I have the following issues with your software that probably a lot of other practitioners have the issues also.

  1. When you start your program, either have the password block tell you that you have CAPS LOCK on, or have a option to show what you typed after you typed it. The second one is used in QuickBooks. It has a “Show” button that lets you see what you typed. Go to their programmers and steal it from them.
  2. As your program is loading (during tax season when you have some returns sent electronically and not finally accepted by the taxing agency), you have the program to automatically go out to get acknowledgements. That is a pain, especially when you are going in to get a piece of information for a client. This is also happening after the end of the regular filing season and I don’t have any “Pending”.
  3. While in the dashboard (not in a tax file), THE ADVERTISING OF SERVICES (E.G. ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES) is not needed. Send me an email so I can elect to read the email or let it set for later review.
  4. How can we make the dashboard screens bigger print? In the older software this is really a problem. There has to be a fix for that other than making your universal settings have a large print.

I agree with your suggestion #1.... sometimes I type my password 2,3,4 times before I get it correct.  If I had the option to take a quick peek at what my tired fingers typed the first time, it would be wonderful.

#2 - there is an option to turn off Automatic Acknowledgment Check        go to  Tools>Option>Electronic Filing       down at bottom is a check box

Re. not showing password when typing, it is especially aggravating because I have Parkinson's and my tremors and hand control issues often cause me to inadvertently repeat keys and hit a wrong key, so I end up having no idea what to correct! I don't need to spend more time changing passwords!
