CC Business Returns Transaction View (BRTVU) is a Command Code used by IDRS users to gain read-only access to the tax return data submitted by business tax payers that are on the BRTF VSAM files. The BRTF files store data for posted business forms 11C, 706, 706GS, 709, 990, 941, 990EZ, 1120's, 8038's, 1041's, 730, 940, 940EZ, 943, 944, 945, 1042, 1065, 1066, 1139, 2290, 3520, 4720, 5227, 5330, 8038's, 8288, 8328, 8804, etc.
The Input screen for Command Code BRTVU is displayed inSee Exhibit 2.3.57-1.
BRTVU summary screens display associated returns/schedules/forms submitted by a specific filer.
The command definer on the screen allows users to view the forms and schedules associated with the tax return. If there is more than one page in a form, there will be more than one command definer associated with the form. The command definers are found on the summary screen.
Command code BRTVU allows the user to directly access a page by using the command definer code. The user can enter the TIN, MFT, tax period and definer code to directly access the page that the user wants to query.
BRTVU is a research command code. The data cannot be adjusted or changed.
