Import Ledger Data

This function retrieves ledger data from the Client Accounting module, and maps this information to the Tax Return.

This option is only available if:

  • You have a licence to use Client Accounting.

  • A new Tax Return exists for the current client for the current tax year.

  • The Form Type of the Tax Return is:

    • Company

    • Individual

    • Partnership

    • Trust.

  • The Tax Return status must be “In Progress”.

  • The Tax Return amendment is not lodged.

  • The user has the appropriate security rights to access this function.

Importing ledger data

Any existing values in the Tax Return will be overwritten if replacement values are also present in the ledger.

If any errors are encountered during this process, an error message will be displayed in a pop-up window. No fields will be updated in the Tax Return.

  1. In Client Accounting, create a new Tax workpaper on the ledger for the current year. See Adding workpapers for more information. Only one Tax Workpaper can be added to a given period. The workpaper will be automatically populated with some values from the ledger (based on account group totals). Other fields may also be entered.
  2. Complete the workpaper and generate any necessary reports. Once the workpaper is approved, it will be in a state in the workflow process that enables it to be imported into the Tax Return.

  3. Navigate to the Tax homepage. The Tax Return form for the current year should already be created.

  4. Click Import Ledger Data in the Tasks bar to import fields from the ledger via the workpaper.

  5. Once the process is completed successfully, the Tax Return is displayed in a new window. Complete the Tax return process as per usual.
