The tool should allow user to provide IC wherever necessary, without restricting ICs for numbers alone.
Tool to place ICs on repeated information such as company name, year end date, directors' name etc. If a user selects an information and place IC stamp once, then the tool needs to automatically apply ICs throughout the document wherever it is repeating.

Stamps added to both CY and PY numbers
From delivery perspective, mathematical accuracy check is not performed for Prior year figures however DS5 also adds stamps for PY numbers automatically which is to be individually removed in post extraction stage. This will lead to an impact on overall efficiency as increased time will be taken to remove the additional stamps.

In case of PY findings, the tool should show the corresponding figures in PY FS with which the figure in Current year FS has been compared a
1)In case of PY findings the tool is not showing the corresponding figures in PY FS with which the figure in Current year FS has been compared and shown as finding. This could be done in previous manual version.
2)Also the inefficiencies have increased while performing PY check in current version.14 votes -
If possible, show the two compared documents side by side, after export
Allow the highlighted documents to appear side by side so that differences can be reviewed more easily. We are currently doing this with snips via the Microsoft snipping tool.

Recognize Note References in Parentheses in FSS IC Test
Some financial statements have notes references in parentheses next to each line item. The IC test in FSS does not recognize these note references because it is not in a note references column format, and does not provide suggestions. It would be great for DataSnipper to be able to recognize note references in this format in a Financial Statement so that the IC test can provide suggestions.

Version Compare Preview (Dual Page Scrolling)
Currently, Version Compare allows you to see a side-by-side view of the differences between documents only in the preview page.
Once the differences are extracted into the Excel workbook, there's no way to go back to the side-by-side view.
It would be great if we could always go back to the side-by-side view for easy visual comparison.

disclosure checklist
We need a way of referencing between a disclosure checklist and the relevant disclosure. Currently, we are relying on staff and manager review to catch whether a disclosure is made or needs to be made and it is relatively common for there to be mistakes.

Allow for custom tickmarcks to be automatically applied.
After creating a cutom tickmark, it is not possible to make it the default tickmark for every new tickamrk applied. You would have to select each and every one of the new tickmarks (one by one) and change it to the custom tickmark created.

Check PY closing to CY opening
For tables in notes such as fixed assets, it would be useful to check the PY closings to the current year openings. In the examples of fixed assets, this would include cost, accumulated depreciation and NBV.

Include face-to-face referencing
Include face-to-face referencing was done (e.g. BS to SCE equity items).
If the BS agrees to the notes, the BS should note the note number while the note should include a reference to the BS.
If the IS agrees to the notes, the IS should note the note number while the note should include a reference to the IS.That way, when reviewing the notes, you can easily see that the number agrees internally to the BS, IS, SOCIE etc. as applicable and can easily identify if it has a missing link that you would have expected.

Automatic "PY" in Internal consistency and prior year
We have just upgraded to the latest FSS version 6.0.11 and are experiencing that the functionality when manually checking off previous year (PY) and internal consistency (IC) has deteriorated. Now, when we first click on the amount, we have to choose whether it matches or not, and then select the amount in the financial statements. It was much better before when PY/IC was pre-filled as if it matched, and you manually had to choose if it didn't match. The new way takes much longer for us.
Similarly, in Internal Consistency, when we select an amount that matches, it does not…

Would it be possible to streamline “saving” changes to the original FSS file with the push of a button and eliminate the need to manually export and import the FSS project during each layer of review?

FSS Calculator for documentation
Within the calculator in V6 FSS, I want to be able to use the calculator to sum up numbers and then apply a tickmark based on that summation, so that when I hand off to my reviewer, the workbook has tickmarks that are indicative of the due diligence performed by me, the preparer.
For example, in tables with amounts in columns A - E, where E contains the total, FSS may incorrectly identify a column C as a summation of A+B, and suggest incorrect TMs all the way down that column. I would want (1) to remove the suggestions from…

Error limits
Where FSS identifies an error (could be due to OCR issues or changes in presentation so there is now minor rounding differences or with / without brackets) - can FSS allow a toggle to showcase these 'close' errors for quick investigation (similar to rounding in MA).

Allow name customization of the exported FSS report
The current download says "DataSnipper Financial Statement" at the top and clients would like that to be editable.

Changes in formats (tables etc)
It would be great if the FSS Module adapted to changes in format between PY and CY financial statements (such as tables and column headings).

review for combined tickmarks
The review of tickmarks which are combined (with a vertical line) is challenging
as you cannot see the direct link for each number unless you click on the number itself. A hover over the value should ideally show the reference to the prior year value.1 vote
