Transfer estimated payments data to ONESOURCE Income Tax

You can transfer estimated payment and extension amounts and payment dates to ONESOURCE Income Tax.
There are 2 types of data transfers:
  • Transfer to Current Year
    - Data you prepare in Estimated Payments transfers to the associated current year return to file your tax return. Once locked, the information appears in the Organizer, on the
    Tax Payments
    worksheet.
  • Transfer to Prior Year
    - Estimated Payments data transfers to the associated prior year return Organizer for the only purpose of electronically filing your estimated payments.

Update data in ONESOURCE Income Tax

If you've previously transferred data from Estimated Payments to ONESOURCE Income Tax, then any time you update or modify the data through data entry, import, and deletion, you'll see a system generated red override indicator. Overridden data always trumps transferred data. If you hover your mouse over the indicator, it reveals the overridden value. To clear the override, right-click on the cell or the override indicator.
