Selecting the Correct Fixed Assets CS File for Import

Applicable to GoSystem Tax only.

The Fixed Assets CS application generates GoSystem Tax export files that contains an export (XP) file identifier in the filename and file extensions that denotes the current fiscal year end date (month and year), i.e., .A21 - L21. The alpha characters A-L in the file extension corresponds to months 1-12 (Jan-Dec), and the two-digit number corresponds to the last two digits of the year entered for the current fiscal year end.

How to identify the correct file for import? Select the Fixed Assets CS client data file that contains the export (XP) file identifier in the filename and the correct current fiscal year end file extension. The tax year of the Fixed Assets CS client data file must be applicable to the tax year of the receiving GoSystem Tax locator. This means that a valid Fixed Assets CS client data file for tax year 2021may have a 2021or 2022extension (depending on the file’s FYE date) and would be valid import files for 2021GoSystem Tax locators, only. The aforementioned filename and extension criterion are required to successfully import a Fixed Assets CS client data file into a GoSystem Tax locator.

The following are examples of Fixed Assets CS generated GoSystem Tax export (XP) files extension that may be imported into 2021GoSystem Tax locators.
