Income Tax Preparation

Hi Hans,
Welcome to the Reckon Community.
Accounts Business allows you to link your accounts to relevant lines on various income/business tax forms.
Select your appropriate tax form at Company > Company Information > Tax Form Used.
Then edit your accounts and on the Tax Line Mapping line, assign it to a question and box.
You can then view results at Reports > Accountant > Tax Preparation.
Please Note, this feature is in no way an authorised tax return schedule and should not replace your official business/income tax return method. This is only a tool to assist you in the preparation of your business/income tax return.
regards,
John

I have set this up and now doing a tax return for a company and double checking. One question that probably applies to other areas as well, Accounts Receivable would be a C, but then one needs the total of Current Assets as well, and if all other Current Assets is a D, then it won't include the Accounts Receivable/Debtors amount.
Problem arises because you can only put in one code. One to be aware of.

@Jean Yes, unfortunately, that is the case.
Although also a Current Asset, Accounts Receivable has its own specific label on the Tax Return (at Box C: Trade Debtors as you've noted) hence it is not able to be included at Box D: Current Assets as well.
It's important to note that the Tax Return mapping is just an additional "guide" feature from the original Intuit QuickBooks days & it is not recommended to map Balance Sheet accounts due to these limitations.
Note the type of tax form selected in the Setup interview also determines which tax lines are in the available dropdown list.
