The suite combines tax reporting with tax return preparation, with returns lodged manually or through the ATO Standard Business Reporting portal. Developed within Microsoft Excel, it can link automatically with Excel workpapers. Task monitoring, workpaper records and audit reporting help teams track figures and queries. CTSplus products use a cloud-based tax management system for shared information and visibility of tax work; Trusts, AMITs and Partnerships products have desktop, network and cloud options. Other tools support Pillar Two calculations, forms and workflows, as well as data analytics across income tax, indirect tax, customs and superannuation. CTS is available on web and Windows, with hybrid deployment. Pricing is on request. Training and a helpline staffed by qualified tax professionals are included at no extra cost; the team says it responds by the next business day. SW says it has operated in Australia since 1935.
