Create a Caseware Cloud engagement using Caseware Working Papers
This section describes functionality only available with Caseware Working Papers.
Desktop engagement files require that you have the software installed on your computer. You can create the engagement file locally and then integrate it with Cloud to enhance collaboration and sharing.
Create the engagement file
Instructions for creating a new Working Papers engagement file are available here.
Publish the file to Cloud
When you are ready to work on the new file, you can publish it to Cloud.
Hinweis: Ensure that you have integrated your Working Papers software with Cloud. For more information, see Integrate Working Papers with Caseware Cloud.
To publish a Working Papers file:
-
Open your engagement file in Working Papers.
-
On the Ribbon, in the Cloud tab, click Publish.
-
In the Publish to Server dialog, choose the client entity that the file belongs to.
-
Click OK.
You have successfully published your Working Papers file to Cloud. This creates a parent copy of the file on Cloud, and you can now share it with other staff members. The parent copy replaces the placeholder that was created when you first performed the year end close on the last year's file.
Once published, your team can create copies of the file to work on the new engagement. For more information about sharing the file, see Share a Working Papers SmartSync file on Cloud.
