Interim Datasets

Interim Datasets
 are another type of dataset used in the Tax Provision application. Interim Datasets calculate the interim tax provision based on the annualized effective tax rate. When you create an Interim dataset two datasets appear in My Datasets.
  • Forecast
     - A Forecast dataset calculates the annualized forecasted effective tax rate.
  • Actual
     - An Actual dataset applies the forecast effective tax rate to the actual data.
To Create a New Interim Dataset:
  1. Select
    Administration > Manage Datasets > Interim Datasets
    .
  2. Select
    Create New
    .
  3. Type a
    Name
    .
  4. Select the Interim Approach from the drop-down list. Select
    YTD Basis
     or
    Isolated Basis
    .
    There are two Interim Approaches available when creating Interim Datasets.
    • YTD (Year to Date) Basis
       creates a copy of the previous quarter and advances the data to the next quarter. The YTD Basis time period is a continuum. When the current dataset is advanced to the next period, (instead of seeing an isolated subset of data) YTD Basis will be built of the Actual data.
    • Isolated Basis
       lets the application advance from Period Type to Period. The Isolated Basis takes the ending balances in the current dataset and populates the beginning balances of the next period Actual dataset.
  5. Type a
    Group Rate %
    .
  6. Select
    Classes
     or
    Tags
     to apply the reporting functionality for the dataset.
    • If you want Tags applied to the dataset select
      Tags
       for the dataset.
    • If you want Classes & Subclasses applied to the dataset select
      Classes & Subclasses
       for the dataset.
  7. For Interim Rate Basis, you can choose
    Overall
     or
    Unit by Unit
    .
  8. If you select Unit by Unit, in the True-Up drop-down list, select a true-up unit.
  9. In the
    Fiscal Year
     drop-down list, select a year.
  10. In the
    Period Type
     drop-down list, select a period. You can choose between Quarters, Months and Periods.
  11. In the
    # of Periods
     drop-down list, select the number of periods.
  12. Select
    Save New
    .
  13. Select one of the following options:
    Empty dataset
    ,
    Copy existing dataset
     or
    Roll over from existing dataset
    .
    Three options are available when creating an interim dataset.
    1. Empty Dataset
       - Creates an empty interim dataset that does not contain any data.
    2. Copy existing Dataset
       - Copies an existing interim dataset.
    3. Roll over from existing dataset
       - An existing provision dataset can be rolled over to a sequential period so that the ending balance and rates in the provision dataset become the beginning balances and rates in the new interim dataset. Before rolling over a provision dataset to an interim dataset, be sure to turn off the VA and NOL Automation.
  14. Select
    Yes
    , if the dataset is a Read Only dataset. Otherwise, the default is
    No
     and information can be entered into the dataset.
