Simplify and enhance your allocation work

Comprehensive functionality handles all of your partnership returns.

Save time on partnership returns


Our Partnership Tax System is designed to simplify and enhance your allocation work, supporting a wide range of allocation needs so your staff can be more productive and efficient. 

  • Comprehensive allocation options

For example, you can allocate liabilities based on end-or-year percentages, and allocate income, deductions and tax preference items on an activity-by-activity basis. You can also allocate excess basis adjustments under IRC Section 754 from the depreciation detail.
  • Powerful partnership functionality
    Prepare detailed partnership information, including federal partner basis worksheets to track the partners’ outside basis in the partnership and activity-level partner basis schedules. Consolidate federal partnership data from other partnership tax returns to a single partnership return.
  • Flexible delivery
    Customize partner letters, instructions, and labels, including the option to use your own letterhead. Output partner K-1 packages to a combined PDF or to individual PDF files. Produce supporting statements for every Schedule M-3 line.
  • Simple exports to Microsoft Excel

Drew Sullivan, Tax Operations Lead, Clark Schaefer Hackett
One of the enhancements in CCH Axcess Tax that my department is super interested in is the K-1 import. We've vetted third-party solutions, but Axcess Tax's revamp of the K-1 import is exciting. For clients with large K-1s or multiple inputs, it could save a lot of time for our staff.
