One-Click CaseWare
Folder Flattening Tool
Instantly restructure nested CaseWare directories so you can use CaseWare Tracker to bulk roll forward files—without touching each engagement manually.
The Problem With Nested CaseWare Folders
Client XYZ → 2023 → Caseware Folder Client XYZ – 2023
This structure is great for organization, but it limits your ability to use CaseWare Tracker for bulk rollforwards, because the application can only roll files forward if the new file stays in the same directory as the original.
This forces accountants to manually open each file, roll it forward individually, assign names, and repeat the process—sometimes hundreds of times.
To streamline our own workflow, we built a simple one-click Windows utility that automatically “flattens” your CaseWare folder structure by moving engagement files up one directory level.
It converts:
old:
Client XYZ\2023\Caseware Folder Client XYZ – 2023
into:
—instantly, without manually dragging files.
