Switching from CCH Fixed Assets, ProSystem fx or Axcess
Get your busy season back.
DepreciationPro™ runs the assets in a browser and exports back to ProSystem fx or Axcess Tax. You drop the separately-licensed Fixed Assets module.
Busy season stops backing up on the asset tie-out.
One register ties out federal and state, with the rule behind every number in view. A real grid with bulk edits, instead of one worksheet at a time.
A new client, running the same afternoon.
Drop in the CCH Asset List Report or Axcess worksheet and the AI cleans it: columns mapped, method codes normalized, prior-year numbers carried through. The wizard keeps ProSystem fx and Axcess files straight.
One less module on the CCH invoice.
Flat per seat, instead of a separately-licensed add-on on top of CCH Tax.
An asset register, not a form at a time.
Multi-select, mass-edit, mass-dispose, with the schedule recomputing inline.
Federal and state on one register.
All 50 states plus DC, auto-decoupled, with AMT adjustments alongside and the rule behind every number.
One click back to ProSystem fx or Axcess Tax.
Form 4562 and 4797 flow in for return prep, with nothing re-keyed at filing.
Cost seg you bill for.
CCH Fixed Assets sends it to an outside specialist. CostSegPro™ is built in, so your firm keeps the fee, and one OBBBA-era study is worth tens of thousands in year-one write-offs.

Common questions
Not sure if you're on ProSystem fx or Axcess?
The wizard fingerprints the file as you upload. Pick CCH, then the product, and if the file doesn't match it stops you before any data lands.
Does it export to CCH Tax?
Yes. One-click export to ProSystem fx Tax or CCH Axcess Tax, with Form 4562 and 4797 data flowing in for return prep. On Axcess, the worksheet override columns round-trip cleanly.
How are AMT and ACE handled?
Federal and state tie out on one register, and the CCH AMT and ACE columns come across on import for your review. Ask on the walkthrough and we'll show exactly what's wired for your books.
How long is the first tie-out?
Under an hour when the export is clean and prior-year accumulated depreciation is included. Calculation transparency explains any delta line by line.
