Context

  • Business License
  • Business License Filings
Cause

The default GL period has been set to 13, but the current date which is used as the default GL effective date is not within that period. The system attempts to change the GL year/period to match the GL effective date and that processes causes the CSS error.

Resolution

The default GL year/period within the GL settings program must be updated to a year and period other than period 13.

Follow these instructions to update the Default GL Year/Period
