Create an Action Items PDF

When you send electronic versions of tax returns or organizers to your client, you can create a separate PDF attachment to call attention to pages. These are mostly pages where you need a client's signature, like bank authorization forms or consent forms.
This Action Items PDF will only create for the organizer if you're sending it to them via email, PDF to file, or Web. It'll create for tax return if you're e-filing it and sending an electronic copy to your client via email, PDF to file, or Web.
Before you can create an Action Items PDF, you'll want to make sure you've included the correct documents in it.
