Reviewing the Output

After generating the files, review for errors. Correct any errors you find and regenerate the files as needed.

1. Review validation and setup errors.

   CSV output

   Review errors if there are any on the PDF generated in validate mode. Review the report and correct all errors before you upload a CSV file. Errors can include:

   • Invalid or missing required information.
   • Incorrect processing option values.
   • A blank or inaccessible output file path.

   XML output

   Validate the generated XML file against the applicable reporting-year XML schema and business rules.

2. Confirm the generated file and file path (applicable to CSV Files).
   Verify that the system generated each CSV file and wrote it to the defined file path.

   Note: XML uses a default file path (print queue or export folder path).

3. Correct and Regenerate Output.

   After correcting errors, rerun the report. For CSV output, first run the report in Validate Only mode. Generate the CSV file only after the validation report contains no errors. When regenerating output, use a controlled file path and file name to prevent overwriting previously generated files.
