Fiduciary EF Messages 0102, 0115, 0193, 0194 point to problems with dates entered to define a fiscal year used in the return.
Do you intend to use a fiscal year in the return? If not, return to screen 1 and remove the fiscal year beginning and ending dates.
Otherwise, your fiscal year start or end date is incorrect, or you are trying to file a fiscal year return from Drake tax year software for the tax year in which the fiscal year ends (messages 0193, 0194). For example, a return using a fiscal year beginning in 2021 and ending in 2022 must be filed from Drake21.
The IRS considers an ending month of 12 to be a calendar year and the dates should be removed from the fiscal year fields. Drake Tax assumes a calendar year, unless it is otherwise indicated in the fiscal year fields on screen 1.
