The options held under the File menu are standard across the product suite and differ only at the Properties and Link level in the Corporation Tax software. The Properties and Link options are described in more detail below.
This changes information about the computation and sets the period end, headings to be printed on the cover page and the computation status. For company computations ending in FY96 and earlier years, the number of associated companies is also entered here. (From FY1997 until FY2004 the number of associated companies is entered on the O schedule. From FY 2004, the number of associated companies is entered on the Marginal relief calculation schedule.)
Each menu option is described in more detail:
Current details
This option allows the user to change the period end information used for tax calculations. Where a mean accounting data election is in place, these dates should be set one year apart - they should not be set to the actual accounting dates.
This option allows the user to type in the status of the computation which can be printed on the cover page if required.
The heading can be annotated to include any necessary changes. This might be particularly useful, for example, where computations are based on draft accounts or accounts for say, a 15 month period.
Data file
This option allows the user to specify the file path of the Taxsoft file from which the present year file has been rolled forward. The user must insert the full file path, including the drive, directories and file name. This is especially useful when a taxsoft file has been removed.
After entering the new file path of the taxsoft file, the user must confirm the link by choosing File, Link, Link control, whereby the user is presented with a list of links. Included in the list are the old file path link to the taxsoft file and the new file path link. The old path must be unchecked and the new link must be checked.
Cortax
This option allows the user to enter the Cortax group and company numbers.
This lists all files which are linked to this file. Under special circumstances you can break the links to files, but care should be exercised and the helpline contacted before this is attempted as a password is required.
