Data Import Template: 1065 Rental Template

Click here for the link to the Data Import Templates ZIP file.

The Rental Template import feature can populate many of the fields on the 1065 Rental input screens. This template is exclusively used for the 1065 tax application.

The three components of Rental importing are:

1065_2021_Rental_Template.xlsm

The Rental_Template.xlsm contains the data to be imported into the Organizer. This file is referred to as the Data Import Template and is provided by Thomson Reuters. Data is populated in the Excel files using the Data Import Template as the starting point.

Required Fields for Import on Rental_Template

  • TR_Setup tab
    • Firm ID
    • Account ID
    • Year
    • Tax Type
    • Locator
  • TR_1065_Rental_Detail tab
    • Activity Number
    • Address of Property
  • TR_1065_Rental_Group_Detail tab (only required if group detail will be imported)
    • Activity Number
    • Address of Property

Drop-down Listings

If you have macros enabled, the spreadsheet will have a pop-up dialog when a field is selected that contains a fixed value. The selection will provide a description and, when selected, will write the correct value needed for the tax application to the field.

If you choose not to use the macros in the template, the details for the values needed are available on the TR_1065_Rental_Strings tab.

If improper values are entered, then unexpected results can occur.

Tabs on the Rental Template

Tab 1: TR_Setup

The TR_Setup tab contains header information. These fields are fixed and not variable. The firm ID, account ID, and locator number allow Thomson Reuters to match the Rental Template to your firm’s account. Only the 1065 tax application is available for this import. The tax year begins with 2020 and forward.

If you choose not to enable the macros, you must make sure the column heading is correct for the option you are using.

Tab 2: TR_1065_Rental_Detail

The Detail tab is where the actual data to import is located. There can be multiple rows of data. However, the first and second rows are fixed. The import will use the column descriptions to know where to import the data.

The first two columns must remain as they are. The remaining columns can be moved or deleted to fit your needs.

Subsequent rows will import into a single locator (locator number entered on the TR_Setup tab). Each row will consist of a separate Rental to be imported into the program.

Rental data in the return will be deleted prior to import. If you have data in the return you wish to save, please do an export first for the Rental detail.

An export will pre-populate the required columns on the Detail and Group Detail tabs based upon return data. This can be useful as we have had support calls in the past about how data relates between the Detail and Group Detail tabs. If not correct, it will not import.

Tab 3: TR_1065_Rental_Group_Detail

The Group_Detail tab is where you would input data for group data fields. The first two columns and the first two rows are fixed. You can also import multiple rows of data.

What is Available to Import?

See the TR_1065_Rental_Map and TR_1065_Rental_Group_Map tabs in the template file for details on the column heading name to be used:

  • XrefName
  • Order to Process This Group
  • TypeDesc (type of data for the field)
  • field length that can be imported.

To see what column heading will transfer to which field in the application:

  1. Open the Organizer screen you wish to access.
  2. Then use right mouse click on the field, select Field Info, and use the XrefName detail on the screen.
