This example illustrates the fields and controls on the ACA Transmittal Parameters page.

Field or Control	Description
Calendar Year	The calendar year for which data is being reported.
Form Type Code	This is a protected field; it defaults to 1094/1095C.
Number of Records Per File	This field defaults to 10000. Due to an IRS transmittal file size limitation, each file may not exceed 100 MB. The IRS estimates that 100MB represents about 10,000 employee records. You can adjust this default value based on your specific business and environment.
Default File Type	This field defaults to AATS. The valid values are AATS and Production. AATS stands for generating test-data submissions to the IRS. Production stands for generating real-data submissions to the IRS.
