Display-OV

Display-OV provides the ability to force the display of schedules that are not required for filing. Forms generated through the use of this keyword will have the indicator "(not required for filing)" next to the form title under the "Tax Return" tab.

We provide this option to allow users to check and validate complex calculations. For example, using this option can assist you in determining why a taxpayer is not subject to AMT or other refundable tax credits.

Forms selected through this option will be generated following a recalculation of the taxpayer's income tax return. Please note that the taxation departments have requested that unnecessary schedules not be sent.

Printing-OV

If you need to turn off printing to any particular destination, use this keyword and choose the destination that you do not want printed. This feature is particularly useful in an office where printing and calculation are not handled by the same personnel, and the tax staff needs to control which destinations are printed. In such cases, all print destinations that are sometimes printed are routed to a printer pursuant to the printing destinations setup. Printing of destinations will be controlled by the use of this keyword.

The following options are applicable for the keyword Printing-OV.

  • Disable printing - Revenue Canada
  • Disable printing - Quebec

Print-File

Use the Print-File keyword to print an ASCII (text) file that you have generated with some other software (e.g. accounting package software, a spreadsheet program or a word processor) as part of your client's tax return. The file must be in text format and saved without fonts or formatting (this is often called a print file and frequently has a .PRN or .TXT extension). Enter this keyword and the complete name and path of your file, as in the example:

Print-File "C:\TAX\SMITH\EXPENSE.PRN"

The Print-File entry will be printed as directed in your printing setup.
