NetAsset - Tax Depreciation Method Import Tool

Overview

The NetAsset Automatic Import of Tax Depreciation Methods feature enables users to import tax depreciation methods directly into NetAsset without manual CSV imports. This streamlined approach is designed for users leveraging alternate schedules or the Tax Complete add-on within NetAsset. Previously, users needed to manually import both the depreciation methods and associated table lines, which was time-intensive. The new tool provides a faster, automated way to complete this process.
