MAKING TAX DIGITAL
Making Tax Digital (MTD) is HMRC’s switch from online filing of HMRC’s fiscal reporting to a direct interface from your Accounting system to the HMRC portal. This spells the end to any manually entered keyed in data.
It is mandatory for all UK VAT registered businesses to report their VAT obligations to HMRC by the way of Making Tax Digital by April 2019.
The MTD VAT interface needs to conform to HMRC’s approved XML Schema using OAuth2, rest based API and JSON.
Infor System 21 Aurora user sites need to act now to ensure that they meet the HMRC deadline of April 2019.
Here at Total-e-Solutions we have created an Infor System 21 Aurora MTD module that will allow you to send your VAT returns to HMRC via an approved HMRC Gateway.
Our MTD module for Infor System 21 Aurora users integrates directly with your General Ledger transaction file (FLP008) and your VAT transaction file FLPUK4. It has the functionality to extract from multiple companies, multiple environments and from alternative ERP’s.
The Total-e-Solutions Infor System 21 Aurora MTD module integrates to HMRC’s using their approved XML Schema and Business Rules.
Our MTD module includes…
- Built in HMRC pre-requisite maintenance features.
- Microsoft Excel extraction for month end reconciliation.
- Import from alternative ERP’s such as SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle.
- VAT Consolidation and Submission direct from Infor System 21 Aurora
- Transmission to the HMRC gateway adopting OAuth2, Rest-based API and JSON to ensure successful, secure and seamless integration.
- Generates your MTD Vat Digital Certificate
