1.3.1   Period Settings

2.  SME template

2.1    CTM Changes

CTM forms are updated per SARS 2024 tax year requirements.

 

2.2    Improvements

  • Statement of profit and loss – Correct the header to show correctly on the Statement of profit and loss as well as the index
  • Nigeria Companies Act - Update the Companies Act for Nigeria to be Companies and Allied Matters Act of Nigeria, 2020
  • Event after reporting period and going concern - The buttons are updated so that the two notes work independently when a selection is made

 

3.  PI Score

The PI Score calculation in document 01.25 PI Score Calculation - Engagement Type and Basis of Preparation and the Mandatory page relevant to iXBRL, were previously based on post-adjustment figures.

In this release, document 01.25 has been updated to use pre-adjustment figures, as the engagement type and basis of preparation are determined at the beginning of the engagement. Please note that to automate the figures in 01.25, you must open document 10.20 Engagement Evaluation and document 10.60 Overall Materiality Assessment.

As a result, the PI Score calculation on the Mandatory page will differ from 01.25, as the Mandatory page will continue to use post-adjustment figures consistent with the final Financial Statement values.

 

4.  Caseware Working Papers 2024.00.164.06

The following describes the features and fixes included in Working Papers 2024 V1 and related products.

4.1    Features

4.1.1.   Xero online (Direct) import

Working Papers now fully supports imports from Xero Online. You can import your Xero trial balance and general ledger details from the Import - Accounting Software dialog without having any licencing errors using the “Xero Online(Direct)” option.

 

4.1.2.   Protection setup

Split the Lock Client File/Unlock Client File group right into separate Lock Client File and Unlock Client File rights to provide more control over these operations. 

 

4.1.3.   Licencing

Added a warning dialog that displays when a Working Papers license is nearing its expiration date

 

4.1.4.   Hybrid cloud

Increased the duration that Working Papers will attempt to communicate with Cloud to prevent the process from timing out before completion. 

 

4.1.5.   XBRL

CaseView now supports multiple XBRL entry points. In the new Select Entry Points dialog, you can add taxonomies and select the applicable entry points to use from the list. 

 

4.2    Fixes

4.2.1.   Imports

Importing data from AccountView into an engagement that was rolled forward does not clear the previous year-to-date (YTD) value. 

 

4.2.2.   SmartSync

Documents locked for exclusive use may not indicate that they are ‘Locked’ when opened by the exclusive user, or ‘Read-only’ when opened by other users. The locked/read-only status was still applied, however. 

 

4.2.3.   Licencing

Working Papers reports a time tampering issue and locks the application when the system time has not been modified. 

 

4.2.4.   XBRL

Inline XBRL and non-XBRL-tagged HTML files do not preserve optional hyphens (also known as soft hyphens, which are used to break words across lines) in the export file. 

 

4.2.5.   User interface

Some Working Papers fonts and CaseView icons do not properly scale to monitor resolution. 

 

4.3    Known issues

CaseView frequently displays script errors when opening documents on Windows 11 

Solution: Windows H2V2 – Error Executing Scripts
