2. The New  Document Import dialog will appear (there will be three), select the options and populate the fields accordingly. 

  • Tick the box Roll Forward from Template box to enable the upload of template document data.
  • Template document data – click on the three dots at the end of this field to browse to the XML file for the company's comparative year accounts. This gives the user the ability to use last years tagged accounts as a template for the current year.
  •  Apply text tagging from template – tick the box if you wish the system to apply the previous year’s textual tags to the current year accounts. The page tolerance will allow the system to look over a set number of pages for the same information.

4. Once the steps above are completed, the system will switch the middle of the screen into dual year view. This view displays the current and comparative accounts side by side and enables the user to drag and drop tags between the two years.

  •  Use the bars on the left of each view to align the pages.
  • The bar in the current year view will align both views.
  • Locate what you are looking for on the left and then use the bar on the template document view to find the same information.
