In SAS Anti-Money Laundering 8.1, an e-file can be re-generated by running the rr_efile_fincen_driver job with the rr_efile_id parameter.

Because the e-file name is derived with a new timestamp, the older version of the e-file must be deleted. Otherwise, the e-filer might submit the wrong file accidentally.

This process works as expected with a manual submission to FinCEN.  However, with an automated submission process, you must change the rr_efile_export_yn macro variable value to Y, as shown below, in the rr_autoexec_usermod file:

By default, the e-file is exported to the &fcf_aml_data_path/efile/&form_type_cd directory.
