Report 547 Batch Transaction Interface Error Report

This report automatically generates when payroll batch transactions are loaded. Any transaction that did not meet the required file edits will display, along with a corresponding error message. Accepted transactions are passed on to Report 548 for additional editing and loading to online data entry screens. Entries with errors can be manually entered online with the corrected information or they can be re-loaded.

Transaction counts are also included on the report and can be used for verification of the file load. Counts will be two higher than on Report 548 due to the header and footer records.

Batch loads will be processed at 4 p.m. daily. Files not received before that time will not be processed that day.
