Zero tax withheld condition on a W-2 input
I left off the withholding on a client's return, which made the condition zero on a W-2. This was a $10,000 client, including other returns. Because of my mistake, he fired me. I am suggesting two things: 1.) make a diagnostic error when the W-2 withholding is zero so this simple error can be eliminated.
2,) I would like to know how many inputs did i populate in preparing this return. I see in batch mode the lines, but it does not include the client information. Why cant these inputs be counted and totaled somewhere for the entire return?
The client said " you only had to input a dozen or so items ". I would like to have shown him the estimated 300 or so inputs on all his returns.
