One login, every client
Built for practices, not just single businesses
Run every client's books from one account, with role-based access per organisation — Owner, Admin, Accountant, Bookkeeper or Viewer. Switch between client organisations without signing out, the same "agent managing several clients" shape you already expect from practice software.
Whether you're a sole trader doing your own books or a practice managing fifty clients, the ledger underneath is the same real double-entry system — accurate, auditable, and ready for HMRC.
Everything you need to keep the books
A complete UK SME accounting product, from first invoice to filed return.
Bookkeeping
The core ledger
- Double-entry ledger — A real chart of accounts, seeded with a UK SME default template and fully editable per organisation.
- Bank reconciliation — Import a CSV/OFX statement and match each line to an existing transaction, or create one — clear the list to zero.
- Invoices, bills and credit notes — Every line carries its own VAT category, so nothing needs re-tagging later for a tax return.
- VAT built in from day one — Standard, Reduced, Zero, Exempt, Outside scope and Reverse charge — the 9-box VAT Return is a pure read of your own data.
- Standard reports — Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Trial Balance and Cash Flow, exportable to PDF and CSV.
- CIS tracking — Construction Industry Scheme deductions tracked and ready for the monthly CIS300 return.
For accountants
Practice mode
- Multi-client login — One accountant login, many client organisations — switch between them without signing out.
- Role-based access — Owner, Admin, Accountant, Bookkeeper and Viewer roles, scoped per organisation.
- Self Assessment prep — Income and allowable expenses categorised to match HMRC's own SA103/SA105 boxes.
- Built for handover — Every report is laid out exactly as HMRC's own forms, ready for a client or their accountant to file.
How HMRC filing works today
Accurate reports, filed by you — for now
Noviqent Accountancy does not yet submit anything to HMRC directly. Every VAT Return, Self Assessment prep report and CIS return is calculated correctly and laid out exactly as HMRC's own forms require — ready for you or your accountant to transcribe straight into HMRC's online services.
We're in the process of testing a Making Tax Digital (MTD) integration directly with HMRC, starting with VAT, so a future submission can happen straight from your dashboard once that testing and HMRC's own review is complete. Submission will always be opt-in, connected through your own Government Gateway login — we'll never hold your HMRC credentials or file anything without your explicit action.
- Every report matches HMRC's own required layout, box by box
- VAT category tagged on every transaction from day one
- No API calls to HMRC yet — submission stays manual and in your control
- Direct MTD VAT submission is in testing, coming as an opt-in feature
- Your Government Gateway login is never stored by Noviqent
