Reviewing the Return Transfer Report
When the export process completes, the Return Transfer report displays the export status for each return ID. If an export is unsuccessful, Exception displays in the Status column and a brief explanation is given in the Comments column.
Return Transfer groups return data by tax year, creating one file for each year. The export file name includes the date and time the transfer occurred. For example, a transfer of 2025 tax returns performed on March 2, 2026 at 2:30 pm would produce a file name of 2025_RT_20260302_1430.DAT.
