• Each employee that requires an ACA form must have at least one record in that applicable tax year

 NOTE: You must have a valid support plan so the "Expired-Do not file" watermark doesn't print

1. In 2014 PU6 or 2015 PU2.
2. Set up ACA Employer Maintenance for 2015 and set up a couple of Employees.
3. Install PU 7 or PU 3. Notice in the PR_ACAEmployer file the ACA forms to use field is blank.
4. Generate 1095-C or 1095-B form. Notice the ACA information is missing.
5. Close ACA preparer.
6. Go into ACA Employer Maintenance and select the 1095-B and reselect the 1095-C or vice versa. This will cause the ACA Employer file to populate correctly.

Customers often call because the 1095-C form appears selected by default on the screen. The system displays a blank form until the user selects one. Selecting a C form and a Policy Origin Code causes similar confusion. The system will gray out the Policy Origin Code when users select a C form.
