Forms and Organizers
under review
Amanda Aparicio
Allow users to create forms that clients can fill out directly within the Financial Cents portal.
Specifically, forms should allow for the creation of tax organizers.

For those in the comments, we are creating a quasi organizer in our tax prep project, in the client to do section. We are manually loading all of the information for each client. (Yes it is a PITA, and yes, it is very time consuming). We will setup the request for information on a specific start date, and then trigger auto-reminders to the clients. We'd rather invest the time (~30 min/ client) now, rather than Jan-April.

When will this be available? When I became a customer in August, I was told this update was slated for November 2025. It's December...
Amanda Aparicio
Jenna Lee Dillon: after conducting our initial research, we decided to delay this project in favor of our new Month End Close feature. We did this because the amount of work to build a
proper
organizer feature meant that we most likely would not have it ready before tax season. That said, we plan to work on this in 2026!J

Amanda Aparicio Clearly a tax organizer would be quite involved. But I'm still having to use Google Forms for client intake questionnaires and then having to manually enter the info in their FC profile. That's absurdly manual. During the sales process, I was assured there would be a form fill feature in the fall (November at the latest) because the current product owner specialized in that type of software. It's super disappointing that it didn't happen as it was communicated to me as a done deal.
Amanda Aparicio
Jenna Lee Dillon, apologies about that! Definitely understand that having a form fill which auto-populates into FC would be a huge time saver! If you'd like, I can add you to our beta testers so that once we have a beta version ready, you can test it out and give feedback. Do note that the first iteration of this tool won't have the "auto-populate information into FC" quite yet as we first will build the form fill part, then add on enhancements afterwards. If joining the beta is still of interest, please do let me know!!

Amanda Aparicio Yes, I'd like to be in the beta. Where would the information "go" if it doesn't auto-populate into FC's About section? As in, where would it be stored? Right now, though it's off-FC, it's very easy for me to access and organize client's answers to Google forms.

Amanda Aparicio well next year is here and now. Jan 2026... So what's the Update or Plan on this improvement? what is the roadmap plan for this.. could you have a working group of users to advise on the exact functions( tax Organizer)? BETA version to Circulate and get FC Users to vote on? Maybe expand it to cover both personal taxes, Corporate taxes , and Estate Taxes As well as Related Consulting/Advisory Services.
Yes related is Tax Planning for Corporate or Personal Taxes. Similar workflows, but much different forms for each type of Tax Files.
Amanda Aparicio
Jenna Lee Dillon, for the first iteration, the information will be stored on the form itself within FC. So there'll be a new section on your account (kinda like with Billing) for "Forms and Organizers", and when you click into the specific form, you'll be able to see the client response. Let me know if you want to schedule a call to see what we currently have planned and give feedback!
Amanda Aparicio
Arlee Hoecherl, we plan on building this out to be ready for next tax season (not the current one)! Let me know if you'd like to be part of the beta testing, and I can reach back out once we're ready to begin that process.

Jenna Lee Dillon
Amanda Aparicio Yes I do want to schedule a call.

Make a typeform type questionnaire to send to clients to ask questions more cleaner than the current client asks. Such as require date, yes or no, etc

Is there any ETA on the organizer? The one through my tax software has already dropped so I was going to start uploading them to FC in lieu of using yours since it isn't ready yet.
Amanda Aparicio
Hello, Lisa Ann Scopel MBA EA! After completing the research for the required components of a worthwhile tax organizer feature, we've determined that this feature won't be ready until next year -- stay tuned!

will this be ready for 2025 tax season?
Amanda Aparicio
Hello, Jodi McDermith! We are currently planning to release this next year! After finishing our research, we realized that there is a LOT to building out this feature, so we need some more time -- stay tuned!

Would be good if you could map answers on the form to update their profile and to update client custom fields
