I understand if I haven't used the program in a while, you should verify that I am the user. And I understand if I have left it open and not moved the mouse in hours. But when I have been in and out of files all day and back and forth through files and different years and individual and partnership files, it gets old very quickly to have to grab the cell phone every time I switch files and get the code and type it in as well as the password.Security is important, but let's consider here whether someone is really going to steal all the files or all the information just because you require an extra step. People also leave their cellular telephones lying around on their desks at work, so that's not going to guarantee safety.
I know its a little early in the season and I assume the ProSeries gurus in the tech engineering are wrestling with this issue. In 2022 The Colorado Legislature passed a new bill which the governor signed into law. Regarding the SALT Parity Act. With a new election whereas passthrough entities canCO SALT PARITY ACT pay the Colorado Income Tax at an entity level and avoid passing through the tax to their member/shareholders. BTW, the tax is only 4.4% instead of the 5% flat tax rate. I won't go into huge detail here, but it seems to me that the ProSeries version of this is running a bit short of the software performance we are used to. I am completing this for a partnership so my references are to the Colorado DR 0106 and associated forms. Appropriate changes should aslo be made for the Sub S version. Why dont you have a check the box election, so that it populates form DR 1705 SALT Parity Act Election Form automatically and completes the tax calculation for you on form 106 part III?It should also automatically enter the SALT election income onto a line 7 Other Deductions, so it reduces the 'normal' taxable income passthrough. and of course, add appropriate notations to the Colorado k-1 forms.All of this should be EASILY put into the electronic filing program. I know you have to work with CO-DOR on this but, they are no dummies. Please contact me if you have any questions. But please do a little research yourselves as to how you think this should work.

I know there is a jump to input from the form view... how about jumping to the form (and having the affected line highlighted) from an input field? That would make the software much easier to use/navigate, particularly when there are multiple similarly names data entry fields on one screen.
It would be nice to be able to click on the "O" for an override field and have it jump to the field it is overriding. For example... in the state apportionment screen for an entity return... if you could click on the "O" for wages and the program would carry you to the original data entry field. I don't know if the system wants me to break down wages by state on the Schedule A input, or if there's another location this is going to override.
It would be nice to offer integrations with a DMS other than SmartVault... we use FileCenter and although getting returns into it is not difficult, it would be nice to take advantage of their portals, etc
Could the codes on the Sch D input be modified to correspond with the codes that show up on the return? Right now, for codes A and D on Sch D/Form 8949, you leave the input field blank; enter a 1 for codes B and E; and enter a 2 for codes C and F.Why can't we just enter A-F here? That would more appropriately correspond with the 1099-B information preparers have in front of them.
When entering withholding (Box 4) in 1099-NEC Worksheet that is linked to Schedule C it does not flow automatically to Form 1040, Line 25b. We have to manually open Tax Payments Worksheet to verify it is showing on Line 13, no entries needed just opening the Tax Payments Worksheet triggers the amount to flow correctly to Form 1040, Line 25b
For instance changing the category, activity or situs (State) for multiple assets by selecting them, change the desired field then a confirmation asking if you want to make the same change on all assets.As a new user imported assets on multistate returns in a huge mess to correct a few hundred assets that imported with no category or situs.Or make the CTRL + Down Arrow command work without pressing enter and having to back the cursor up each time.
My client has loaned money to his company over two tax years. I was entering them all as one loan. He also was repaid some of the loan in the 2nd tax year. Entering all the activity as one loan over two years triggered a Form 4797 gain which was incorrect. Jeff from Qbooks helped me figure it out
Proforma the custom database reports that are created each year into the next year.
The new calculator set up SUCKS! I want to be able to hit control A, run my numbers, hit "P," and paste the number in the line on the return. Then I should be able to hit ESC., to close the calculator back down. The calculator for 2020 and before worked perfectly for years and years. Then you guys decided to change it for no good reason and now it sucks. Please revert back to the old calculator so we can move quicker without having to use a mouse.
Currently the 8082 for partnerships are only able to be accessed if the partnership has a passthrough entity so this precludes partnerships which don't from filing the form. This is important for those BBA partnerships that need to amend the return by using the 8082 instead of the 1065-X, such as those that need to for the Employee Retention Tax Credit received. The 8082 is supposed to be used for partnerships that need to amend the 1065 even if they have no passthrough K-1 entity investments per the form instructions, but Lacerte won't allow it as it asks for the passthrough entity's name and EIN causing e-file critical diagnostics. The 8082 input should not be tied to a passthrough entity screen, unless that entity has a passthrough K-1 that needs to be corrected.
