The return sits on the client, next to their other files.
Members open it from the client's Documents tab, in the same folder as the files from that client's tasks, notes and emails.
- A backup copy in Uku, so a file lost on the drive still opens
- Open in Google Drive or OneDrive from the file's menu

Import your clients
Export the client list from Lacerte to Excel and import it in Uku. Map Lacerte's client number to Client code, so a later import updates clients instead of adding them twice.
Connect your drive
In Settings & Apps → Documents, connect the drive, choose the main folder and name client folders by Client code. Each folder then carries the number you use in Lacerte.
Print from Lacerte
With the Google Drive or OneDrive desktop app, client folders show up on your computer. Print or save the return as a PDF into the client's folder.
Questions about Lacerte and Uku
Is this a direct integration with Lacerte?
No. There is nothing to connect in Lacerte: the return travels through your drive.
What do I need to get started?
Uku on the Elite or Enterprise plan, which includes the Documents app, and a Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint or Dropbox account. A Company Owner or Company Admin connects the drive. Dropbox works with a personal account or Dropbox Business without a team space.
Does Uku prepare or e-file tax returns?
No. Returns are prepared and e-filed in Lacerte. Uku runs the work around them: the client, the tasks and the documents.
Is Uku affiliated with Intuit?
No. Intuit and Lacerte are trademarks of Intuit Inc. Uku is an independent product and is not endorsed by Intuit.
