NEW: Tasks

Tax season at your firm, with nothing slipping through.

Every individual return (1040, state, extension) runs its own loop: collect documents → prepare → review → fix → file. Track them in spreadsheets and email and it soon becomes unclear who is doing what, and what is still missing.

Sound familiar?

No quick way to see who is working on which client's return
Unclear whether documents are complete, or where the latest draft is
Reviews pile up; send-back notes are scattered across email and chat
Untouched returns surface right before the October 15 extension deadline

How Tasks keeps it moving

Assign

Create a task per client with assignee, due date, documents needed and reference files. Assign the same work to several people at once.

Work

Assignees see a red count of open tasks in their menu. Drafts and receipts are uploaded straight to the task.

Review

When done, send it for review. The reviewer's menu shows the count too.

Done / send back

Approve to close it, or send it back with a note. Every step stays in the task's history.

↺ Sent back? Fix it and send it for review again

📋

Board by status, table by person

See everything in columns — to do, in progress, sent back, in review, done — with overdue items in red. Jump from per-person counts to that person's list.

📨

Collect questionnaires and documents in the app

With the tax questionnaire app, clients answer questions and upload W-2s and 1099s from their phones. Your firm tracks progress and downloads the answers (CSV) and files.

💬

Team chat, right in the app

“The W-2 arrived”, “What about this expense?” — message teammates in the app and attach the document. A pop-up appears on any screen and you can reply on the spot.

🔍

Search everything at once

Type “tax return” and see the related tasks, questionnaires and how-tos in one place.

Tax questionnaire

Still sending tax questionnaires as paper or Word files?

Send the form, wait for it to come back, read the handwriting, retype it into your tax software — every year. With the tax questionnaire app the whole thing happens on the web.

Before

  • Mail or email a paper / Word questionnaire and wait
  • Illegible answers and back-and-forth over missing items
  • No idea who has replied or how far they got
  • W-2s and 1099s arrive by email, post and photos, all over the place
  • Retyping every answer into the tax software

With the app

  • Clients answer on phone or computer (Japanese or English)
  • Progress on required items, with missing answers highlighted
  • Copy last year's answers and change only what's new
  • Upload documents on the spot, then e-sign and submit
  • Your firm reviews every answer item by item, with CSV and files in one download
📊

Everyone's progress at a glance

See each client's completion by section, signature and submission date — and spot who hasn't started.

🔎

Every answer, in one list

Per client, see each item's answer, uploaded files, USD conversion and last update in a table — or show only what's missing.

📥

Faster data entry

Download an input sheet for ProConnect, a Schedule D CSV, or a ZIP of all data and files.

🔗

Pair it with Tasks

When a questionnaire comes in, assign “Prepare 1040” as a task and review it in the same app.

Live orders

From the table to the kitchen and back, in real time

When guests order from the menu on their phones, the order lands on the kitchen board instantly. Each time the kitchen moves it along — start cooking, ready, served — the guest's screen updates within seconds.

Phone order → kitchen board → guest's screen → daily close (eight scenes on a loop)

Step by step

  1. 1Guest

    Open the menu

    Right from the table, guests open “Order” in the member app or the web menu.

  2. 2Guest

    Pick dishes

    Tap + to add. The total, with tax and service, appears below. Allergy notes too.

  3. 3Guest

    Add the table and send

    Tap “Send order”. For takeout, pick a pickup time. No order-taking or re-keying by staff.

  4. 4Automatic

    It reaches the kitchen

    It chimes into the “New” column, and the guest's screen says it was received.

  5. 5Kitchen

    Tap “Start cooking”

    The card moves to “Preparing”, and within seconds the guest's screen shows it's being prepared.

  6. 6Kitchen

    Mark it “Ready”

    The guest sees it's coming right up, and the floor team sees what's ready to serve.

  7. 7Kitchen

    Mark it “Served”

    The guest sees “Enjoy”, and the card leaves the board so the kitchen can focus on what's next.

  8. 8Office

    Into the daily close

    Totals are split by members, non-members, app payments and unpaid, and can go to QuickBooks at close.

📱

Orders from guests' phones

In the member app or on the web, with table number, pickup time and allergy notes. Staff can enter walk-in orders too.

🔔

A live kitchen board

New orders chime in. Cards change color at 10 and 20 minutes so waiting orders stand out.

✅

One tap updates the guest

The guest's screen changes on its own: cooking, on its way, enjoy your meal.

📊

Straight into the daily close

Served orders become sales, and the daily close can send them to QuickBooks.
