It contains an important defect repairs to the 5B record in the Cross-Servicing file that reports veteran debt to the Treasury Department. There will be a shortened three-day compliance for installation of this patch to prevent incorrect reporting of Veteran debt. Problem: -------- Defect #INC1333082 reported some veteran accounts that were paid in full were showing balances in Cross-Servicing that were double the original balance. It was determined that the payment transactions were being reported to the Treasury incorrectly. Resolution: ----------- Modifications were made to record 5B code to ensure that all increase adjustments are sent as positive numbers and all other transactions are sent as negative numbers that will reduce the balance of the bill. Problem: -------- Defect I17391307FY18 reported that bills with First Party foreign addresses are not passing correctly to Treasury causing a reject type 45. Resolution: ----------- Modifications have been made to the weekly TCSP batch run to ensure that the correct country, state and zip code are set when a veteran address is outside the United States and there is no address node in the file AR DEBTOR (#340). The majority of these address issues deal with Canadian border VA sites (Upstate NY & Fort Harrison).
