If it is determined that corrections are required either to the employer or employee data after running the Benefits ACA 1095C Print Report, then run the Benefits ACA Purge Process. Running the Benefits ACA Purge Process will remove all archived data for the GRE and Year selected, so special care must be taken when running this process. Important: The purge process must be run only if data requires correcting.
f the Benefits ACA Purge Process is run, then the Benefits ACA Archive Process must be run after any necessary corrections have been made. If the Benefits ACA 1095C Print Report is run before the Benefits ACA Archive Process is rerun, then no person will be selected for printing and therefore no output will be produced.
