With the latest version of the software, users have been reporting an error message and have been unable to print certain T2 forms and efile T2 returns because of a date format error
Profile has provided the solution of going into your Region settings in your Windows system and changing the date format there.
Yes, this is a temporary work around solution but it is not an acceptable final solution.
I am a proficient and speedy keyboardist. I know the ins and outs of many softwares and how to quickly input data. By changing the Region date format, this changes the manner in which I have to enter dates in other software, and here I am particularly thinking of Quickbooks and Excel.
Changing the Region date format massively screws up how I enter dates in those and other software.
Intuit Profile should not be dictating how I set the settings in my computer
For the moment, I can change the Region date format to print the few forms I need from the T2 module and efile, and then change it back after I have printed those forms, or efiled.
But a long term solution must be found so that I do not have to do this.
This IS a situation that would require me to change tax preparation softwares.
So the question is, IS Intuit going to correct this problem in a near future update?
Thank you
