New for Tax Year 2020

Web Organizer

For the tax applications, you will experience changes that we have made to update the screens for a more standardized and modern look and feel.  The navigation, screen locations, and data entry are all the same.

Differences between Web Organizer and Classic Organizer

After you delete a navigation node item, you will see a blank screen on the right.

When you right-click and select Related Items, the Web Organizer shows only actionable items. The Classic Organizer showed items even if you could not navigate to the landing page.

You have the option to send feedback. Go to the Help menu and select the feedback option to send an email with specific screen information from the server. This will help us better understand your feedback.

You only need to single-click to open a folder on the navigation tree. Double-clicking is no longer necessary.

FileCabinet CS Integration

We will not support integration with FileCabinet CS for Tax Year 2020 and subsequent tax years.
