Scheduling

You can create and schedule jobs to perform on a specific date and time or in recurring patterns. Batch Manager allows you to perform tasks unattended, schedule repetitive tasks to perform without further intervention, and schedule tasks to run during times when resources are most available.

Authorization Summary

After selecting returns for a calculation or return print job, you can display an authorization summary to review the number of required authorizations for each tax product before submitting the job.

Organizers

Open the Correspondence Manager window to create, edit, and import organizer letter templates for Individual and Fiduciary returns.

Reports

Batch Manager reports include job details that can be reviewed, printed, or exported for all completed, stopped, and terminated jobs. Job Detail reports are useful for locating any errors or problems that may have occurred during the processing of batch jobs.
