  New client number range |
This refers to the range of client numbers that DT Max will assign
your new clients when you create new client files.
If you run DT Max on more than one computer, or if you have more than
one DT Max databases on your computer, it is important that you set
different, non overlapping ranges of numbers for new clients,
for each computer or database.
This will ensure that new clients added to any of your databases have
a unique client number. If you wish to merge different databases
together, there will be no risk of different clients having the
same client number.
If you efile, it is also essential that all clients have a unique client
number since the client number is used to build the efile document control
number (DCN) for the client. The CRA will reject any client with
a duplicate DCN.
When selecting a client number range, simply enter the lowest number
you want as the start number and the highest as the end number, keeping
the above rules in mind.
The range set pursuant to these directions only applies to new client
numbers generated automatically by DT Max. You can always select a client
number yourself when creating a new client file. In such a case, however,
be sure to use a client number that will not conflict with those used
in your other databases.
