Question

Reject - not current

Once or twice a year - all e-filed returns today rejected upon submission.  Supposed to go into each return and resave since all updates were already done.

Question - since I have hundreds of returns "waiting for 8879" is there a quicker way than going into each file and letting the program update it before e-filing?

Well, you asked so . . .

Select all of the returns you want to recalc (Ctrl-click).  Then print all to PDF.  They will calc before they print (or at least they used to).

Given ProSeries history of creating as many bugs as they fix though, I wouldn't recommend this.  I would check the bottom line of every return to make sure it matches the 8879 (and state) before efiling anything.  It's much easier to do it right than to do it over.

Dont you have to open the file to input the date the 8879 was signed before filing anyhow?

Only on certain entity and state returns.  There is no pink error bar for Fed 8879 so I never have.

I leave the EF PIN date open until I get the 8879s. I thought thats what that date box was for, the date the client signed the 8879.
