Using both
For a client whose company is larger than a micro-entity, or an LLP, export the trial balance from FreeAgent and import it into Accountin for FRS 102 Section 1A accounts.
Accountin's filing status
Accountin is opening to its first practices. Year-end accounts, Companies House filing and the corporation tax return come first. Filing at Companies House switches on once Companies House issues Accountin's own filing credentials, and submission to HMRC switches on once HMRC has recognised Accountin. VAT and Making Tax Digital for Income Tax follow as HMRC approves each one.
