When transferring data to a tax application, a unit can be used to designate the input screen location for multiple-unit entities. For example, if you are transferring utilities expenses for a farm to the UltraTax CS Farm input screen and the tax code for the first unit's utilities is 632 and the unit is 1, you would transfer the second unit's utilities with a tax code of 632 and unit of 2. Tax code units should not be assigned to tax codes 88888 or 99999.
  1. From the Setup > Chart of Accounts or Actions > Enter Trial Balance screen choose Edit > Edit Multiple Accounts.
