN.
-
Correct any transcription errors.
-
If Field 01TSN is blank, perform research through RTR.
-
Enter the Document Locator Number (DLN) of the Deposit Ticket (DT) or Debit Voucher (DV). Add more information as required to perform the research (i.e., deposit date, transaction date, transaction code, money amount, tax period, MFT, Block DLN, TIN, Routing Number, name control, etc.).
-
Enter the sequence number (which corresponds to the sequence number on the DT/DV for that payment) on the RTR screen.
Exception:
Unless there are multiple payments on the DT/DV, this step may not be necessary.
-
Enter the payment Transaction Sequence Number shown on the RTR screen into Field 01TSN.
-
-
If a Transaction Sequence Number cannot be obtained through research for the Deposit Ticket/Debit Voucher (and related payment(s)), it is possible that a Trace ID number was not assigned. Zero fill both fields (Field 01TID and Field 01TSN).
Reminder:
If the Deposit Ticket or Debit Voucher was assigned a Trace ID number, a unique Transaction Sequence Number(s) for every individual payment(s) will be included within that DT/DV.
Reminder:
The Generalized Mainline Framework (GMF) will set Fields 01TID and 01TSN to "Error" (Priority 3 validation only) if they are not numeric.

-
-
Check ENMOD for a pending (EP, PN, or CU) TC 000 or TC 013. If found and it matches the entity on the document, enter a "C" in the Clear Field.
-
If research shows the account is present at Master File with no name change, enter a "C" in the Clear Code Field.
-
If the account is on the invalid segment (TIN with an *) with the same name, enter "C" in the Clear Code Field.
-
If the transcribed TIN and the Name Control match SSA records and there is no account present at Master File, input TC 000 to establish the account on the valid segment. Then enter "C" in the Clear Code Field.
-
If the transcribed TIN and Name Control do not match SSA records and there is no account on the valid or invalid segment, input TC 000 to establish the account on the invalid segment. Then enter "C" in the Clear Code Field.
-
If the transcribed TIN and Name Control do not match SSA records and there is an account on the invalid segment for a different taxpayer, SSPND 320 for a temporary TIN.

Note:
Leave a note of the corrected TIN on the RTR system.
-
If a change is made to the TIN which caused the document to be numbered incorrectly (e.g. taxpayer used an EIN and should have used an SSN), SSPND 611 for renumbering.
-
On internally prepared documents:
-
When a TIN entered on an internally prepared document belongs to another taxpayer, the Transaction Code is 670, and there is no obvious transposition or transferring error, compare the addresses.
If ... Then ... The addresses are the same: 1. Research using CC NAMES/NAMEE for a different TIN.
2. For both TIN's, research CCs TXMOD/IMFOL/BMFOL/EMFOL for a Master File module balance.
3. See also IRM 3.12.10.2.1.A module balance is found for the same, or larger, amount: post the payment to that account. Correcting the TIN or bringing up the Name Control Underprint, whichever is appropriate. Note:
Leave a note of the corrected TIN on the RTR system. When Entity assigns the temporary TIN, they will leave a note on the Remittance Transaction Research (RTR) system.
A module balance is not found, SSPND 352. Both accounts have a module balance, SSPND 352. The address is different, SSPND 352. -
When a TIN entered on an internally prepared document belongs to another taxpayer, the Transaction Code is other than 670, and there is no obvious transposition or transferring error, SSPND 360.
-
Do not input a TC 000 on INTERNALLY prepared documents, SSPND 320.

When Entity assigns the temporary TIN, they will leave a note on the Remittance Transaction Research (RTR) system.
-
The taxpayer has changed his/her name (e.g., the name on the document is different from the Master File but it is determined to be the same taxpayer), check ENMOD for a pending TC 013 (EP, PN, or CU 013).
If a TC 013... Then ... is pending, enter a "C" in the Clear Code Field. is not pending, and correct information cannot be located, SSPND 320. -
If a change is made to the TIN which will cause the document to be numbered incorrectly, (e.g., taxpayer used an EIN and should have used an SSN), SSPND 611 for renumbering.
-
If a different EIN cannot be found, SSPND 320.
Note:
Before SSPND 320, check to see whether the address on the check or voucher matches the address on INOLET. If the address is the same, enter the underprint.

If none of the above apply, search for a new TIN using NAMEE/NAMEB (BMF) or NAMES/NAMEI (IMF).
-
If a new TIN is located, research INOLE for account and then research, using BMFOLT/IMFOLT for payment history.
-
If correct TIN cannot be determined, SSPND 320 to Entity.
-
If a change is made to the TIN which caused the document to be numbered incorrectly (e.g., taxpayer used an EIN and should have used an SSN), SSPND 611 for renumbering.

Note:
When inputting a TC 013, follow local procedures to prevent unpostables. Leave a working trail by notating "TC 013." A TC 013 should not be held up for Quality Review at the end of a cycle.
Exception:
In cases involving prior-year payments, if it is determined that the taxpayer is using one of his/her previous SSA name controls (because it was the name used at the time the original payment was owed), and you are sure it is the correct taxpayer (i.e., address, supporting documentation, etc.), bring up the underprint.
-
-
The taxpayer on the valid segment has changed his/her name, the SSA Name Control does not match the Name Control on the document, and there is no account on the invalid segment. Input TC 000 to the invalid segment. After TC 000 is input, enter "C" in the Clear Code Field.
-
If the Name Control in Field 01NC and the Name Control on the document are the same, but differs from the Name Control Underprint, research, using either of the following command codes:
-

If IDRS is not available, SSPND 351.
-
The taxpayer on the valid segment changed his/her name, the SSA Name Control does not match the Name Control on the document, and there is an account for a different taxpayer with the same TIN on the invalid segment, SSPND 320 for a temporary TIN. This is done because the Master File cannot contain more than one account with the same TIN.
Note:
Before SSPND 320, check to see whether the address on the check or voucher matches the address on INOLET. If the address is the same, enter the underprint. For Forms 4868, See IRM 3.12.10.3.3(4)c and d.
-
The taxpayer on the valid segment is not the taxpayer on the document, and there is no account on the invalid segment.

-
-
If the Name Control in Field 01NC and the Name Control on the document are the same, but differs from the Name Control Underprint, research, using either of the following command codes:
-
INOLE for direct access to the National Accounts Profile (NAP) for On-Line Entity (OLE) information.
Note:
Use CC INOLE with either of the following definers when researching the correct Name Control/TIN match: INOLE(S) for BMF entity; INOLE(T) for IMF entity; or INOLE(G) for IMF and BMF in cases where the type of entity cannot be determined from the TIN.
-
ENMOD to access Master File to provide name, address, and other entity information through input of the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN).
-
BMFOLT/IMFOLT to access Master File for a record of payments (if similar amounts posted, accept).
-
-
If research shows the account is present at Master File with no significant name change, enter "C" in the Clear Code Field.
-
If the taxpayer has used an abbreviation of his/her name, enter the Master File Name Control in Field 01NC.
-
If there is a different TIN, including a X-Ref TIN, verify the TIN to ensure that the entity information on the document is the same as on Master File. If the information is the same, overlay Field 01TIN with the correct information. Leave a note of the corrected TIN on the RTR system.
Note:
When Entity assigns the temporary TIN, they will leave a note on the Remittance Transaction Research (RTR) system.
-
If none of the above apply, search for a new TIN using NAMEE/NAMEB.
-
If a new TIN is located, research INOLE for account and then research, using BMFOLT/IMFOLT for payment history.
-
If correct TIN cannot be determined, SSPND 320 to Entity.
-
If research shows a different EIN, enter the new EIN in Field 01TIN. If a different EIN cannot be found, SSPND 320. Leave a note of the corrected TIN on the RTR system.
