That is a tool to assign (mostly) income and expense accounts to
specific lines in the US income tax forms.  It sets up the information
for the Tax Schedule Report and TXF Export. 

I have found that it is difficult to correctly assign all my stuff, as I
have some things that may fall on different forms from year to year, and
it also requires rigorous attention to detail to be sure to get all tax
deductible expenses correctly assigned.  After trying it repeatedly for
a few years I am getting better at it, but I always use an alternate
tool to verify that I have found all significantly tax-worthy events.
