Generating an Error Report
To generate an error report:
- Select a country and then enter all or part of a declaration number in theDeclarationfield. If the number is partial, then suggested declarations will appear in a drop-down, as shown below.
Clicking on this number will pull up the desired declaration. The results grid will display all matching filer, internal, and external errors for the declaration. Any or all these errors can be added to a report. - Review which discrepancies to include in the report.
- Make any necessary adjustments before creating the final version of the report.
- Once the desired error(s) for the report have been selected (by using the checkboxes on the far left), clickGenerate Report.
ClickingGenerate Reportwill open theGenerate Reportpop-up. - Choose which type of error report is to be sent and a report file type.
Once the report is generated, you can open the report or reset the Report Type (which will return you to the previous pop-up screen).
Each selected validation discrepancy will then be stored in an individual error report for the declaration currently open on the
Error Reporting
screen. It will also be added to ONESOURCE Document Retention and can be viewed locally. Document Retention is covered more in the Document Retention
section of this User Guide.For the Party and Fee Errors sections; if a given item is at the header level, it will show “H” as the value for the
Line
column. All grids with line numbers are ordered by line number, with header items coming first.The Header, Detail, Party, and Fees errors are separated into their own sections for easier viewing. If a section does not have any error notes to show, that section will be excluded from the report. In the example below, since the report contained no fee errors, the
Fee Errors
section does not exist.
