Question of the Month
Addressing FAQs

I used to be able to access my local hard drives from within my e-Accounting session, but these drives are no longer visible. How do I restore local drive access?

Local drive access or drive mapping, is a great feature that e-Accounting users can use to copy files between their server drives and their local hard drives. Users are prompted to select their drive mapping preferences during their initial login and may be prompted again subsequently, depending on their configuration.

If a user selects “Never ask me again for any application”, their drive mapping selection will be saved and they will not be prompted again, which is very convenient – unless they’ve made the wrong choice...

It's tax season! Who has time to think about expanding? Yet, e-Accounting technology and other computing solutions may be just the adaptations necessary to make tax season easier than ever. And, for those already on the platform, there are more steps you can take to build efficiency.

An easy way to envision how to use technology to serve clients better, save time and money, and grow, is to think in terms of a road map--a journey to your ultimate goal of a streamlined, technology-enhanced firm. We call this goal "e-Enlightenment."

The road map has six stops along the way. Each stop enables you to adopt technology further and proceed to your goal. Whether you're running on the e-Accounting platform or not, you can see a logical process to getting your firm up to speed with 21st century accounting.

Solutions for
Your Tax-Season
Burdens

Ways you can minimize hectic times
in the coming months

The Problem: With tax season here, you may find your attention focused on tax preparation services, leaving client bookkeeping and write-up stacked up until the workload lessens--probably sometime in mid-April. Bookkeeping and write-up work is not difficult to get, but it is hard to do profitably, especially in the crunch time. Also, clients tend to be less than sympathetic when they need their financial data and you don't have time to get to it.

Although more trained personnel would help solve the dilemma, you have less time and resources to focus on getting those new hires operational.

e-Accounting can help your firm solve these issues in a variety of ways.

Some Solutions: First, the online accounting services we offer help get you and your clients to work closer, making data and applications available when and where you both need them. Simply moving some of your clients to an online working model can help eliminate the travel time and redundant data entry you normally experience. The result is you can do more in less time.

Another option is to augment your production capabilities with e-Accounting's outsourced processing services through our Advisor Provider Network partners. These providers can assist you with client accounting, bookkeeping, and income tax preparation – all offered in a secure online working model and performed by qualified outsourcers.

If training (or re-training) staff members is your focus, then get your tax preparation team up to speed quickly and effectively with in-depth online training for TurboTax and ProSeries. Online training, as well as ProUser certification (run from e-Accounting’s application hosting platform), is available at www.turbotax-online.com.
