Temporary Differences / Book-Tax Basis

In the
DATA ENTRY
list, you select the
Temp Diffs - Book/Tax Basis
component to enter federal and jurisdiction data.

General Information

Here are some points to consider before selecting data entry fields:
  • The
    Activity
    ,
    Deferred
    , and
    Balance Sheet Only
    column amounts impact the tax provision differently.
  • Each temporary difference line defaults to being tax effected using the unit rate.
  • You have the ability to enter beginning and ending balances for both book and tax balances. ONESOURCE Tax Provision calculates the tax adjustment by taking the difference between the beginning and ending balances.
  • Tax Basis Temporary Difference pages let you to enter amounts as purely tax balances, with or without book or net of book.
  • To use the same
    Code - Description
    for multiple line entries, you must use a different
    Tag
    letter or
    Class/Subclass
    combination for each line.
  • To use default unit rates, enter U in the rate columns when importing.
The following information is not applicable for the
Interim Forecast
, and
Estimated Payments
datasets.
  • Two tabs are available:
    DETAIL
    and
    ROLLFORWARD
    . You can add and edit data in both sections.
  • Administrators use Dataset Parameters Reference to control the information in this page. The DEFAULT_TD_TAB controls which tab(s) you see, and RESTRICT_TD_TABS controls who can enter data within the tab(s).
  • The system computes the Tax-Book Difference using the book and tax amounts in the
    DETAIL
    tab. This information flows to the
    ROLLFORWARD
    tab.
