Updated Dividend Feed

This issue is resolved in the next release of Personal, Business and Trust Tax, version 23.2 anticipated late Q3/early Q4.

If you prefer to update the dividend data feed manually before then, follow these instructions:

  1. Download the updated Dividend Files from here
  2. The default installation location would be:-
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Digita\Personal Tax\Dividend\22-23\"
  3. The updated files will need to be placed into this location and overwrite the existing files when prompted.
  4. This would need to be installed on any workstations using Digita, Personal Business and Trust Tax.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

DVO Users

You do not need to download the updated files, this will be done on your behalf.
