The dashboard gives our tax professional partners an overview of their business. The dashboard is updated daily, providing a quick overview as the season progresses. The location of components on the dashboard may changed based on time of year and what information is most important to view daily.

 

Search for a taxpayer

One of the biggest time saving features of the TPG dashboard is the taxpayer search. Start entering a client's SSN and when your client's information is displayed, select your client to quickly find an overview of their account.
