Question

Import employees using XML and Excel into ACA 1095-C PDF form

Greetings,

I'm new to the forum community, so I'll try and keep this concise.

As a regular user of MS Excel and Access, I've created our own database program to hold all information for the new 1095-C form.

I believe I know how to import a single employee data-set to a blank 1095-C, but how can I "merge" all employees in one "sweep"?

I'd rather not have to do each employee import one at a time.

Could anyone shed some light on this?

I realize there is a level of complication to this, but we are NOT required to file electronically. This is only to create the employee copies.

Thank you so much!

In the trying-to-offer-helpful-advice department, I asked one of our PDF experts, and he suggested the following:

Best to do it as two passes

1 – Do each individual employee

2 – merge the individual ones together into a single PDF (assuming that is what they want as the final output)

Sorry about posting in the wrong area. I looked and looked through my options but couldn't seem to find a forum that made sense to me.

Yes, that is what I think I saw as my best option as well. I wasn't sure if it was possible to import a text file with multiple records in a "mail-merge" concept.

I tried this with some basic dummy data, but I was required to only select one "row" of data for the import. I couldn't do all of them at once into multiple 1095-C forms.

So I presume the import "mail-merge" idea is not possible with a pdf form?

If not, I suppose I'll do it as individual passes; It'll just take a bit longer.

Thanks for your response regardless. Really appreciate it!

Unfortunately, this project, Mapping Resources for PDF, has absolutely nothing to do with your issue/question. Sadly, I cannot offer any helpful advice on your matter.
