I, and others have suggested this as it would be a hugh time saver rather than having these values looked up and entered manually.
As with most other suggests in the past it is mostly ignored as if the suggestion thread is for users only. I have downloaded the beta version and this feature is not included.
I will ask again, are there plans to have the feature which will insert the amount for the FMV column on the CAIS form (calculated only by the published FMV by CAIS on the commodities using the unit column for unit size values) and leaving the non published blank and the ability to override for various reasons that maybe required and adding to the working version in the next month or so??
PLEASE have somebody respond one way or the other.
Thanks in advance

Amen,
Fields were pricing wasn't available could possibly even be flagged with a warning easy enough and make it easy to quick scan through.
After the issues we dealt with last year such as having some fields carry over to the partner only corrected after the end of the tax season it leaves one wondering. For now we have headed back to our own system which does the following for us; and if we can do it, I see no reason why Profile shouldn't be capable of it, other then for lack of funding in that area of development.
- Revise the inventory lists to only show applicable inventory under crop/livestock.
- Unless I am wrong on this, don't have Profile handy here, but I think everything shows up in each list.
- Provide pricing based on the code, year end, and location of farm.
- Calculate P1/P2 pricing (easily done once the above is possible as just an opening/closing price)
- Carry this data forward so it only has to be included for one year.
If worksheets were included the following should be easily possible:
- Calculate any structural changes based on historical production data, and location of farm.
- Worksheets could easily provide a current year margin, which is possible now by creating a template with the formulas.
- Currently if one exports the data you can have margins automatically calculated if the client was with you for the previous x years. This can also be setup to remove income (government programs) which aren't allowable for those years and generate an accurate margin.
Enough for now... :)
