Add variance amounts to diagnostics

Describe your idea. The more information you provide, the clearer picture of your idea we will have.

Diagnostics just show when a return is not balanced (i.e. BS). Since C-TRAC has great built-in calculations, why not include the amounts in the diagnostic? I.e.: Total revenue on Sch. D, Part XI differs from total revenue on Part VIII, Line 12 by $12,485. Yes, we can cross-check in Excel, but that's just one more step that C-TRAC could save us during prep/review.

How will this idea help you and potentially others? Understanding how things are done today, where the pain is, and how the idea is beneficial puts us in your shoes.

Make prep/review more efficient and make return more accurate quicker.

Who will benefit from this idea? Whether it's specific roles of users, users of a specific product, or certain departments/markets, this helps us know who to talk to when we need more information.

Any 990 preparers. It's helpful to immediately see if you're off by $1 (rounding issue) or $1,000,000 (bigger issue to resolve).

How do you envision this idea being implemented at K1x? You're the expert and understanding how you see this working helps kickstart the idea.

Just update the diagnostics to include amounts when there are variances within the return (something doesn't tie).
