After a busy March with three releases:
- Being able to easily review your PSCs
- A collection of user suggested enhancements
- Using a company’s trading address in board minutes
We’re back with another highly desired update:
- Company alerts when a confirmation statement is filed externally that has changes that you might need to review
- Synchronisation of company data with Companies House sooner after a filing is made at Companies House (that was not sent via Inform Direct)
Ensuring that the information at Companies House is correct
Inform Direct makes it easy to see and check filings at Companies House
New Alert: Confirmation Statement Filed Elsewhere
You’ll get a new alert when a confirmation statement is filed directly at Companies House (not via Inform Direct). This alert will appear on your company dashboard and may need action for the following reasons.
- For catching changes to SIC codes, which you’ll then be able to replicate in Inform Direct.
- If changes were made to shareholder details in the confirmation statement, you may need to enter them into Inform Direct if you haven’t already done so (without making duplicate filings).
Real-time sync with Companies House
Inform Direct will now compare your company’s data with Companies House shortly after filings are made.
This means that changes filed outside of Inform Direct will be identified more quickly. Where no discrepancies are found, Inform Direct will automatically update the relevant details.
If discrepancies are detected, the Inform Direct team will manually review these (as they currently do) and either:
- Bring in the changes; or,
- Let you know of a discrepancy that needs to be resolved.
As these will now be identified for resolution sooner after the filing is made, they will be resolved by our Inform Direct team sooner too.
