File Smart Print Mail EOM & EOFY Statement Process

Overview

These instructions are intended for clients who wish to use File Smart Print Mail to print and/or email End of Financial Year Statements/Income & Expenditure Reports (EOFY Statements) to owners.

The options for using File Smart Print Mail for EOFY Statements are:

  • Send the EOFY Statements along with the End of Month Statements, invoices and any other documents that are usually sent in a File Smart Print Mail owner statement run

    • In this case follow Part 1 and Part 2 below.

  • Send the EOFY Statements by themselves, separately from the End-of-Month Statements, invoices, and any other documents that are usually sent in a File Smart Print Mail owner statement run.

    • If the End of Month procedure and EOFY procedure are being done on the same day, follow Part 1 and Part 3 below.
    • If the End of Month procedure and the EOFY procedure are being done on different days, follow Part 1 and Part 4 below.

File Smart Printers

Statements should be printed to the File Smart Print Mail printer. If you don’t have this installed, please contact Support.

Important Notes

  • When you print to the End of Month Printer or the EOFY Printer, File Smart Auto Archive will automatically archive Owner Statements and EOFY Statements into their separate document types in File Smart Archive.

  • Only print one statement job at a time. If you have multiple trust accounts, process each statement job from Rest Professional, through to completing the File Smart Print Mail Collation. Once one trust is complete, proceed to the next as necessary.

  • Any EOFY Statements that are created by the trust program for archived/inactive owners may not be collated individually and won’t be emailed by Print Mail

    • They will be collated together as one item at the top of the collation list with the Name and Code blank.
    • They should be printed and reviewed to confirm that they are to be posted to the archived/inactive owner. The collated bundle will automatically be marked for printing.
    • If this collated bundle contains a considerable number of documents shown in the Attached Documents column, please contact File Smart Support. It is recommended not to preview them first as creating the preview PDF file may take quite some time.
