  Subject: Update Disk, Version 10.5

  Dear TaxTime USA, Inc. Customer,

  • This update addresses the problem of the software losing its registration from time to time. If you are experiencing this problem
    please also check to see that your Start In and Target folders of the short cut are the same, as this will also cause this
    problem if they are different.

  • Also includes Update 10.3: After selecting a letter to edit the system does not allow the user to print the instruction letter.

  • Also includes Update 10.2: If you import data from either of our programs listed above the grand total amounts for cost and
    assessed value are not computing in PPT Express. Also, the approximate tax is not being calculated. This problem is
    limited to only files being imported from the programs above. This update fixes this problem so that import files from Business
    Startup Express or MI Sales Tax Express compute grand totals and approximate annual tax properly. To fix existing import
    files that have already been imported either delete the file and re-import or go into the new file and go to the Summary Tab
    and enter 0 on line 16a and 16b. The 0 will not display on the screen but the Totals will calculate and print.

    This update fixes this problem so that new files that are imported will show the Page 1 totals.  

    To fix existing new files that have been imported either delete the file and re-import or go into the new file and go to the
    Summary Tab and enter 0 on line 16a and 16b. The 0 will not display on the screen but the Totals will calculate and print.

  Subject: Update Disk, Version 6.3

  Dear TaxTime USA, Inc. Customer,

  This update fixes the following in the program:

  • The Annual Return Form 165 has been updated by the State of Michigan.  The only major difference is the inclusion of line 3a for use tax on services, which was repealed.  This update allows user to put in an amount on the Annual Return for this line if needed and makes other minor cosmetic form changes.  This updated form is not required to be used so if any Annual Returns were previously filed the State has told us there is no need to re-file.

  Program: Sales Tax Express

  Subject: Update Disk, Version 5.3

  Dear TaxTime USA, Inc. Customer,

  This update fixes the following in the program:

  • Annual Return, line 14 – Use Tax Purchases. If you enter an adjustment to this line on the Annual Return the
    program incorrectly computed the use tax at the rate of .6 instead of the correct rate of .06. This update fixes this problem.

     

  • Also includes 5.2 update: Occasionally there is a rounding problem when when computing Use Tax column line 8 of the
    Annual Return. The value printed may be .01 off, resulting in a possible .01 balance due or over payment on the annual
    return. This update fixes this potential problem.

  • Also includes 5.1 update: If a user does not enter the last four digits of a Zip Code after the hyphen in the General Info screen,
    it would drop the 5th digit of the Zip Code on the City/State/Zip line in the Bottle Return Form.

  Subject: Import from all Depreciation Programs

  Dear TaxTime USA, Inc. Customer,

 

  • If you import data from a depreciation program and create a new client file the Total Cost and Assessor Calculation Totals (Preparer Copy) on Page 1, below line16 does not calculate or print.  When importing into an existing file the totals do calculate and print.

    To fix existing new files that have been imported either delete the file and re-import or go into the new file and go to the Summary Tab and enter 0 on line 16a and 16b.  The 0 will not display on the screen but the Totals will calculate and print.
