In the File Exchange screen, you will find files such as templates for forecasting, budgeting, and estimating taxes. You can view, download, and print these files at any time.

In addition, you might find files that you will exchange with our firm in this screen. You can download these files to your computer, complete or modify them as necessary, and then upload the updated files to your portal where we can then access them.

For example, if you use CD-based applications such as Client Bookkeeping Solution, Peachtree, QuickBooks, or Business Works, you can exchange bookkeeping data files with us through File Exchange.

In the navigation pane, click the File Exchange link in the Documents section.
