ImprovedComplianceFilingsCompany data

See what blocks a filing on its task

A Companies House filing task lists what the company's record is missing before the form can be made, such as a director's date of birth, and simple details can be filled in there. Personal details can only be added by someone with access to personal data.

NewGovernanceIntegrationsMeetingsPermissions

Sync boards with your Board Intelligence portal

Connect your Board Intelligence board portal from Integrations and link each entity to a shelf. Directors in office are given access, and upcoming board meetings arrive as unpublished packs with their agendas, ready for you to publish in the portal.

NewComplianceFilings

Values to copy into website filings

Add a filing made on a website as your own web form, list the fields the website asks for in its order, and pick a company to see its values ready to copy across. Personal details show only to people allowed to see them.

E-filing in France, New Zealand and Hong Kong

An entity's Registrations page files forms with France's INPI Guichet unique, the New Zealand Companies Office and the Hong Kong Companies Registry, under your organisation's own registry account. Each filing is shown as the registry will receive it before it is sent.

NewComplianceFilingsAITemplates

See and set what fills each form box

The Data mapping tab on each filing form lists every box in the form's own words, the field that fills it and what it prints for a chosen company. On your own PDF, IQ proposes a field per box, boxes can be drawn on flat forms, and it downloads filled.

NewGovernanceSigning

Ask who can sign for an entity

The Who can sign? tab on an entity's Authorities page takes what is being signed, an amount and a date, and answers in a sentence naming the signing rule, the people who can meet it and who is not counted and why. Amounts are not converted between currencies.

NewPlatformAdminCompany data

Choose the columns each register shows

The Columns button on the entities, people, documents, tasks and other registers shows, hides and reorders columns, sets a default sort and adds custom fields. The layout applies to the whole organisation and is changed by people with the Layouts permission.

ImprovedGovernanceSigningNotifications

End authorities when a director resigns

Resigning a director shows which of their authorities outlive the appointment and offers to end those held in their name on the same date. Reminders are sent 90 and 30 days before an authority expires.

NewGovernanceSigningJurisdictions

Registered representation from the commercial register

For companies in Germany, Switzerland, Spain, the Netherlands and Poland, the Authorities page shows who the commercial register lists as able to bind the company and how they sign, above the internal limits that bind only the holder. A revoked representative stays listed until the deletion is registered.

ImprovedComplianceCompany data

See what raised a task

A task raised by a change opens with a sentence saying what changed and when, followed by the details recorded at the time, such as the director who resigned or the old and new registered office. These stay as recorded after the registers move on.

NewEntitiesCompany dataJurisdictions

Confirm a suggested Spanish tax territory

A Spanish company's page suggests its tax territory, worked out from the province of its registered office, with the reason shown beside it. Nothing changes until someone confirms, and a dismissed suggestion returns only if the registered office changes.

NewPlatformReportsTemplates

Registers in your own Word template

Your organisation's own Word template appears on the Reports page and fills one page per director of the company you pick, from their appointments, interests, related parties and transactions. Board Intelligence loads the template for your organisation.

ImprovedEntitiesDeadlinesAutomation

Confirm before a change cancels tasks

When an edit such as a cancelled registration or an ended address would take an entity out of a group, the save stops and lists each open task that would go and what happens to it. Automatic changes wait on the entity page for confirmation.

NewPeople & AccessCompany dataJurisdictions

Dated entity facts in each country's terms

Record facts about an entity, such as VAT registration, headcount, turnover or the payments it withholds tax on, each with the date it applies from. Provided fields use the country's own labels and keep a figure per financial year, and your own fields can be limited to chosen jurisdictions.

ImprovedAI & AnalysisAIAutomation

Describe a workflow and IQ drafts it

When starting a new workflow, describe the work in plain English and IQ shows how it read the request, then writes each step in turn. Where something is missing it asks a question, and the answers produce a redraft.

NewComplianceMeetingsDeadlines

Notice deadlines for Spanish general meetings

For a listed Spanish company, scheduling a general meeting raises a task to publish its notice a month beforehand, which moves with the meeting and is withdrawn if it is cancelled. Marking the meeting held raises a task to publish its results within five days.

NewAI & AnalysisAutomation

Request information from a workflow step

A Request information step emails a person, such as a director or adviser, for documents or an answer, and they reply by email or through its link without signing in. The run waits until someone on the team accepts the reply, and documents also go to the Review Queue.

ImprovedComplianceFilingsJurisdictions

Add your own filing forms

On the Filing forms page, Add a form uploads your organisation's own form for any country or subdivision, in a group you name. It is marked User uploaded and sits beside the registry's forms without replacing them. Organisation administrators can add forms.

NewComplianceFilings

Download the filing form from its task

A task filed directly with a registry names the form and links to where it is filed. Download the blank form, or one filled from the company's records with any empty fields listed first, or copy the values for an online filing.

NewComplianceTemplatesSigning

Draw up the documents a task needs

Tasks such as a director appointment list the board resolution and consent to act they need, drawn up from your firm's own template where there is one and attached to the task. Send each for signature through DocuSign or upload the signed copy.

NewComplianceDeadlinesDashboards

Forecast of upcoming deadlines

The Forecast page shows every deadline a portfolio or a single entity is under over the next 3, 6, 12 or 18 months, combining open tasks with projected recurring deadlines. View it as a timeline, a calendar or a table by entity.

NewEntitiesDeadlinesAdmin

Onboard entities before taking them live

New entities start in onboarding, where recurring duties run but appointments, resignations and charges raise no tasks, and nothing recorded meanwhile is replayed later. Entities are taken live in bulk from the Onboarding tab of Requirement assignments, where the default is also set.

NewComplianceFilingsJurisdictions

Filing forms for each registry

Filing forms, beside Requirement assignments in settings, lists the forms each registry publishes, country by country. A form filed from a task links to that task, others offer the registrar's blank, and portal-only filings show the values to enter from the chosen company's record.

NewGovernanceSigningRegisters

Authorities register for each entity

The Authorities page on each entity records powers of attorney, board delegations and bank mandates, with the limits on each, the signing rules and the dates they run between, as a list or a matrix. Each person's Authorities tab lists what they may sign across every entity.

NewPeople & AccessPermissionsSecurity

Confidential and restricted documents

A document marked Confidential is hidden from anyone whose role lacks the Confidential documents permission, with no list entry, link or download. Restricted documents also require a place on that entity's team. Set the level under Sensitivity when editing a document.

NewComplianceRegisters

Gifts and hospitality register

Each person has a Gifts & Hospitality page recording what they were offered or gave, who it came from or went to, its value and whether it was accepted, declined, returned or donated. A register across all people totals values per currency.

NewPeople & AccessCompany data

Merge duplicate person records

Choose Merge into… on a person in the People register to move their appointments, holdings, committee seats, documents and identities to another record with the same name and retire the duplicate. Merging needs permission to delete people and cannot be undone.

NewPeople & AccessRegisters

Questionnaires for directors to complete

Send a director a questionnaire from the Information requests page on their record, and they confirm their own details and declare conflicts and related parties through an emailed link without signing in. Their answers are saved as a dated declaration, and the link expires and closes once submitted.

NewComplianceJurisdictionsDeadlines

Compliance frameworks for all 50 US states

The framework catalogue includes one framework per US state, covering annual reports, franchise taxes, tax registrations and registered agent changes. A state's duties apply only to entities in a group you attach it to under Requirement assignments.

NewComplianceJurisdictionsFilingsDeadlines

Compliance frameworks for eight more countries

Frameworks for Jersey, Guernsey, Ireland, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Germany, Canada and the UAE cover the filings a change triggers and each country's annual returns. A framework is owed only by the entities in the groups you attach it to under Requirement assignments.

NewComplianceDeadlines

Confirm duties no record can settle

Employers' liability cover, a written health and safety policy and the audit exemption review appear as yearly tasks that a person confirms, with the certificate or policy attached. Each task says what could not be worked out from company data.

NewComplianceRegisters

Coverage note on laws and obligations

The Laws & obligations page for each entity opens with a note stating how many areas of duty are tracked, which areas are not tracked at all, and which known duties are missing inside tracked areas, such as the Full Payment Submission.

NewComplianceDeadlinesCompany data

Dates for PAYE, pension and VAT duties

Entity Details has fields for the first payday, the day auto-enrolment duties started and when turnover crossed the VAT threshold, and the PAYE, pension and VAT registration duties are dated from them. Until a date is set, the duty shows as owed but undated.

NewAI & AnalysisAIExports

Export an IQ conversation

Export on the IQ assistant page saves a conversation as a Word document or PDF that lists every action IQ took and whether it was approved. File the transcript to an entity's documents from the panel. Each person exports only their own conversations.

NewGovernanceRegistersOwnership

Joint holders on the register of members

The register of members shows shares held jointly as one member, with every holder named in register order and the first-named holder marked. Share certificates and dividend vouchers name all the holders, and the dividend is paid to the first-named.

NewComplianceFilings

Registrar's copies attached as filing evidence

Each night the registrar's own PDF of a Companies House filing is saved to the company's documents and attached to the task for the duty it discharged, with its transaction number cited in the evidence pack. A filing that could belong to more than one task is left unattached.

NewPeople & AccessSecurityAdmin

Require two-factor authentication for everyone

Sign-in Security in the admin settings has one switch that requires every member to set up two-factor authentication, shows how many have not enrolled, and gives existing members up to 30 days to do so. It needs permission to manage organisation settings.

NewPeople & AccessSecurityAdmin

Sign in with Microsoft Entra ID

In Sign-in Security, an administrator creates a setup link for your IT team to connect Microsoft Entra ID. People on your verified email domains then sign in with their work account, and administrators choose whether single sign-on is required.

NewGovernanceRegisters

Single-member statements in the register

When a UK company's membership falls to one, or rises above one again, a task asks you to enter the dated statement in its register of members. Recorded statements appear on the register page and on its exported copies.

NewComplianceDeadlines

Tax, payroll and pension deadlines

Corporation Tax, PAYE, apprenticeship levy, pension contribution, P11D and Class 1A deadlines appear on the compliance calendar for the UK companies they apply to, dated from each company's own records. They are not filed or paid from here, and each task records the evidence that someone met the deadline.

ImprovedPlatformExportsReports

Export the audit trail

Export CSV on the audit trail downloads exactly the rows your filters show. The Audit trail report in Reports gives the same history as a spreadsheet or PDF for a period, entity, actor or kind of record, for anyone allowed to read the audit trail.

NewCompanies HouseFilingsSecurity

See which Companies House codes are missing

Filing codes, on the Companies House card in Integrations, lists every UK company with whether its authentication code is on file and every individual with whether their personal code is. It opens on the codes still missing.
