License Filtering
Changes have been made within EDS.
The system now filters licenses to only allow those that should be associated
with a specific reports. If submission of a different type of license or an
expired license is attempted, EDS will reject it and return an error message,
“No matching record found for this License Name!”
For the Taxpaid Cigarette Wholesaler’s Report only the following license types
will be allowed based upon the type of transaction:
• Cigarette Wholesale Dealer
• Retail Tobacco Products Dealer
Transaction Filtering
After a license has been selected for a product transaction, the transaction type control will
be changed to indicate which transactions are allowed for the license selected.
The items in white and do not have an “x” are allowable transaction types. The items that
have an “x” and are highlighted yellow indicate the transaction type is not allowed for the
license selected. If the user selects an invalid transaction type, they will see the above
validation error message.
This functionality is supported in modern browsers and will work in Chrome, Firefox, and
Internet Explorer. However, Internet Explorer version 8 has been tested and works if the
document mode is set to version 8. If the browser does not support the new changes, the
new validation will not happen until the data is submitted to the web server.
All of these transactions require a Florida license/permit number with the exception Other In,
Other Out.
Report Detail Overview
The Transaction Type pull down menu contains the type of transactions
that can be recorded on the Report Detail page. All of these require
a Florida license/permit number with the exception of Other In and
Other Out.
Pack Size
Select pack size type from the Pack Size pull down menu.
You may only select pack sizes of 20 or 25. The pack size of
10 is no longer allowed per statute.
Multiple Lookup Results
In the event of multiple returns from using the Lookup feature, a popup window will
appear with possible options based upon the search criteria. Select the appropriate
row and the fields on the Detail tab will populate with the licensee’s information. The
Valid Until column will only return a status of “Active” or an expired date value. An
expired date in this column means that the actual license expired two months prior to
that date and can no longer be used in EDS. If a transaction occurred within that
two month time frame, contact EDS Support at [email protected].
The columns can now be sorted using the triangles in the column headers, but the
default sort is by business name. The triangle of a sorted column will appear grey and
only one column can be sorted at a time. An arrow pointing down shows a sort in
descending order. A upward arrow represents an ascending order sort.
Multiple Lookup Results - Continued
Search Within Results allows the user to filter the search results locally.
The filter functionality will hide rows that do not match the filter criteria.
The filter will match across any column value.
If the user does not see the needed license, select Cancel and contact
the EDS Help Desk at [email protected]. Supply
the name and address of the business if possible.
No Results Using the Lookup Feature
If an invalid or unrecognized license number is entered, a red error message displays,
“Invalid License # for this report!” or “No matching record found for this License
Number!”.

list of beverage distributors on the Division’s site.
