WinMORE End of Year Update

DUE DATE: Before All Associate process
It is critical that you print the Associate 1099 report and complete the End of Year update in WinMORE.

Step 1: Print the Year End – Associate T4A/1099 Proof Report
Print the Year End – Associate T4A/1099 Proof Report and make all corrections in the Associate records before proceeding.

It is critical that this report be error free before moving on to the next steps.

Common Error Messages for the Agent T4A/1099 Proof Report are:
Error Message                                                                                      Solution
The associate individual name appears to be a company name          In Enter – Associates correct the First                                                                                                                and Last Name to match the name                                                                                                                  on their Social Security Card.
The associate individual first name is required.                                    In Enter – Associates enter the First                                                                                                                  Name to match the first name on                                                                                                                    their Social Security Card.

Step 2: Year End – EOY Update
Before completing the update, the system will check for missing information with co-brokers or outside brokers. This information must be corrected before you can complete the end of year update.
    1.  In WinMORE, click on Year End and select End of Year Update. Check “erase adj/other commission       amounts” to clear out all the previous year adjustments. Click “Start.”

    2.  If you receive a report of missing or invalid information, you must correct this (using the Enter              menu and selecting Co-Broker or Outside Broker) before completing the End of Year Update. If only      the column headers print, everything is correct and there are no errors.
The most common error is when a dash is used in the Broker TIN field. If you see, for example, 87-2345231 on the report, open the Outside or Co-Broker record and delete the dash (-) to save it as 872345231 without the dash. Now complete the End of Year Update. Make sure you see “Process Completed.”

NOTE: The Year End – End Of Year Update “Erase all Adj/Other Commission amounts”, when checked, deletes all Adjustments made in the Edit Recipients records. You should only do this the first time you run this report for the current year-end processes—otherwise you will be erasing adjustments made for the current year.
