    Cleaning up Table Editor

    Justin98

    Over time, the table editor that puts in all the information of payers has gotten pretty full and needs to get cleaned up.  My question is, If we go in and delete or clean up the data in the table editor, will it just repopulate as returns are rolled over or will it remove the data from the rolled over.  For Example, say in the W-2 names I have "Bank of America" and there is another one with  "Bank of America NA". What happens when I remove one from the table?  Will it remove it from the preformed return or will it just add it back to the table editor from the preformed return.  

    Hopefully my question is not to confusing

    In theory, neither of those things will happen. Cleaning up the table editor has no impact on existing entries, even if proforma'd. Proforma-ing returns has no impact on the table editor.

    What does have an impact on the table editor is clicking inside one of the fields.
