1098-T IRIS Transmissions

1098-T IRIS Transmissions

Workday creates IRIS transmission records when you launch the
IRS 1098-T Tax Reporting (Outbound) - Generation
integration. The
IRS 1098-T (Inbound) - Acknowledgement
integration retrieves IRS status updates for transmissions in
Processing
or
Draft
status and updates the transmission status in Workday.

Document Statuses

Common document statuses for IRIS transmissions include:
Document Status
Description
Draft
Workday created the transmission record. The acknowledgment integration can also retrieve Draft transmissions so IRS status recovery can continue when a transmission hasn't advanced to Processing yet.
Processing
The IRS accepted the submission for processing, or Workday advanced the transmission while waiting for a Receipt ID.
Accepted
The IRS accepted the transmission.
Accepted with Errors
The IRS accepted the transmission with errors that you must review.
Rejected
The IRS rejected the transmission. Rejected originals can be eligible for Replacement filing.
Schedule the acknowledgment integration until when all 1098-T filings have reached a final status of Accepted, or when your institution completes tax season filing. Access the
Scheduled Future Processes
task to edit or cancel the schedule and prevent unnecessary execution runs.

Identifiers

Identifier
Description
Transmission ID / Unique Transmission Identifier (UTID)
Identifies the transmission in Workday and supports recovery when a Receipt ID isn't available yet.
Receipt ID
Identifier returned by the IRS for the transmission. Required for some correction and replacement scenarios.

Corrections and Student Records

When you process corrections on the
View 1098-T
task, Workday updates the existing 1098-T record rather than creating a duplicate student record. A single student 1098-T record can link to multiple historical transmission filings.

Legacy FIRE Filing

You can continue to use legacy file-based 1098-T processes for prior tax years. After the IRS retires the Filing Information Returns Electronically (FIRE) system, you must use IRIS to remain compliant with federal tax reporting mandates.
