If you mean the preparer file, that needs to be downloaded/installed for each year. It doesn't *transfer* from year to year.

If you mean the 'preparer' assigned to each client in Screen 1; I don't know as I am the only 'preparer' in my small office AND I've only transferred a handful of clients so far.

In 2018 - Settings > Transfer prior year settings.... > Probably best to just Select All and that will bring 2017 forward. Be sure to check the folder shown at the bottom.
