Require TIN/FEIN before Disbursement can be created (AGS-4581)

Benefits:

Maximize the ability to control disbursements to only those that have completed a W-9 form.
Reduce IRS fines for 1099's that are missing Tax Identification Numbers for new customers.
Reduce effort to accurately process 1099-PATR forms with per unit retain amounts.
Reduce time and effort to collect W-9 forms by preventing the disbursement of the check.

Details:

This will give you the control to ensure GRN and/or AP disbursements are not issued until TIN/FEIN is acquired.

Usage:

ACP - Disbursements Processing:

ACP - Manual Voucher:

INV - Stock Additions:

The same message shown above will also be displayed when the user attempts to print the check directly from the Stock Addition process for a vendor with no Tax ID.

ACP - Automatic Disbursements:

Vendors with no Tax ID will be skipped during the auto-disbursement process, when this new setup option is set to "Y".

ACP - Patronage Refund Disbursements:

No changes were made in the A/P Refund Disbursement process. The Patronage system already has a solution for patrons with no Tax ID. In the Patronage Refund setup screen, there is a "Percent to withhold if there is no Tax ID". Patronage already has a solution in place to prevent the payable amounts from being transferred to A/P when the Tax ID is missing, so no additional changes were made in the A/P Patronage Refund Disbursement process, related to this new setup enhancement in the A/P system.
