Backups of client data in CSA Before you retrieve data from the client’s export file, we recommend that
you first make a backup copy of your CSA client data. Next, make sure
you’ve set the CSA general ledger and payroll periods to the appropriate
dates relative to the client data you are about to retrieve.
Payroll transactions are transferred into CSA based on the option
selected on the PayCheck tab of the Setup / Miscellaneous Information
dialog in Accountant’s Assistant, either the current payroll period ending
date or the month of the check date.
Note: If client data from a previous retrieval still exists in your
Accountant’s Assistant program, the program will display a message
prompt asking if you want to remove the old client data and continue
with the procedure or to discontinue the retrieval process.
