electronic filing specification that affected 2012 and 2013 returns. The updates added the option
to include PDF attachments and are available with this release. Prior schema versions are no
longer accepted, so Arizona electronically filed returns must be recalculated, re-exported, and
resubmitted on Release 2013.05050.
The 2012 schema is not available in ProSystem fx Tax and Arizona Individual Income tax returns
