TCM0152180 - Notes - recording and viewing: View Household Notes function (Info)

Function VIEW HOUSEHOLD NOTES has two levels of access. Most users will only be able to access household notes to previous year minus one (PY-1). A small number of users will have access to years before PY-1. If you need to check Household Notes for PY-2 and earlier, your manager will know what your local arrangements are.

Both levels of access allow you to view notes concerning a family and will also allow you to view each note in more detail.

Once a note is selected the contents can be viewed in full, including the

  • creation date
  • event date. This is the date the note was entered on the computer
  • effective date. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp effective date must be the date the change or amendment actually happened or the date you were notified of the change. If it isn’t possible to use any of the above dates, then the date the correspondence was received or the tax year the note relates to must be used before the actual text of the note
  • retained marker, if appropriate
  • category.
    Note: »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp dates in the Event Date field and the Creation Date field will always be the same.
