2.4.16  Command Codes REQ54 and ADJ54

2.4.16.1  (01-01-2009)
General ADJ54 and REQ54 Information

  1. This section applies to employees designated to make data processing (DP) adjustments to tax, to penalty, and to interest.

  2. Prior to doing an adjustment on a module a prerequisite command code must have been requested. This is required so that the module's tax and control data may be verified and to generate the TIN, MFT, Plan Number (or Report Number), Tax Period and name control.

    1. Valid prerequisite command code for REQ54 are TXMOD, FRM34, DRT24, DRT48, DOALL, ACTON and ADJ54.

    2. Enter REQ54 to request the screen format for ADJ54.

    3. If REQ54 follows ADJ54, then an MFT, Tax period and Plan Number (or Report Number) must be input to the screen also. This sequence is allowed only if it is an adjustment to a different module for the same account.

    4. REQ54 may not follow ACTON or DOALL if no control base action was taken on the module.

    5. To complete the adjustment action, enter the necessary transaction codes and other data using the ADJ54 format.

  3. REQ54 and ADJ54 may be input to IMF, BMF, and IRAF. They are not valid for NMF or EPMF.

  4. The specific tax module to be adjusted must be present in IDRS. This requirement is fulfilled by the "dummy" module mentioned below. DP adjustments should be input to dummy modules only under limited circumstances, such as when no doubt exists regarding either the makeup of the master file module or the composition of the needed adjustment. If REQ54 is preceded by ADJ54, the terminal operator must have researched the presence of the subsequent module to be adjusted for the same account.

  5. Screen Format of CC ADJ54 generates in response to REQ54 and thus need not be keyed in. Use ADJ54 to adjust tax, penalty, interest, credit items, and line item.

  6. ADJ54 will systematically default to CC LETER which will generate the LPAGE screen format when the terminal operator inputs a "Y" in the Acknowledgment Letter field on the ADJ54 screen.

  7. Case Control:

    1. In order for the terminal operator to adjust a module, no other employee can have a control base in status S, A, or M. However, a base controlled to another employee which is in status B or C does not prohibit ADJ54 input.

    2. If the last control base on the module has the terminal operator's employee number as the assignee number and if that base was updated to status C today, an input ADJ54 (or credit transfer) will not establish an additional control base. Any ADJ54 input case control information will be ignored by the computer.

    3. If the input terminal operator has no control base established for the module being adjusted, a control base will generate automatically. Status, category, activity code, and IRS Received Date may be entered via the screen. Status "C" , category "TPRQ" , activity code "54-TAXADJ" and current date for IRS Received Date (only if asterisk is entered) will be generated whenever no alternative is input.

    4. If the input terminal operator has an open control base established for the module, the activity code "54-TAX-ADJ" will be generated unless another activity code is screen input. The status, category, and IRS Received Date will update only when the elements are screen input. An additional control base will not be added to the TIF if the following conditions are present: An open control base is assigned to the terminal operator with today's date, there is no input on the control base line on the screen, and the ACTIVITY-CODE of the open base is the same ACTIVITY-CODE as "54-TAX-ADJ" which is generated when the ACTIVITY-CODE field is blank.

    5. Use ACTON or DOALL to control an adjustment case when immediate action cannot be taken, or if necessary when a control already exists in the module. When a module is not present in IDRS or if the module is a memo module, input of ACTON or DOALL will create a dummy module and establish the case control; it will also generate TC 902 requesting the module from the master file into IDRS. See section on CASE CONTROL AND HISTORY.

    6. If TXMOD or SUMRY displays ENTITY-CONTROL / ENT-CTRL , the entity module contains an open control base which may be related to your case. Contact the controlling employee before taking action.

  8. When adjustment action is completed and ADJ54 is released, assemble work papers with return, if present, and mark with date, employee number, and sequence number. Forward folders for association with Form 5147 (IDRS Transaction Record) for filing. See IRM 2.9, Chapter 1 IDRS Transaction Input.

  9. IDRS DP Adjustment inputs are not allowed for Dummy Accounts established on the IDRS TIF before the account is established on the IRS Master Files. Effective July 5, 1989, checks are performed by CC REQ54 to confirm that, for adjustment attempts on Dummy Accounts, the tax account is posted to the IRS Master File (IMF, BMF). If the account is not established on the Master File or if the account (Valid SSN, Invalid SSN or EIN) is established but the Name Control on the TIF account does not match the current Master File Name Control, then an error response will be returned by CC REQ54.

2.4.16.2  (01-01-2009)
Terminal Responses to Command Codes REQ54 and ADJ54

  1. Valid responses:

    1. For CC REQ54 the valid response is a display of the format for ADJ54. The TIN, MFT, Plan Number (or Report Number), Tax Period and name control taken from TXMOD, FRM34, DRT48, DRT24, DOALL, ACTON or input on screen with CC REQ54 are generated on line 1.

    2. For CC ADJ54 the valid response is display of the message "REQUEST COMPLETED" on screen line 24.

  2. Error responses:

    1. For CC ADJ54 an item, amount, MFT, Plan Number (Report Number), Tax Period, transaction, or reference number displayed in inverse video indicates an error in the data field or an inconsistency among fields. In addition to all error fields being displayed in inverse video, fields found in error will also be followed by an asterisk. Review fields displayed in inverse video; correct data and reenter.

    2. Terminal messages display in inverse video on lines 23 and 24. REQ54 and ADJ54 messages are listed separately in See IRM 2.4.16.3.

  15. SYSTEM ERROR ON ACCESS/UPDATE — An error was encountered when accessing the database. Notify RPA. This very often means that the wrong version of the program is being used and does not match up with the version required for the data base.

  16. DATA BASE ERROR nnRETRY — The data requested from the database has already been reserved by a prior request or a quick recovery is in progress. Try reinputting data three times. If still not successful, try again tomorrow.

  17. RC2 / 3 / 4 MUST BE BLANK WHEN SRC IS 7 AND RC1 IS 086 / 087 / 089 / 090 / 091 — This message is in coordination with message 34. It was added to guarantee that Reason Code positions 2, 3, and 4 remain blank when the combination of Source Code and RC1 values stated in message 34 are used.

  18. ADDCTRL ERROR-nn-NOTIFY CONTROL POINT — Subroutine ADDCTRL encountered an invalid condition when trying to append a control history record to the tax module. Contact RPA.

  19. REQUEST DENIED-NO FUTA STATE INPUT — If MFT is 10 at least one FUTA STATE CODE must be input to the reference number/FUTA STATE CODE field when a TC 29X is input with a non-zero amount.

  21. xTIFn-AREA NOT AVAILABLE — The portion of the TIF for this account is not currently available for processing. x-(ITIF, BTIF, or ZTIF) n-(TIF AREA number).

  22. VALID SRCE-CD FOR BMF AND MFT 55 IF OTN IS PRESENT IS 0 OR 7 — The OTN requires the use of Source Code 0 or 7, therefore mandating one of these two values for BMF and MFT 55 transactions, which normally would not use a Source Code.

  23. NO DATA FOR REQUESTED MODULE / INCORRECT MFT OR TXPRD OR PLAN–NUM — Terminal operator is trying to adjust another module for same TIN but subsequent module is not present. Use DOALL or ACTON to build dummy and re-enter REQ54.

  24. TAX TC MISSING — TC 29X was missing when trying to input FUTA-ST-CD(s).

  25. TAX PERIOD MONTH MUST BE 12 FOR MFT 14 — If the MFT is 13 or 55, and the CIV-PEN REF is within the following Range of numbers, the Tax Period Month must be 12: MFT 55: REFs 510-519, 52D9, 538-541, 601-603,606, 611.

A Penalty TC for zero amount
A Penalty Abatement TC
A CIV-PEN REF (includes 68X)
PRC 041is an exception to these conditions and can be used alone.
      b. PRC VALUES ARE:
BMF: 010, 012-023, 025-032, 039-046, 050-051, 066-067, 071-073.

      b. FUTA (STATE CODES)
Referred to as FUTA:
A three character code made up of T or Y (referring to taxes), or W or Z (referring to wages), followed by a two character state code (as used by the U.S. Postal Service).
        (1) The same state may be input with T, W, Y, Z on the same adjustment action.
        (2) No duplicate FUTA State Codes are permitted on the same adjustment action regardless of the amount
        (3) T, W, Y ,Z are valid for MFTs 30 and 31 (199512 and later). TC29x must be present.
        (4) T, W are valid for MFTs 05/10.
        (5) For MFT 10, FUTA State Codes are required input when TC 29X is input with an amount. (Letter T in OVERRIDE-CD will bypass this requirement).
Other non-FUTA REFs may be used as well..
      c. DRI-CODE (Delinquent Return Indicator code)—: Letters E, X, C, Ito be used with the 5xx range REFs. The first digit is replaced with a DRI code.
17 2 12–26 (AMT) AMOUNT FOR ABSTR NUMs / ITEM-REFs / CREDIT-REFs / CREDIT-OIL-REFs / CIV-PEN REFs / FUTA STATE CDs / DRI-CDs— Amounts corresponding to REF CDs. Each CD must have an amount. Each amount must have a corresponding REF CD.
      a. Input correct amount, starting with leftmost position. Amount must be in dollar-and-cents format with commas and decimal point inserted. Minus signs go after the cents. Plus signs are invalid.
Examples:
5,566.59

149,067,822.04-
      c. For certain MFTs, the algebraic total of specific REF amounts must equal the algebraic total of tax (29X) amounts. MFTs and REF amounts involved in the consistency check are listed in the MFT/TAX/REF AMT Table contained in the description of TRANSACTION AMOUNT (Line 10, Item 2f.) the TAX/REF Amount check is not made when the only TC input is a 290 for zero amount.
      d. Unless otherwise noted, amounts may be positive or negative.

Exhibit 2.4.16-7  (01-01-2009)
MFT/REF CONSISTENCY TABLE
IN ORDER BY MFT

Valid Numbers:

BMF FIRST, THEN IMF
Invalid combinations for MFTs and REFs are not listed. The invalid condition is assumed if a REF is not listed with an MFT, or if an MFT is not listed with a REF.

NOTE: Abstract Numbers for MFTs 74 (Form 5500) and 76 (Form 5330) are not in this table.
See Exhibit 2.4.16-2.



Alpha codes to designate specific categories of REFs:
C = Credit E = Energy Invest N = Neg Amt O = Oil P = CIV-PEN


TAX PERIOD RESTRICTIONS are shown with TPR followed by the earliest valid Tax Period, or Tax Period range.
NLT
(No Later Than) is used to show the latest valid Tax Period. These will follow any alpha codes for a particular REF, or will follow applicable REF numbers if no alpha codes apply.
See first page for explanations and input examples of
FUTA-ST CODEs, DRI-CODEs, CIV-PEN REFs REQUIRING MONTH-12,
and DATA-REFs-1/2; REF-CHG-1/2.

EXPLANATIONS AND EXAMPLES for
VALUES OTHER THAN COMMON REFERENCE NUMBERS
 
FUTA-STATE CODES Must begin with T or Y (for taxes), W or Z (for wages), followed by valid 2-character alpha State Code
used by the U.S. Postal Service. Same State Code may be used with separate FUTA Codes.
INPUT FOR ADJ54, using Illinois example:
TIL, YIL, WIL, ZIL.
 
DRI-
CODES
Delinquent Return Indicator Codes represent 5XX series of CIV-PEN REFS where
1st digit has been replaced by an alphabetic DRI-CODE of E, X, C, or I.
INPUT for ADJ54, using 512 example:
E12, X12, C12, I12.
 
DATA-REFS-1/2 and REF-CHG-1/2
 
Most common use:
DATA-REF-1/2 values of 410 or 413-499 are valid with MFTs other than 03 and 46.
REF-CHG-1/2: Corresponding 10 digit field consists of 6 digit NAICS code followed by 4 zeroes.

DATA-REF Values 411 and 412 are specifically for Form 8038 series returns (MFT 46).
If 411 is entered in DATA-REF-1, Date of Issue must be entered in REF-CHG-1.
If 412 is entered in DATA-REF-2, Maturity Date must be entered in REF-CHG-2.
The last two right positions will automatically zero fill for REF-CHG-1/2.
INPUT examples for ADJ54::
DATA-REF-1>411 REF-CHG-1>2007091600
DATA-REF-2>412 REF-CHG-2>2009091600

DATA-REF values 900 thru 905 are Tire Count codes specifically for Form 720 (MFT 03).
They correlate with Abstr Nums 0108, 0109, 0113 and Credit REF Numbers 0304, 0305, 0396.
If 900-905 are entered in DATA-REF-1/2, enter corresponding counts in REF-CHG-1/2.
Counts can be up to 9 digits. Field holds 10 digits. Leading zero will automatically generate.
If more than two counts need to be entered (up to six counts maximum),
enter separate transactions for additional counts (two at a time maximum) and
use PSTNG-DLAY-CD (Line 14 ADJ54 screen) for each additional transaction.

INPUT examples for ADJ54:
one or two counts needed (one count only is allowed):
DATA-REF-1>901 REF-CHG-1>0000256444
DATA-REF-2>902 REF-CHG-2>0001223776
If only one count entered, DATA-REF-2 and REF-CHG-2 will be blank, and
zeros will be passed to output records.

three counts needed:
DATA-REF-1>903 REF-CHG-1>0000000999
DATA-REF-2>904 REF-CHG-2>0000000785
-------------new transaction----------------
DATA-REF-1>904 REF-CHG-1>0000000402 and PSTNG-DLAY-CD>1
-----DATA-REF-2 and REF-CHG-2 will be blank, and zeros passed to output records.

six counts needed:
DATA-REF-1>903 REF-CHG-1>0000000999
DATA-REF-2>904 REF-CHG-2>0000000785
-------------new transaction----------------
DATA-REF-1>904 REF-CHG-1>0000000402
