ProSeries houses a powerful in-program tool designed to assist with navigating forms, worksheets, and statements.

This tool is often used to find the point-of-entry for a specific item you are trying to report, or more broadly, to source the necessary form to file a certain type of activity.

In order to get the best results possible, a best practice would be using search terms that are aligned with form terminology. For example, if you are looking to report something "tax-free," the optimal search term would be "nontaxable."
