More
robust integration with ProSeries® Tax Software (New!)
Streamline tax preparation by seamlessly flowing information back and
forth between QuickBooks and ProSeries Tax Software (sold separately).
QuickBooks automatically assigns tax line items to the relevant ending
balances from Income & Expense accounts, and now from Balance Sheet
accounts. You can flow the data automatically to the appropriate places
in the ProSeries return without leaving QuickBooks. Or, create a new
return and flow the information from QuickBooks without leaving the
ProSeries application. Make further changes to QuickBooks files; ProSeries

hours of entering the same information in two applications, and your
clients are assured of accurate returns.

orders for items on back order.

up-to-date.
