The UK government is going ahead with its Making Tax Digital (“MTD”) programme, starting with VAT-registered taxpayers. From 1 April 2019, businesses with a turnover above the VAT registration threshold will be required to keep specified minimum records in the VAT account and to submit the current nine- box VAT return to HMRC via Application Program Interface (“API”) software (linking either the accounting system or excel spreadsheets to the HMRC system).
While bookkeeping, VAT returns and payroll are all key to many small businesses, it is payroll that the vast majority often need a hand with. This is naturally a very important aspect of any business because it deals with paying your staff. Any hiccups here can really cause problems! It is also key to get right so that HMRC have the correct information around tax and NI information for employees.

Digital Tax Guide for Small Practice
(What it means for them in real life)
In recent conversations with clients, there seems to be a high level of uncertainty relating to the impact of
Making Tax Digital (MTD) on their firms. One thing that everyone is unanimous about is that tax is changing.
HMRC's intention with Making Tax Digital is to allow them to be able to interact digitally with all tax payers by
2020.
Full details of David Gauke's announcement can be found here
The concept of MTD has been around for years. At top level the idea seems to be welcomed by the industry.
The idea of taxpayers having instant access to their data, improved communication lines with HMRC and
making payments online seems like the ultimate solution. Digging deeper however, many feel the new system
will be the biggest challenge faced within the tax industry, which ultimately will impact not only every taxpayer
and business, but agents too.
So what does MTD consist of?
The Data Feed
The Digital Tax Account (DTA)
Every taxpayer and business in the UK will be provided with a
Digital Tax Account. Individual taxpayers have a Personal Tax
Account ; whilst every business will have a Business Tax
Account, for handling business affairs related to VAT, PAYE,
Corporation Tax, Partnership Tax, amongst others.
The aim of the DTA will be to feed real time data into the
account through the use of 3rd party software. An example of
this would be HMRC's use of introducing RTI filing for payroll.
Payroll software will feed information related to a pay run
directly into a DTA account. In fact it also feeds directly into the
Personal Tax Account associated to that employment. Taking
the same concept, HMRC's intention is now for you to provide
all other information to feed directly into the accounts; with the
aim of providing a taxpayer a full overview of any income (rental
income, self employment income, bank interests, any dividends
gained); within a real-time environment.
The resulting factor of this? The tax return form will be replaced with a digital tax account. The main difference
being that HMRC will carry out the assessment of the tax to be paid based on the information supplied into the
account.

PAYE
4. Digital Tax Guide for Small Practice Page 4
Currently HMRC have stated that the “Your Tax Account for Business” (YTA) will not be available for tax
agents to use. Although it provides businesses with ways to find advice and information and lets them view
tax transactions across the range of business taxes including Self Assessment (SA), Corporation Tax (CT),
VAT and PAYE for employers; it's not accessible by agents.
Instead agents will need use a separate system named “Agent Online Self-serve” (AOSS) however
currently is only available to agents with less than 200 clients during the pilot phase. Although HMRC
acknowledge the need to roll this out to all agents, there is still not a definitive date in place with
indications pointing towards some point between July and December 2016.
Access
Tax liability calculations
Based on all the information fed through as close
to real-time as possible, HMRC's system will
calculate your potential tax liability. The issue
being, there could be a high chance of the
calculations being incorrect without any
adjustments being carried out by a professional.
As of April 2018, HMRC intend for the majority of sole traders
and landlords (including those in employment but also have a
secondary source of £10,000 or more per annum) to keep
records in some form of digital format and submit the high
level information online - at the very least on a quarterly basis.
Following this timeframe, it will be rolled out to SME
businesses by 2020 with intentions of reporting VAT and
corporation tax obligations.
The objective being that HMRC no longer feels spreadsheets
to be an adequate form of record keeping. By introducing this
as mandatory, they feel it will make paying taxes and
reporting information closer to real-time.
The introduction of at least
Quarterly Updates
5. Digital Tax Guide for Small Practice Page 5
What does this mean for firms and their clients?
At the moment there seems a great deal of uncertainty over what impact this will have operationally as well as
financially to firms. Below we highlight some current pain points which need to be considered and potentially
some remedies to them.
Client numbers
There is a fear that this extra burden on businesses goes against
advocating the start-up boom we have seen in the UK over the
past few years. The risk of introducing MTD could place too much
pressure on ensuring businesses focussing on their accounting
requirements being correct, instead of the focus remaining on
growing their business. Some accounting firms are worried that
many business owners may choose to return to being employed
rather than being an employer, resulting in less business for a firm.
Having said this many firms also feel that it is a matter of advising
and training their clients on the best processes and tools available,
though it could be painful in the initial stages. Is this an opportunity
to offer advisory services and illustrate the value you can provide
business owners?
The cost
In the past years, many firms may have had clients where they
worked on their account once or twice in a year. The work will
now change to become of a much more regular occurrence; at
the very least on a quarterly basis. The principle of real-time
updates sounds fantastic to all; however does this culminate in
firms now being forced to charge more to their client, due to
more time being spent on their account? The adjustments a firm
may have carried out on a yearly basis, now becomes more
frequent - at least quarterly / monthly to ensure the data sent
across is accurate. All this culminates in more time spent.
The dependency
With MTD now gaining momentum and the introduction of
Quarterly Updates; the likelihood that clients will need their
accountant more than ever before, seems very high. The
administrative responsibility forced upon small businesses by
continuously feeding information into their digital account may
seem easy at first glance to even the most accounting and tech
savvy business person; however the likelihood of needing to
carry out certain accounting adjustments seems to be almost
certain. With the tax system becoming even more complexed,
somebody will need to ensure the calculations and adjustments
carried out are correct from the outset.
The result of this? Clients will become more dependent on their accountant to safeguard this measure. Many
firms however, are concerned the introduction of MTD could place too much of an operational drain not only on
businesses and individuals, but subsequently impacting their agents too.
6. Digital Tax Guide for Small Practice Page 6
The vision of MTD having any chance of working is primarily driven around the use of technology. In a
recent survey carried out, many firms feel that the adoption of technology software can be used to
streamline and automate a great deal of the mundane work that would need to be carried out regularly.
This tech can be offered to clients to ensure regular activity is maintained. Naturally there will be clients
who are less technical than others. Research the options available to cater for their needs.
Some clients can be given more access to carry out accounting work than others. Cost of some doesn't
have to be an issue as some offer free accounting options. Others can be restricted to the bear minimum
for recording purposes. The use of receipt capturing and bank feeds may also prove to be of service to
carry out the mundane work and maintain control – cost permitting.
The Technology
Many accountants currently view the impact of MTD with some concern, primarily based around the
uncertainty of additional work and costs involved. Are they forced with no alternative but to pass on the
costs to their clients?
They do however feel there are elements which will help taxpayers manage their affairs. Those that we
have spoken to welcome the digitisation of tax in principle; however request more clarity on the subject,
prior to the full rollout taking place and the speed associated with it.
As a software provider we will continue to work closely with our clients and HMRC to ensure you are
provided with data in as real-time as possible when more information and access has been shared. We
will ensure the data remains fully integrated throughout all of our modules, and remain focussed on
streamlining the efficiencies within your practice.
Conclusion
“By 2020, businesses and
individual taxpayers will be able
to register, file, pay and update
their information at any time
of the day or night, and at any point
in the year, to suit them. For the vast
majority, there will be no need to fill in
an annual tax return.”
“By 2020, taxpayers will be able
to see their complete financial picture
in their digital account, just like they
do in their online banking. And they will
be able to set an over-payment of
one tax against the under-payment of
another: it will feel like
paying a single tax.”
