It is recommended that you periodically run a Business Returns Not Accepted Report to identify business returns that have been marked as completed in the program but that have not yet been accepted by the IRS, either because they haven't been transmitted or they have been rejected.
To print the business returns not accepted report, from the Main Menu of TaxSlayer Pro select:
- Business
- Electronic Filing Menu
- Print Reports
- Returns Not Accepted
- Returns Not Accepted Report or
State Returns Not Accepted Report or
Electronic Extensions Not Accepted Report
The selected report will display on the screen. Every business return that has been marked as complete but has either been rejected or not yet transmitted will be listed on the report.
In determining why a return is listed on the report, look at the Acceptance Code (Acc Code) column and the Transmission Date (Tran Date) column. If there is an R in the Acceptance Code column, the return has been rejected by the IRS. Review your business acknowledgements for the reject code or use View Entity Status from the Business Main Menu to determine the reason the return was rejected.
If a return does not have a code in the Acceptance Code column, look at the Transmission Date column. If there is no date listed, this return has not been transmitted by your office. You will need to transmit the return.
