We\u2019ll also be making the changes required to handle the legislative payroll requirements from the new Tax Year in April.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscriptions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work has already commenced, focussed on making it much easier for Accounting Partners to manage their clients\u2019 subscriptions, irrespective of whether they are based on monthly subscriptions, or annual or multi year bulk license arrangements. We\u2019ll also be introducing new options to archive client accounts or make them \u201cdormant\u201d; important capabilities when a client either moves to a new accountant or ceases trading. We\u2019ll provide more detail on these closer to the release date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Making Tax Digital<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, like you, we\u2019re waiting for HMRC to confirm precisely what the proposed MTD initiative actually means in practice, but suffice it to say that we\u2019re already planning new versions of the product designed to make it easier for clients to move to online accounting (and therefore online submission) who wouldn\u2019t otherwise consider using accounting software. Again, we\u2019ll provide more detail on these as the plans are finalised.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of you will be aware that we have a product roadmap that
