Want to Know the Status of Your 5500? Key Tools to Help

Wrangle is laser-focused as we prepare those Form 5500s that are due July 31^st. Since 2018, we have given you front row seats to watch our progress through our online Dashboard. At any time, you can find the status on a broad spectrum with the Scorecard or down to the policy level of a Plan. Here are some tips on how to obtain these statuses, as well as tips on the other buttons available in the Dashboard.

How to Find Where All of Your Files Stand at a Quick Glance

• Look at the Scorecard found in the Center of the Dashboard’s homepage.

• Underneath the Scorecard, within the listing of your files, there is also a quick status check on the Schedule As for each file. Data in Green means all Schedule As have been received and Red is the opposite – there are one or more outstanding.

Want to know the Specifics of Your 5500? Just 4 Easy and Quick Steps.

Run a status report 24/7 – as many times a day as you see fit.

Steps:
