Job Setup: Questionnaire, CoA Mapping and Data Sources
Getting a job ready before running the automation.
Job Setup covers the job's own details, its thresholds, and Files & Mapping, the area where the trial balance is mapped, documents are uploaded, and mapping progress is tracked.
Files & Mapping
● By Account: upload the Trial Balance, then confirm or correct each account's Parent Account mapping. Mappings already approved at client level flow through automatically.
● By File: upload documents can be uploaded directly into the job, NZ: Ledger, IRD, Companies Office Extract or Client Direct. AU: Ledger, ATO or Client Direct.
● By Workpaper: a workpaper-centered view of mapping progress, filterable by All, To map, Mapped, or Missing docs.
A Job ledgers indicator tracks the three files every job needs: GL Current Year, GL Last Year, and Trial Balance.
How to access: Job Details, then Job Setup, then Files & Mapping.
When a file is uploaded, Zato automatically identifies which workpaper or purpose it relates to.
Filters narrow the view to All, Uncategorised, or Low confidence, each shown with a running count.
To review and correct file categorisation:
Open the job and go to Job Setup, then Files Mapping.
Use the Uncategorised or Low confidence filter to see which files still need attention.
Select a file and confirm or correct its File category and Reference Workpaper.
Repeat until every uploaded file shows a State of Categorised.
A file left Uncategorised is not linked to a workpaper and will not contribute to that workpaper's supporting evidence or figures.
