As the dust settles… Self Assessment January 2010 Review
The sound that best describes the start of February for everyone involved in Self Assessment filing is probably “Phew!” There’s a certain freedom that comes with successfully navigating the filing deadline. The team here have put in some late nights and long days to help you with your queries, and we certainly enjoy the return to normality that February marks.
I’m hoping to start a tradition, where we perform a review of the filing season just passed, and look at what went well, and where we could get better for next year. I’d love to hear what you think, about what we can do to make January 2011 more peaceful for you, and about what you felt went well in January 2010; please drop me a comment below, or email me at info@keytime.co.uk.

HMRC need software houses to release XBRL enabled software quickly
Following a recent meeting with someone from HMRC who has quite a lot to do with the drive to web enable HMRC processes, a number of points became clearer in our understanding of the drive to move the efiling of corporation tax returns and statutory accounts from their current platform to i-XBRL.

Will Keytime be ready with XBRL?
Since HMRC further raised the profile of XBRL (or inline XBRL as it is apparently correctly described) via a recent mailshot and some online promotion, we have received several calls from customers enquiring as to our plans for facilitating this new filing method in Keytime software products.
Interestingly, one of our less scrupulous competitors has been telling prospect customers we have been jointly speaking to that Keytime will be unable to deliver XBRL with our current products. I felt this was a bit rich seeing as they are no further advanced than any other supplier!
