Tips

  • Click the word Client ID, Name, or Entity in the title bar of the list to sort the client listing by that characteristic.
  • Use the Focus group box at the bottom of this dialog to limit the clients who appear in the client listing by entity type and/or preparer/reviewer/staff.
  • If you have transmitted an electronic return for a client, you cannot rename the client's ID until you have received all of the acknowledgments.
