Question

Trial Balance Import in Intuit ProConnect

Why is there no trial balance import option for a business returns in Intuit ProConnect?  If Lacerte and ProSeries have this feature, one would think that ProConnect also has this capability.  Our company switched from LaCerte to ProConnect thinking a cloud based product would be more 'automation ready'. I spent an entire day on the phone last week with both the ProConnect team and QBO team trying to import a very very simple trial balance. Neither team could  help me, even with screen sharing. Neither team could direct me to an import template or a link with instructions. We tried every option possible, with tax mapping inside QBO, cleaning up my data inside the excel, reformatting to .csv...nothing. 

- The ProConnect link below establishes what data can be imported, along with specific worksheet templates. I find nothing for a business trial balance.

Hoping that someone on this forum has experience with business returns and importing with ProConnect.

Hi, ProConnect does not have the Trial Balance Feature that exists for our desktop programs Lacerte and ProSeries.  ProConnect has a "Prep for Taxes" function that links solely to Quickbooks Online Accountant and can be used at the end of the year to do a transfer of the end of year balance sheet information.  Please see this article for instructions on how to use that feature: Prep for Taxes - Where Quickbooks Accountant and ProConnect Tax Meet .
