Note
Reprocessing never changes returns you've already filed. When a reprocessed transaction falls in a filed period, Anrok negates the original entry and creates a new one in your current open period, so your historical filings and compliance record stay intact.
Important
Reprocessing may result in refunds of tax collected from customers that fall outside the statute of limitations for tax refunds in the applicable jurisdictions. You're responsible for corresponding with the taxing authorities about any assessments, notices, refund claims, or amendments that arise from this action.
