Here's the overview! Click on any link below to go straight to that section or read on to see all the latest updates.


TrustID Integration

Right To Work processes are increasing gaining attention and can create risks when taking on new workers if their right to work status has not been correctly confirmed. To make this additional administrative burden simpler, we have now integrated Trust ID into the system to verify the right to work documents of the contractors.

Write off penny differences

Occasionally, payments from your customers may be 1 or a few pence off due to rounding differences in their own accounting software so we have introduced an option to clear those penny differences on the Payment on Account Transactions. Please visit the link below for further details!


Edit/Delete Bank Rules

Using Bank Rules when allocating incoming cash transactions to Customers is a great way to speed up morning 'cash matching' processes. Occasionally though, the Customers you work with will change the narrative they use for Payment Descriptions and those rules no longer work. Now we have added the ability to change or delete bank rules and please visit the link below for the full article on Bank Rules with additions on how to now edit/delete rules:


Accrue Employment Costs on Accrued Holiday Pay

We have developed an additional way to account for employment costs for those who prefer to accrue those costs at the time holiday pay is calculated and accrued. Please visit the link below for further details!


General Finance Improvements

We have also made a few minor changes to our Finance screens, which should make them a little quicker to work with.

First, we have added the option to view up to 1000 invoices or payments in the Payments on Account screen:

Secondly, for any net wages that are matched manually, the Add Bank Transactions screen will default to show any unmatched transactions from the previous month:

Finally, we have added a new VAT category for Out of Scope transactions. If Exempt is chosen, the Sales figures will appear on the VAT return as part of your Box 6 summary however, as this category is 0%, it will not add any VAT liability to Box 1.

If Out of Scope is selected however, neither Box 1 or Box 6 will include this invoice:


Navigation Changes

We have removed the below menus under Settings inside the company since they can be accessed inside the Company Setup menu.

1) Workflow
2) Auto Number Generation
3) Company Settings
4) Pension Auto-Enrolment

Menu Display before Update:



Menu Display After Update:

Since all the above-mentioned menus are available inside the "Company Setup," they are removed from the main tree structure. You can access all those menus under Company Setup.
