Document Management System

Using state-of-the-art object component architecture, Working Papers can be easily integrated with other software tools. With its powerful document management system, you can organize all documents related to each engagement in one controlled area – whether documents are created with Working Papers or with other software applications such as CaseWare IDEA, Microsoft Word, Excel, PDF and scanned documents.

Trial Balance, Write-Up, Financial Statements and More

The core of Working Papers' database system is a highly flexible trial balance with a detailed general ledger system. With point and click reading of native files from most accounting software packages, data can be directly imported into the trial balance. You can also choose to import general ledger data for detailed analysis.

Working Papers' built-in drag and drop mapping system allows you to assign your clients' accounts to your firm’s standard map numbers quickly. By assigning these map numbers, all other properties of an account, such as lead sheet, ratio class, tax codes, etc. are automatically completed. This enables the automatic export of tax information to your tax software. As the map numbers are common to all clients and independent of the client's chart of accounts, firm standardization is facilitated and the speed and accuracy with which you can complete the engagement is significantly increased.

Built for Today's Demanding Requirements

Issues Management Issues can be created and assigned to any document in the client file. Using issues management allows users to track and control further work that needs to be done on any or all portions of the file.

Version Control - History and Milestones

Working Papers has two tools to make controlling and reviewing changes to the information in your client file easier and more efficient:

History Events – you can set Working Papers to record a history event whenever specific events occur in your client file.

Milestones – a milestone differs from a history event in that the history event records details of the action, such as time and date, while a milestone is a recording of the content of the document at that point in time.

Archiving Your Client File

This process allows you to clear unwanted documents, issues and annotation from a client file. The Archive wizard automates the process of file clean up at the completion of the engagement, prior to performing year-end close. Archiving the file clears any issues not set to archive; deletes any document where the Archive checkbox has not been selected; deletes all annotation references to documents that have been deleted as part of the Archive process and, optionally, clears History or Milestones from the file.
