Welcome to the AlphaVAT version
4.4 release, which includes the following new features and updates:
New features
For this release we have introduced
the following new features:
Automated
data treatments:
Automate the blocking
of VAT on transactions, or exclusion of transactions from
the Return. Users can now add rules in the Entity Summary
screen to automatically block or exclude transactions. When
a calculation is run, any transactions meeting this rule will
be blocked or excluded and can be reviewed in the ‘Preview
and analysis’ section.
Foreign
Exchange: Automate
more of the process using our foreign exchange capability.
We can now convert transaction values from non-GBP currencies
to GBP using HMRC’s published exchange rates. Alternatively,
you can use a column of data from your own source files to
define the rate of exchange. Xlsx/xls
Excel file uploads: Have greater flexibility in the file
types you can upload. We now support a wider range of Excel
file types. You can also upload files with multiple tabs and
select which tabs within the file you want to proceed with . Template
management: Certain
users can now archive unused templates using the new template
manager. This is found in the calculation options screen . Single
sign-on: We have enabled single sign-on (SSO). You may
notice the flow for logging into the application has changed
but there is no change to your credentials so please continue
as normal. You
will be required to enter login credentials when accessing
the application for the first time after the release as the
application URL has been updated. Password managers will need
updating with this URL. If
your company has whitelisted the previous version of the login
URL, you may need to request that your IT team whitelist this
new version if you
experience an issue logging in. If
this is the case or you notice any issues logging in – please
contact our support team on 01784 777 666 or support@taxsystems.com. VAT
wording changes:
We have updated
the wording on the VAT Return for changes post-Brexit.
Enhancements
We have made the following improvements
to the user interface and layout:
PESM enhancements: Our PESM
calculation feature has been extended to our latest engine.
Reconciliation reports:
We have added reconciliation reports for manual adjustments
and changes resulting from custom data checks. Block or Exclude custom data checks:
Users can now block or exclude transactions as a result of
a custom data check without needing to go back to the source
file upload. Map file error management:
We have added more warnings where users map data that is not
in an acceptable format (for example, words as dates) in order
to help users diagnose where issues may arise. UI Enhancements: We have
made a number of UI enhancements to improve the layout of
the screen and navigation around the solution.
Bug fixes
We have fixed a number of bugs that
were previously identified.
