How UK firms use this workflow

Typical firm scenario

When a VAT return deadline is ten days away, automatic reminders go to clients with missing purchase invoices — and the manager sees which reminders were sent without checking individual inboxes.

Example: Overdue VAT files

A UK firm adds "Overdue VAT files" to the client checklist, sends a secure upload link, and reviews missing items from one dashboard instead of reopening email threads.

Example: Late SA evidence

A UK firm adds "Late SA evidence" to the client checklist, sends a secure upload link, and reviews missing items from one dashboard instead of reopening email threads.
