FileLocal Standard Implementation -
Requirements Gathering
There are 3 types of implementations with the FileLocal Portal:
❑ Standard — covers basic system functionality, features common to all Cities, and standard forms with a limited
number of edits. This document covers Standard Implementation, which is provided at a flat rate with a single
assessment. The allowed number of edits is defined in each section of this document. If the City needs additional edits,
the changes will be costed in addition to the agreed flat rate. Standard implementation does NOT include web services.
❑ Plus — covers everything described above as Standard, with the addition of web services. There is an additional
charge to set up web services, and the cost varies based on the City's system of record (SOR) and the amount of technical
assistance required from Avenu. If the City elects to use web services, it is most cost effective to implement web services
concurrent with the initial launch. Web service implementation is not covered in this document, but it will be outlined in
the Change Request for your City's implementation. If web services are added later, Avenu will provide a cost estimate
for the conversion from Standard to Standard Plus. Later conversion will be more costly than initial Plus implementation.
® Premium — covers everything described above as Standard, with or without web services, with the addition of
custom City -specific features. This would include for example, additional tax forms, worksheets, or calculations that are
not described in this document. Custom features will be costed a la carte over and above the base price, any overages,
and the cost for web service implementation, if applicable. Premium Implementation requires the completion of this
document as well as approval of the Change Request(s) and associated costs for custom features.
The FileLocal Standard Implementation option is designed to expedite the implementation process for new Cities. This
implementation offers a predetermined set of items for General Business License Applications and Renewals, as well as a
multi -purpose Business and Occupation ("B&O") tax form, which includes additional local taxes such as gambling and
utility. This option does not utilize a web service interface between the Portal and the City's system of record (SOR). Web
service integration can be enabled through the Agency change request process. If the City elects to implement with web
services, the implementation will be upgraded from Standard to Plus. Completion of this document will also help to
determine if custom features are needed by the City. If additional features are needed that are not described in this
document, it is the City's responsibility to notify the Agency of those requirements.
Please review the following sections, complete the requested information (highlighted in yellow), verify standard
information (highlighted in blue), and note any changes in the document using Word's change tracking feature. If a
requested change is outside the scope of the Standard Implementation, an estimate of customization charges will be
provided by the Agency.
• General Citv Information: This section gathers basic info about the City and the admin user accounts needed for
City personnel.
• Business User Accounts: This section briefly describes the user account setup process for business users. No
data is collected in this section.
• General Business License Application: This section covers all the questions asked on the General Business
License application and allows the City to add City -specific questions and indicate what questions affect the fee
charged for a license.
• General Business License Renewals: This section explains the General Business License renewal process and
collects information and business rules for renewals.
• Tax Forms: This section allows the City to indicate what taxes are collected and the rates for those taxes. It
starts with a basic tax form and allows a limited number of edits within the standard implementation.
• Appendix: This section provides screen caps of the existing system so that you can see the taxpayer experience,
additional information about the renewal upload format, a sample City of Everett General Business License
printout, and samples of City -specific questions already in use for charter Cities.

This information will need to be given to
KUBRA, the FileLocal payment processor.
Setting up a KUBRA account takes 6-8
weeks.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR KUBRA/CHASE ACCOUNT
KUBRA will provide you with setup documentation. Once the paperwork is submitted and confirmed complete, their setup
process takes 6-8 weeks and cannot be expedited. Along with that paperwork, you also need to provide the following:
• Form W-9
• Bank letter — this is a letter from your bank confirming your City's bank account information, including account name,
account number, ABA wire routing number, and ACH routing number. The letter must be on bank letterhead and
signed by a bank official.
• Number of expected transactions per year
• Average dollar amount of expected transactions
• Maximum dollar amount of transaction — we recommend you use the amount of your highest tax payment plus 15%.
It is best to include a copy of the tax return. You may redact taxpayer information.
Payments in the Portal are handled by KUBRA, a secure third -party processor. KUBRA authorizes the payments in real-time and
processes all payments made by 5:00 PM Pacific Time after midnight. The filing data from the Portal is batched based on those
successful payments. The City can then pull the batch after 4:00 AM Pacific Time the next weekday morning according to the
following schedule:

Technical Questions
Web services are not available to the City in Standard Implementation. This document is designed to cover requirements
not related to web services, since those are addressed separately. A Change Request can be created to add web service
support concurrent with the initial launch or at a later time. In the absence of web services, the website User Interface
(UI) must be used to download data for Applications, Renewals, and Tax forms processed through the Portal. Filing data
can be downloaded in XML, CSV, or PDF format. The UI also allows the City to interact with business accounts, run
reports, and conduct research.

Business User Account Setup
Account Setup for business users has been streamlined from a multi -step process to a simple sign-up designed to cover single -
location businesses in one step. The process extends to allow for additional locations and helps to ensure that all participating
Cities' licenses are linked to the business account in FileLocal. Account setup includes basic information about the user, the
company (single or main location), additional locations, and existing licenses with our participating Cities. The user will also be
prompted to complete a General Business License application if one is needed for any participating FileLocal Cities.
User Info
The Portal allows the user to create a unique username and choose a password. The user enters name, phone number, and
email address to establish the user account.
Company Info
For the company as a whole, the user provides the Legal Business Name, mailing address, and business type (corporation, sole
proprietorship, LLC, etc.).
Business Location Info
In one-step setup, the user enters information about the main (or single) location where business is conducted. This includes
the trade name (DBA), UBI-16, and physical address. If the UBI is not known, the user can look it up or apply for one after the
account is set up. Businesses that are exempt from legal requirement can also certify exemption.
Security Question
The Portal requires a security question to verify the user's identity, if needed later for a password reset.
Email Confirmation
The Portal sends an email to the address provided to verify it is an active email account. The email contains an activation code
for the user to enter on the Portal.
Linking Licenses
The user is prompted to link existing business licenses to the new FileLocal account. This allows the City to verify the City
Account Number entered is valid and provide a status for the license. If the license is approved, then the user will be able to
print and renew license even though it was obtained outside the Portal.
Other Tasks
• General Business License application: The user is also prompted to complete a General Business License application if
an additional license is needed. The General Business License application allows the user to apply for a license in one
or more Cities, at once or separately, and the Portal automatically prefills the application with data already provided.
Once approved, the City assigns a City Account Number.
• Additional Business Locations: The user can also set up additional business locations in the Portal by providing the
UBI-16 (if legally required), trade name, NAICS code, physical and mailing addresses, and existing license information.
Again, the City will have the opportunity to verify the City Account Number in the City Admin UI before the user will
be allowed to print a license through the Portal.
• Tax Forms: If the business is responsible to pay taxes to any Cities where they have a business license, the user can
set up the tax forms for each location and City for future use. This can be done in advance or at the time of initial
filing. Tax Form Setup includes the City where taxes are owed, the business location, the tax form to be filed, and how
often the tax is due. The City will have the opportunity to verify this information through the City Admin UI before the
user will be allowed to file taxes.
• License Renewal: The user can renew licenses through the Portal even if the license was obtained externally.
• License Printing: The user can print the business license through the Portal even if the license was obtained
externally, as long as the license is in an approved status.

Tax Forms
There are 21 tax classifications included on the Multi -Purpose B&O Tax Form, including services apportioned and services not
apportioned. If this list does not match the City's needs, the City can elect to make 10 line changes for tax classifications
without additional charges — adding, deleting, or modifying a line. The Tax Code number, rate, and expiration can be edited for
all lines.
• Removing a tax classification will automatically remove all the deductions associated with it and counts as a single
change.
• Adding a Tax Classification includes adding up to 3 deductions plus the standard "Other" Deduction and counts as a
single change.
• Editing a Tax Classification includes editing the name, tooltip, and deductions. This counts as a single change.
• Marking a line as having no deductions automatically removes the deductions and counts as a single change.
Please verify the values and rates in the following tables. Tax Classification text and rates, along with their deductions, for
future filing periods can be managed in the Portal by City Administrators, but changes MUST be made in advance of the first
and shortest effective filing period. Past due forms will be able to be filed as far back as the latest rate change date or 1/1/2013,
whichever is later.
Additional changes are available at an extra customization charge.
Multi -purpose Tax Form
The tax form is based on the Bellevue Multi -Purpose B&O Tax form. See a&O Tax Form Sample Screenshots in the appendix for
a screenshot of the Bellevue Tax Form. The appendix also contains samples of the worksheets, starting with Figure 18: Sample
