How to raise a Revenue Determination

Only use IDMS function RAISE DETERMINATION - MANUAL.

Return work items will be active within the function providing there isn’t already a determination request pending. Return work items that already have a determination raised will not be shown.

Highlight the work item on the RAISE DETERMINATION screen - the year of the return will appear at the bottom of the screen.

  • Enter for the selected year the:
  • total income tax
  • capital gains tax
  • tax deducted at source
  • select:
  • SUBMIT if the amounts are correct
  • CLEAR if the amounts are incorrect, and re-enter the correct amounts
  • Once you have entered the amounts for each year requiring a determination select the:
  • [OK] button
  • [Yes] button.

IDMS will then:

  • send the determination request(s) to SA overnight
  • record an Action History note on IDMS showing that a determination has been requested against the appropriate work item(s)
  • await the determination work item(s).

Note: Do not attempt to use the IDMS ‘REQUEST AUTOMATIC DETERMINATION’  button; this function is no longer supported and your determination request will be stranded.

How to amend a Revenue Determination

You can only amend or cancel a determination figure within IDMS during the same online day as you made the original request. Care should be taken to ensure the determination figure requested is for the amount intended. The determination figure will update overnight and cannot be amended.

To amend or cancel a manual determination you must first:

  • highlight the work item on the IDMS RAISE DETERMINATION screen
  • select the [Clear] button.

Amending the amount

To correct the amounts:

  • enter the correct amounts
  • select the [Submit] button
  • select the [OK] button.

Cancelling the request

To cancel the determination request on the day it was raised:
  • leave the amounts set at zero
  • select the [OK] button.

IDMS will present you with a message 'Determination total not present for all years displayed. Are you sure you wish to proceed?'

  • Select the [Yes] or [No] button as appropriate.

When IDMS sends a request to SA to raise a determination IDMS automatically records an Action History note showing that a determination has been requested against each work item. IDMS then awaits the determination work item from SA.
