New (tax) year, new help!

Fixed Assets and UltraTax CS 2023 help is now on Help and Support. We're still moving articles, but you can find most content for the 2023 tax year there. Continue using the Help & How-To Center for tax years 2022 and older.

When you print client input screens, UltraTax CS defaults to printing only those input screens that contain data. Use this dialog to force certain input screens to always print or to exclude certain input screens from ever printing, regardless of whether or not the input screen contains data.

To open this dialog, click the Input Screens button and choose Input Screen Printing in one of the tabs in the Product Information dialog. For example, if you open this dialog via the 1040 Federal tab, you are changing the input screen print collation for all 1040 federal clients.

Note: If you are printing input screens for a single client, you can override the collation you set in this dialog by using the Input Screen Print Options dialog.

Fields & buttons

Lists the application's input screen IDs, descriptions, and the print conditions that have been set for each screen. By default, UltraTax CS prints only those input screens that contain client data.

  • Click the If Data option to have UltraTax CS print the highlighted input screen only if it contains data.
  • Click the Never option to force UltraTax CS to never print the highlighted input screen, even if it contains data.
  • Click the Always option to force UltraTax CS to always print the highlighted input screen, even if it does not contain data.

Note: The collation set here applies to all clients of this entity type. You can select and deselect which input screens to print for the open client. To do so, select File > Print Returns, click the Input screens option, and then click the Options button.
