Correcting and re-uploading erroneous IRIS files

Eric Updated by Eric

This article is for fixing files so they can be uploaded to the IRIS system. To transmit corrections to previously submitted files, see Submitting IRIS CSV Portal corrections.

Upon upload, if IRIS happens to read an error within your form(s), it will immediately give you an error message, prohibiting you from continuing with your upload.

The IRIS message does not identify which file it found a problem with, in cases where multiple files were uploaded.
  1. Click Remove.
  2. Fix the error(s).
    1. If the problem is with user data input into the form, input the correct data.
      Do not mark the Corrected checkbox if it wasn't already marked, as a resubmittal is not the same as correcting a submitted return.
    2. If the form looks correct, check that the files weren't created in an outdated version of Payroll System by checking the latest version is running and then moving onto the next step to recreate the files.
  3. Recreate the affected file(s).
    1. Open the e-file module and click Step 3 on the tab strip.
    2. Select the rejected file then click Reset Status, then click Yes. The selected file(s) will move to the Step 2 tab.
    3. In the Step 2 tab in the File Creation section, click IRIS CSV File then OK. Select the desired file(s) then click Create File. The file(s) will be recreated and then moved to the Step 3 tab.
      The filename will remain the same and overwrite the existing file(s) with the error(s).
    4. Reupload the file(s) to IRIS.
