It's not a complaint. It's a question and a calling out of poor automation.
Insofar as transferring one year to another, I did. So that would automatically transfer the EIN along with employer info, which I believe was the thrust of your answer. I had mistaken the EIN for something else.
What the transfer has not done is included the employer's download code (entered last year) that enables easy population of W-2 info. This is very useful when the employer hasn't generated a hard copy version from which to enter manually.
Thanks for taking the time to include those links comprehensive links and making distinctions about which ones would apply to which scenarios.
