About Statuses
Taxprep for Trusts provides you with statuses (including the return status and the EFILE status), which allow you to keep track of where the returns are currently at in the processing stage.
Statuses, when inserted in the filter or the diagnostic settings, can be used in the Client Manager or in the diagnostic pane to create and generate return follow-up reports.
Client file statuses can be listed in the Client Manager by displaying the properties pane or in an active return by displaying its properties.
The return status allows you to stay informed about which processing stage a return is currently at, from rolling forward to printing the return.
The return status can be manually or automatically assigned as a result of certain operations. For example, you can set Taxprep for Trusts to automatically update the return status after printing the return.
The return status has no effect on the operations performed using of the file and does not limit them in any way. For example, a return with the "Printed" status can be reprinted at any time.
