Print a
Blank Organizer

You can print a
Blank Organizer
 for 1040 clients that don't have pre-existing data. Normally, client
Organizer
 pages only print when they have data, which comes from
proforma'd
 information or data entry in the
Organizer
 screens. This feature helps you get around that for new clients. Printing a
Blank Organizer
 can also be helpful when customizing the default
Organizer
. It helps you review each page so you can decide if you want to make changes or exclude it from the package.
note
Blank Organizer
 are only available for 1040 clients. The Excel spreadsheet in the
Business Organizer
 will still generate for a business client that is new to UltraTax CS, but the other
Business Organizer
 pages won't generate. The client can complete the tabs in the Excel spreadsheet and return the spreadsheet to the preparer.
Before you start creating
Organizers
 for your clients, we recommend you review all possible items that could be part of the package. This will help you decide what package you want to use, and if you want to customize anything further.
