R0000-901-01 e-file error

Database Validation Error: /Return/ReturnHeader/Filer/EIN: Filer's EIN and Name Control in the Return Header must match data in the e-File database. (value xxxxxxxxx, rule R0000-901-01)
note
The value represents the EIN that was present in the e-file.
The name used with this EIN doesn't match the IRS records. You may have sent the wrong EIN in the e-file, or the name control needs to be forced.

Solution

  1. Go to the
    General input
     folder.
  2. Open the
    990
     screen.
  3. Check that the
    EIN
     and
    Name
     fields are correct.
  4. If they are incorrect, fix them and re-create and retransmit the return.
  5. If the EIN and name are correct, go to the
    Electronic Filing input
     screen.
  6. Check the
    Name Control
     fields:
    • The
      Calculated
       field is populated automatically depending on what is in the
      Name
       field in the
      General input
       folder. Refer to the “Name Control” section of IRS publication 4163 for information and guidelines regarding the name control.
    • You can use the
      Force
       field to enter a different name control if necessary.
    • If you're unsure of what to enter for the name control, contact the IRS e-help desk at 866-255-0654 to find out what they have on file.
  7. If you made any changes, re-create and retransmit the return.
  8. If the name control can't be reconciled, you'll need to file the return on paper.
