Complete the following before you prepare data for conversion.
  • Remove any client passwords: You'll need to remove all client passwords in your old software before you prepare the data to send to the Conversion Team.
  • Rename, renumber, or change client IDs. The Conversion Team will use the same client IDs in your old software. If you need to change any client IDs, do so before sending data for conversion. Client IDs must be unique across all entities in UltraTax CS.
