4 Slide 2 - What you will learn My name is Darcy, and I'm an ADP representative. Before we begin, it is recommended that you take the Reviewing ACA Annual Reporting Data that Is Ready for Preview training so you learn how to access and review preliminary drafts of the annual health care reports on the ADP Health Compliance pages. Here's what you'll learn about in this training. Let's get started. Page 2 of 26

7 Slide 5 - Forms Requiring Your Attention Forms that require your attention are categorized into two statuses. A form that has an Incomplete status may be missing data or have data with errors. You must review and address incomplete forms to ensure that accurate data is sent to the Internal Revenue Service. A form that was previously accepted will change to a Changes Since Accepted status if a change is processed in ADP Workforce Now or HR & Benefits. Page 5 of 26

13 Slide 11 - Explore: Form 1095-C, Need Attention (cont.) This page includes all of the ABC Towing employees who have Forms 1095-C that need attention. You can filter the list by form status or search for a specific employee. As a best practice, ADP recommends that you periodically download and save the Export CSV of All Employees for Full Analysis file for your records. This file is useful for you to see all of your employees' statuses at a glance. However, you will need to access each form individually to view the details. Let's use a filter so that you see only forms that are incomplete. In the Filter By field, click the down arrow. Page 11 of 26
