3. 3 IMPORT TEMPLATE The Import Template is an Excel file with four sheets that populate the following areas of the UTP App: #FIN48#: Core Data about the issue at the Ending of the period #FIN48_LIKELIHOOD#: Probability Matrix for issues at the Ending of the period #FIN48_OTHER#: Other Data about the issue at the Ending of the period #FIN48_CUSTOM#: Custom Rate Table for issues at the Ending of the period Note: These tab names can not be changed. If the tab names are altered, the import will fail. Note: A new import template is in use with Version 4.0 of the UTP App. To modify your existing spreadsheets, you can run the �Import_Spreadsheet_Update� macro:

4. 4 #FIN48#CORE DATA The first Seven columns contain the issue�s defining characteristics Unit Code (Column A) The unit codes must exist in Admin Center > Components > Manage: Units. (Codes are case sensitive!) Jurisdiction (Column B) The jurisdiction codes must exist already. (Codes are case sensitive!) Either Pre-Defined or User Defined states can be entered. Year Issue Arose (Column C) The year that the issue was (or should have been) reported on a provision or return. The format should have 4 digits (e.g. 2007). Dataset Year (Column D) The year that the issue was identified for FIN 48. The format should have 4 digits (e.g. 2007). Type of UTP (Column E) There are three choices: Permanent Difference, Temporary Difference or Tax Adjustment. The code for a Perm Diff is FIN48PD. The code for a Temp Diff is FIN48TD. The code for a Tax Adj is FIN48TA. UTP Code (Column F) The UTP codes must exist in Admin Center > Components > Manage: Permanent Differences, Temporary Differences or Tax Adjustments.

16. 16 IMPORTING THE TEMPLATE INTO THE UTP APP In the Uncertain Positions section or the My TaxStream section, click Import A pop-up will appear for you to browse for the Import Template Click Import when you have made your selection If the import is successful, you will see a screen similar to the following. Click Done to return to the UTP App

17. 17 IMPORTING THE TEMPLATE INTO THE UTP APP If the import is not successful, you will see a screen similar to the following notifying you of where errors occurred in the import file Click View Errors so you are able to view more detail about the errors Correct the errors on your import template When you have finished modifying your import template, Save it, and click Re-Import to try the import again

18. 18 IMPORT TEMPLATE TIPS Formatting: Make sure all cells in Excel are formatted as Text Keep in mind that the codes and other entries are case sensitive Enter all tax rates as decimals � up to 4 decimal places Probability percentages should be entered as whole numbers Do not put formulas in any cells (Copy and Paste Special: Values to fix this) Interest: If you import in interest start and end dates, you will need to Recalculate Interest before it displays correctly Uncertain Positions screen > Action Menu > Recalculate Interest > Select your positions and click Go Beginning Balances: To populate the UTP App with your beginning balances, import in the beginning balance information and roll the dataset over. Before rolling the dataset over, make sure the information you have imported in is all correct. Status: The UTP App will not allow you to Add a line item through import with a status of anything other than �New� Once an item exists in the UTP App, you can change the position�s status through an import. Modifications cannot be imported for positions which are final. (SET-F, NLU, EXP) Positions cannot be settled on import. The workflows must be used.

19. 19 IMPORT TEMPLATE TIPS Modifying a Position: If you change data in any of the first 7 columns of data (columns A thru G) a new position will be added � the existing position will not be updated The first 7 columns of data define the issue and any changes in these columns will create an entirely new issue Labels, Notes & Attachments: Labels, Notes & Attachments can not be imported into the UTP App These have to be manually appended in the UTP App Probability Table: If you entered �y� in column O on #FIN48# you should complete the #FIN48_LIKELIHOOD# sheet. The total of the % should equal 100% - any less or more will make the import fail. If you import without the #FIN48_LIKELIHOOD# sheet after entering �y� in column O on #FIN48#, UTP App will populate zero as the amount expected to be sustained and the probability chart will be all zeros. Duplicate Positions If a duplicate row is found, all matching rows will fail on import. View Errors will provide you with more information regarding which position was duplicated in order to easily fix the issue.

20. 20 COMMON ERROR MESSAGES Badly Formatted Record: Check amount fields for commas or typos Could not find associated contingency item: The corresponding row on another tab failed. Correct all errors and re-import. Character to number conversion error: Check formatting of cells (should all be text) and ensure you�ve entered in data in the stated format. Category not assigned to Unit Component > Unit assignment is being enforced on import Assign your components (categories) to your units in the Admin Center: Components
