How to Fix "Unable to Locate the Establishment with the Specified Name"
OSHA cannot connect the uploaded row to an establishment available to your ITA account.
What this means
This usually points to an establishment matching problem, an account assignment problem, or a file that references an establishment that has not been created in the ITA portal.
Why this happens
- The establishment name in the CSV differs from the ITA record.
- The establishment has not been created for the filing year.
- Your user account is not assigned to that establishment.
- A third-party filer is using the wrong account or client profile.
How to fix it manually
- Confirm the establishment exists in the OSHA ITA portal.
- Copy the establishment name exactly into the CSV.
- Confirm your account is assigned to the establishment.
- If you inherited filing work, request transfer or assignment before uploading.
