Automatic Repost
- Disable repost when changing rates, report setup, and account types: Working Papers will not automatically repost all accounts each time certain modifications are done. A manual repost will be required, found under Tools | Repair File.
Split-up
- Display unbalanced message for current year: Displays a warning when exiting the split-up function while there is a non-zero difference between the Account Setup balance and the split-up total for the current year. The warning allows users to reconcile the differences before returning to the Account setup.
- Display unbalanced message for prior year: Displays a warning when exiting the split-up function while there is a non-zero difference between the Account Setup balance and the split-up total for the prior year. The warning allows users to reconcile the differences before returning to the Account setup.
- Display unbalanced message for budget: Display a warning when exiting the split-up function while there is a non-zero difference between the Account Setup balance and the split-up total for budget amounts. The warning allows users to reconcile the differences before returning to the Account setup.
- Allow deletion of split-up accounts with balances: Allows sub-accounts formed by split-up to be deleted even when they have balances. Working Papers will revert to the total balance.

Synchronization
- Enforce exclusive use of documents: Opening a document locks it from access by other users until closed. For more information, see Locking documents for exclusive use.
- Do not allow synchronization: Files are not synchronized and cannot be published to the server. This option is only available if the file has not yet been synchronized.
Default Document Synchronization Behaviour
For more information on this feature, see Sync On Demand.
- Automatic: Documents are synchronized by the SmartSync engine automatically.
- On Demand: Document changes are saved locally and must be synchronized manually. Manually synchronizing with the parent file sends the last saved version of the document.
- Never: Document changes are saved locally. Manually synchronizing with the parent file excludes all documents from the Synchronize All Documents command.
Networking
- Do not refresh open documents when changes are made by other users: Turns off live updates for documents (excluding CaseView documents).
Issues
-
Modify issues created by other users: Allows users to modify issues created by other users if they are assigned to the issue.
Note: Only available if protection is not enabled.
-
Do not display cleared trial balance and automatic document line issues: Allows users to hide any cleared issues annotations.
Consolidation
- Do not perform external entity check when opening client files: Prevents Working Papers from locating child entity files in an externally consolidated file. This check is normally performed to verify if contents have changed and warn that a reconsolidation may be necessary. In an environment where the connection to the child entity files may be slow or intermittent, selecting this option can improve performance when opening consolidated files.
CaseView
- Do not flag changes after sign offs: Allows users to flag external and CaseView documents.
Engagement Export
- Display only supported tax codes: Shows tax codes applicable to the tax vendor instead of showing all available tax codes.
- Allow any adjustments to tax export codes in the lockdown file: Allows tax adjustments in a lockdown file.
