To enter information specific to each return, use the GBReturn screen. Information entered in the GBGen screen is used for every return generated for the UltraTax CS client.

Federal-to-state input screen and asset module data transfer

If information is transferred from federal input screens or from the asset module to a state input screen, the application shows the transferred data in blue.
If necessary, you can overrule the transferred amount by entering the amount in the box. The application then shows the new amount in black.
note
  • When you overrule a transferred amount, the application doesn't overwrite that amount with subsequent federal-to-state or asset module data transfers.
  • To delete the overruled amount and restore the original transferred amount, right-click the box and select Delete overrule or simply enter the original amount in the box.
  • To confirm the accuracy of the overruled amount, right-click the box and select Acknowledge overruled data. The application then turns off the acknowledge functionality from the right-click menu. To restore the original amount later, you will need to enter it manually.
  • If desired, you can set a user preference to mark boxes for which you overruled the transferred amounts and to list all overruled amounts in the Diagnostics window.

Many data entry boxes provide predefined statements in which you can enter additional information.
