Managing Tax Sub-groups

You can add, edit, and delete tax sub-groups in the trial balance section of an engagement. Click a link below to view specific instructions.

Note: The Tax trial balance is not available in consolidated engagements at this time, so tax sub-groups cannot be created for those engagements.

Add a tax sub-group.

1. Click the engagement on the Engagement List page.

   Note: See Using the Engagement List Page for information about using the pagination and search features to find an engagement in the list.

2. Click on the navigation bar and select Trial Balance.
3. Click Add Accounts/Groups in the toolbar.
4. Select Tax Sub-group in the Type box.
5. Select the group for this sub-group.

   Tip: If you enter the index or name for the tax group, the list of groups will automatically filter to include only the groups that match your entered text.

   Note: If you add a sub-group to a property tax group, the sub-group will be available for all properties within that tax group. For example, In the S Corporation tax entity, if you add a sub-group within tax group 816 - Other Form 8825 Deductions, it will be available to use for all the rental properties.

6. If needed, modify the index. The index must be unique within the selected tax group and between 1 and 99.
