Program Scope and Objectives

  1. PURPOSE/PROGRAM OBJECTIVES: This IRM provides campus Error Resolution and Rejects personnel procedures for correcting paper registers with Credit and Account Transfer transaction record errors identified in campus operations. These records contain payment transaction data (such as for Jeopardy, Prompt and Quick assessments, account adjustments and reactivation of retention register accounts).

    • Credit and Account Transfers are payment transaction documents and forms prepared by campus Accounting and or Accounts Management employees based on information received from Examination field personnel.

    • After Accounting and or Accounts Management receives this transaction information from Examination, they prepare payment transaction forms referred to as Credit and Account Transfers documents (see Paragraph (2) below)

    • Integrated Submissions and Remittance Processing (ISRP) transcription operators perform data entry of these records.

    • The Generalized Mainline Framework (GMF) computer runs receive these transcribed records from ISRP and sends them through a series of consistency and validity checks to establish data integrity and validity.

    • Records passing GMF validation post to the correct taxpayer Master File accounts (such as, Individual Master File (IMF), the Business Master File (BMF), and or the Individual Retirement Account (IRAF).

    • Error Resolution (Function 270) receives transaction records failing the GMF validity runs and performs research and correction to perfect these records for re-entry through ISRP and the GMF.

      Note:

      ERS and Rejects examiners are the campus personnel performing the research and correction on these records.

    • Documents which are not fully correctable by ERS/Rejects examiners) are returned to the originators for research, perfection and or revision before returning them to ERS for resolution.

    • ERS and Rejects send the corrected records through ISRP for data input and through GMF validation until the records pass GMF validity checks and post this information to the appropriate Master File account.

  2. Submission Processing (SP) campus Accounting Function personnel prepare the following forms used for processing Credit and Account Transfers:

    • Form 3413, Transcription List (Account Transfer-In)

    • Form 3552, Prompt Assessment Billing Assembly

  3. AUDIENCE: Wage and Investment (W and I) Submission Processing (SP) employees. This IRM is created for Error Resolution and Rejects personnel as follows:

    • ERROR RESOLUTION:

    • Supervisory Tax Examining Technician oversees correction of the Error Resolution System (ERS) program and reports to the Campus Chief of Input Corrections.

    • Lead Tax Examining Technicians review and approve subordinate employees’ work and report to the Supervisory Tax Examining Technician.

    • Tax Examining Technicians are campus tax examiners manning program Function 270 (Error Resolution) who correct payment records and report to the Lead Tax Examining Technician.

    • REJECTS:

    • Supervisory Tax Examining Technicians manage the Rejects department and report to the Campus Chief of Input Corrections.

    • Lead Tax Examining Technicians manage, review and approve subordinate employees work and report to the Supervisory Tax Examining Technician.

    • Tax Examining Technicians are campus examiners manning the Rejects program function and report to the Lead Tax Examining Technician.

  4. POLICY OWNER: The Director, Submission Processing, Wage and Investment Division, oversees and monitors all Submission Processing (SP) Headquarters and campus functions and operations processing Wage and Investment (W&I) income (and related) documents. This includes the production and operations of those internal organizations described in Paragraph (5) below.

  5. PROGRAM OWNERS: The following Submission Processing organizations share administrative and procedural responsibility for the Credit and Account Transfers program:

    • Accounting and Tax Payments Branch oversees related Headquarters personnel and campus Accounting and Data Control personnel preparing the Form 3413 and Form 3552.

    • Paper Processing Branch oversees related Headquarters personnel and campus Integrated Submissions and Remittance Processing (ISRP), Error Resolution System (ERS) and Rejects personnel who provide payment record transcription input and corrections, respectively.

  6. Primary Stakeholders: are Headquarters areas impacted by these procedures and or those that may influence the project, impacting a change in workflow, other duties, change in established time frames, and similar issues. They are as follows:

    • Small Business/Self-Employed (SBSE), Large Business and International (LB&I); Chief Financial Officer (CFO); Custodial Detail Database (CDDB), Statistics of Income (SOI); Tax Exempt/Government Entities (TE/GE); Compliance

Background

  1. Error Resolution System (ERS) functions resolve validity errors, field errors, consistency errors, and math errors in returns and other documents for posting to the Master File. Records fall out in ERS due to the Generalized Mainline Framework (GMF). The entries from Integrated Submissions and Remittance Processing (ISRP) transcription records are transferred to ERS fields.

  2. The GMF programming causes records to fall out to the Error Resolution paper registers if they fail to meet certain criteria, including (but NOT limited to):

    • Invalid characters in a field (such as, numeric instead of alpha characters)

    • Invalid length of field (such as, EIN (or SSN) with 8 digits instead of 9)

    • Invalid codes in field (such as, AC 009)

    • Consistency errors - Any valid field used in any computation where the result is inconsistent with (or contradictory to) any other valid field

    • Math errors - computer does math computation and it differs from the taxpayer’s amount

    • Invalid tax periods and eligibility for certain credits

  3. Process Flow After Accounting Prepares Form 3413 and Form 3552:

    • The ISRP system operators transcribe this information

    • The transcribed records are validated through the GMF programming runs

    • Campus ERS examiners correct records failing GMF validation on printed paper error registers.

    • ISRP transcribers and GMF validation runs re-input corrected records.

    • Validated records post to the correct Master Files.

  4. The following Submission Processing (SP) campuses process Credit and Account Transfers:

    • Austin (AUSPC) processes domestic and international Individual Master File (IMF) documents.

    • Kansas City (KCSPC) processes IMF documents.

    • Ogden (OSPC) processes domestic and international Business Master File (BMF) documents.

    • All Non-Master File (NMF) are processed in the Kansas City Submission Processing Campus (KCSPC).

      Note:

      As of September 30, 2021, the Fresno Submission Processing Center (FSPC) no longer processes these documents.

  5. Program Goals: The program goals are to process cases correctly in a timely manner.

Types of Error Conditions

  1. The types of error conditions you will encounter include validity, terminus, extraneous section, and missing section. This section will provide descriptions of and resolution instructions for each condition.

Validity Errors
  1. Validity errors are identified either because a field, which must have data, is blank, or because the computer identified invalid characters within that field. Fields are validity checked to ensure correct data before transmittal to the master file. Each field that is found invalid is identified on the register with an asterisk (*) before the alpha-field designator.

  2. Correct as follows:

    1. Compare the data on the register with the document being processed.

    2. Correct any transcription errors.

    3. If no corrections are necessary, use Action Code 7.

Terminus Errors
  1. A terminus error results when there is a non-numeric character in a numeric field, or when the format of the section is incorrect.

  2. Terminus errors are identified by two asterisks (**) to the left of the section number. (See Figure 3.12.21-6.)

    Figure 3.12.21-6

    This is an Image: 33670006.gif

    Please click here for the text description of the image.

  3. Correct as follows:

    1. Compare the data on the register with the document being processed.

    2. Correct any transcription errors.

    3. If no corrections are necessary, use Action Code 7.

Extraneous Sections
  1. Extraneous sections are identified by a single pound (#) sign in front of the section. (See Figure 3.12.21-7.)

    Figure 3.12.21-7

    This is an Image: 33670007.gif

    Please click here for the text description of the image.

  2. Correct as follows:

    1. Compare the data on the register with the document being processed.

    2. Correct any transcription errors.

    3. If the section is truly not needed to process the record, delete the section with Action Code 4.

    Note:

    SECTION 01 IS A REQUIRED SECTION AT ALL TIMES. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DELETE SECTION 01 WITH ACTION CODE 4.

Missing Sections
  1. Missing sections are identified by an asterisk to the left of the section number with the alpha-field designator for the section printed on the error register. See Figure 3.12.21-8.

    Figure 3.12.21-8

    This is an Image: 33670008.gif

    Please click here for the text description of the image.

  2. Correct as follows:

    1. Compare the data on the register with the document being processed.

    2. Correct any transcription errors.

  3. If a section not identified as a missing section must be added, use Action Code 5.

    1. Enter on the register only the fields which will contain data.

    2. The fields must be entered on the register in alphabetical order by alpha-field designator.

Invalid Correction Attempt
  1. An invalid correction attempt is indicated by a "AA" printed to the right of the DLN (Document Locator Number) in the title line of the error register. For a complete description of invalid correction attempts, see IRM 3.12.37, IMF General Instructions, or IRM 3.12.38, BMF General Instructions.

  2. Correct as follows:

    1. Correct all errors identified on the error register as if no attempt had been made to correct it before. If necessary, examine the corrections on the prior error register.

    2. If all the fields are correct on the error register, enter an Action Code 7 to the left of section 01 on the error register.

Input Documents - General Explanation

  1. This section describes the concept of non-ADP as it relates to the various files’ document: Individual Master File (IMF), Business Master File (BMF), and Individual Retirement Account File (IRAF). Also described are the input documents (i.e., Form 3413, Transcription List (Account Transfer-in), and Form 3552, Prompt Assessment Billing Assembly, used to re-establish accounts to or transfer assessments to or between these files.

Non-ADP (Automated Data Processing) Document

  1. A non-ADP (Automated DATA Processing) document is a document processed for a tax period which ended before the Automated Data Processing (ADP) system was in place for a particular document.

  2. When a document is for a non-ADP period, reject, using Action Code 3. Prepare Form 4227, Intra-SC Reject or Routing Slip, and process as Non-Master File (NMF).

Form 3413 - Transcription List

  1. Form 3413, Transcription List (Account Transfer-In), with Doc Code 51 or 52 is used to transfer a list of all transaction codes, dates and amounts on a single record into the Master File. All money amounts are entered in dollars and cents.

  2. These documents are prepared for accounts which have been either on Non-Master File (NMF) or had been previously on the master file and were transferred out using Transaction Code (TC) 400 (Account Transfer-Out). (See Figure 3.12.21-9a) See IRM 3.12.37, IMF General Instructions or IRM 3.12.38, BMF General Instructions.

Correction Procedures - Section 01

  1. This section describes field validity criteria and correction procedures for Fields A through X in Section 01.

Field 01-A - Name Control (Validity Checks)
  1. The Name Control (Field 01-A) is found on the following forms as follows:

    • Form 3413, Transcription List (Account Transfer-in): "Item A" (Section 01) displays the "Name Control" .

    • Form 3552, Prompt Assessment Billing Assembly: The "Name Control" is found in the upper right corner of this form, beneath the "Notice Date" , OR it may be determined from the first line (name line) of the "Taxpayer" box on the upper left portion of the form.

  2. This field MUST always be present and can contain up to four characters.

  3. For BMF documents with a Social Security Number (SSN) (MFT 51, 52, 58, and 78), the first position must be alphabetic. The remaining characters can be alphabetic, hyphen or blank. No character may follow a blank.

  4. For BMF documents with an Employer Identification Number (EIN), the first character must be alphabetic or numeric. The remaining characters can be alphabetic, numeric, hyphen, ampersand, or blank. No character may follow a blank.

  5. For IMF and IRAF documents, the first character must be alphabetic. The remaining characters can be alphabetic, hyphen, or blank. No character may follow a blank.

Field 01-A - Name Control (Correction Procedures)
  1. Compare the document with Field 01-A. Correct any transcription errors using Action Code 6.

  2. Research Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS) for a valid name control, using correct Command Codes.

    1. If a valid name control is found, correct the name control on the document and on the register. See Figure 3.12.21-11.

      Figure 3.12.21-11

      This is an Image: 33670011.gif

      Please click here for the text description of the image.

    2. If a valid name control is not found, reject the document with Action Code 3.

Field 01-B - EIN (Employer Identification Number) or SSN (Social Security Number) and TIN Type (Taxpayer Identification Number Type) (Validity Checks)
  1. The Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) MUST always be present and MUST contain 9 digits.

    Note:

    Form 3413 ONLY: The "EIN or SSN and TIN Type" information is found in Item B (Section 01). The "EIN or SSN and TIN Type" field is not contained on the Form 3552. Form 3552 Only: The Taxpayer Identification Number is located in the upper right part of the Form 3552, beneath the Name Control information.

  2. It can't be all zeroes (0) or all nines (9).

  3. IMF (Individual Master File) and IRAF (Individual Retirement Account File) documents will contain social security numbers (SSNs).

    Note:

    The IRAF (as a separate Master File) was retired in 2004. All references to "MFT 29" are what were previously referred to as IRAF.

  4. BMF documents will have a 9-digit taxpayer identification number which can be a Social Security Number (SSN) or an Employer Identification Number (EIN).

    1. SSNVs-MFTs 51 (Form 709, United States Gift (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return), and 52 (Form 706, U.S. Estate Tax Return), will always have an SSNV.

    2. MFTs 46, 58, and 78 with a TIN Type (Field 01-K) of "0" will have an SSNV. (See Figure 3.12.21-12.) If the TIN Type is blank, the TIN is an EIN.

      Note:

      The SSNV is used to identify the TIN of a Business Master File (BMF) entity posting to the BMF with a Social Security Number (SSN) as its TIN. If given an SSN, adding the “V” to the end (i.e., XXX-SS-XXXXV) will pull up the BMF account associated with that MFT.

      Figure 3.12.21-12

      This is an Image: 33670012.gif

      Please click here for the text description of the image.

    3. EINs-must be all numeric and the first two digits may not be 00, 07 through 09, 17 through 19, 28, 29, 49, 78, 79, or 89.

Field 01-B - EIN or SSN and TIN Type - Correction Procedures
  1. Compare Field 01-B with the document. Correct any transcription errors.

    Exception:

    Only the EIN (Employer Identification Number) or SSN (Social Security Number) are corrected in Field 01-B. The TIN Type must be corrected in Field 01-K. see IRM 3.12.21.4.2.17.

  2. If the document was transcribed correctly and the taxpayer identification number contains other than 9 digits, research via IDRS, using Command Codes NAMEI and NAMES (SSNs) and NAMEB and NAMEE (EINs). If you are unable to locate a valid TIN, reject the document with Action Code 3.

  3. If the document is correct as transcribed, compare the document with the MFT code (Field 01-C) and the TIN Type (Field 01-K), i.e., SSN for IMF (Individual Master File), IRAF and MFT 51, 52, 58, and 78 and EIN for BMF. If the document has been numbered incorrectly reject with Action Code 3 for renumbering. See Figure 3.12.21-13.

Field 01-C - Master File Tax Account Code-MFT (Validity Checks)
  1. The Master File Tax Account (MFT) Code is found in Item C (Section 01), Page 1, Form 3413. It is also located in the MFT box on the upper left part of the Form 3552.

  2. This is a two-digit field that MUST be present.

  3. The MFT is pre-printed or manually entered during the preparation of the document.

  4. The MFT must be compatible with the tax class in the DLN.

Field 01-C - Master File Tax Account Code-MFT (Correction Procedures)
  1. Compare Field 01-C with the document. Correct any transcription errors.

  2. If the MFT is not present, determine the correct code using Exhibit 3.12.21-4, MFT and Tax Class Chart, and the criteria below. Enter the data in Field 01-C, using Action Code 6.

    1. If the document is IMF, the MFT must be 30, 31, 35, 55, 65 or 82.

    2. If the document is IRAF, the MFT code must be 29.

    3. If the document is BMF, the MFT code must be 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 33, 34, 36, 37, 40, 43, 44, 46, 47, 49, 50, 51, 52, 55, 58, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 67, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 83, 85, or 86.

  3. Use the information in the table provided below to determine if the document was numbered correctly. If the MFT was transcribed correctly, compare the MFT and the tax class of the DLN (tax class is the third digit of the DLN). See Figure 3.12.21-14.

Field 01-D - Tax Period (Validity Checks)
  1. The Tax Period is found in Item D (Section 01), Page 1, Form 3413. It is also located in the Tax Period box on the upper left part of the Form 3552 (to the right of the MFT box).

  2. This field MUST be present, contain six digits, and be all numeric.

  3. It is edited in YYYYMM format. The first four positions represent the year, and the last two positions represent the month of the tax period.

  4. The month in the tax period must be 01 through 12.

    • PRN 722 replaced the TC 160 so if PRN 722 or 723 is a net positive amount then the net TC 160/161/166/167 must be $0 if TC 160/161/166/167 was previously assessed.

  2. The alpha field designators, field lengths (maximum length for variable fields) and field titles are shown below.

    Field Field Length (+/−) Field Title
    02-19A/D/G 8   Transaction Date
    02-19B/E/H 3   Transaction Code
    02-19C/F/I 12 +/− Transaction Amount

  3. Each subcategory (within sections 02 through 19) consists of a group of three (3) items:

    • Each group consists of a Transaction Code, a Transaction Date and a Transaction Amount.

    • A group is considered significant when at least one (1) field in the group is present.

    • The document will appear on the error register if all 3 required fields (such as, Transaction Code, Transaction Date and Transaction Amount) in one (1) group are not present.

    • The document will appear on the error register if all the required fields in a group are not present when one field is present.

  4. When deleting a section, move the data to the smallest numbered section available and delete the highest.

    1. On the error register, edit the data from the current field to the correct corresponding field(s) in the smallest numbered section available.

    2. Enter an Action Code "6" to the left of that section to alert ISRP operators this information is being added to the section.

    3. Enter an Action Code "4" to the left of the (higher numbered) section from which the data was moved. This will inform ISRP operators to delete the section.

    (See Figure 3.12.21-21.)

Balance Transferred-In - Field 01-I - Underprint Amount

  1. A math error is indicated by printing the computer-generated amount (CGA) under Field 01-I on the register.

  2. Compare all the amount fields in Sections 01-19 and Reference Amount on the register with the input document. Sections 20-23 are also included in the computation when the Appropriation Indicator is blank. This sum must equal Field 01-I.

  3. If a transcription error is found, correct the register with Action Code 6.

    Note:

    FIELD 01-I, BALANCE TRANSFERRED IN, MAY NOT BE CHANGED.

  4. If no transcription error is found in the amount fields, determine if the transaction codes agree with the sign accompanying the amount fields. Both the transaction code field and the amount field will appear invalid if the transaction code does not agree with the sign of the transaction amount field. The valid transaction codes for BMF, IMF and IRAF are listed in the Exhibits at the end of this IRM.

    1. If the sign of the transaction amount is in error, correct the register by entering a comma (,) for debit or a pound sign (#) for credit as field breakers.

    2. If the transaction code is in error, determine the correct code and correct the register.

  5. If the document has been prepared from an attached transcript, examine the transcript to determine if an error has been made in the preparation of the document.
