Have you incurred fines or penalties because of a missed deadline? Need to prepare tax returns that shouldn't be accessed by others in the company? Is it difficult to keep track of the tax returns that your team is working on? Due Dates and Private Forms from Expert Tax help you solve these problems.
Find out how these two tools make preparing tax forms easier for you.
Due Dates
Due Dates is a tool focused on managing tasks and deadlines to meet filing dates and avoid penalties. The benefits offered by this tool are task management, visibility of filing dates, massive changes, and notifications.
- Task management. Prioritizing tasks is easier with Due Dates. Create tasks, keep track of and collaborate on them with your team, all in one place. Document or comment on tasks and adjust task status, according to the necessary workflow.
- Visibility of filing dates. Due Dates gives visibility of filing dates, making it easier to complete tasks on time. Configure the delivery date for each task and the application will automatically share reminders of them. Additionally, by being able to configure the dates, if an extension has been requested, you can extend the due date of the task.
- Massive changes. Save time with large-scale upgrades. The tax season can have many changes. Due dates grants the necessary tools to make massive changes and "rollovers", where you can select the clients you want to rollover and duplicate the documents for the current taxable year.
