What it does day to day
When you take on a client, start typing their name and pick the company from the list. The number, registered office, SIC codes, directors, PSCs and next accounts and confirmation statement dates fill in from Companies House.
The system checks your clients against Companies House each day. A new director, a changed registered office or an overdue filing shows on a timeline, so you hear about it before the client mentions it, or before a penalty.
