Regional Training
We expect another full house for our next Regional Training scheduled May 1st and 2nd in Chicago, IL. As with last year, those attending will be learning about the many product enhancements recently released and receive an update on our current 2018 enhancement and new product plan.
The 2018 enhancement and new product plan continues our historic track record of investment in the Square1 Credit Suite with exciting plans for AgExam enhancement, data extract tool to fully support ALLL-CECL calculations, and finally our electronic tax return reader which we are calling the Smart Electronic Tax (SET) Reader. The SET reader will be an optional add-on module to be licensed separately. It will be able to work with any tax return PDF produced by an accounting tax package system to read and ingest the tax return data automatically without keying in the information.
We are excited about these planned enhancements and delivering your requests and by the delivery of new products with our SET Reader to make your job more efficient. If you are attending the conference this year, I always advise our customers to come prepared to not just learn about the new functionality but to focus on the current Square 1 system functionality. Look for ideas to increase utilization or to maximize efficiency that the system tools can provide if properly implemented and used.
