BGL delivers automated UK Companies House Comparison Report in CAS 360
BGL is proud to deliver an automated UK Companies House Comparison Report in its company secretarial software, CAS 360.
Designed to streamline compliance, this feature automatically identifies discrepancies between company data in CAS 360 and live data at Companies House, ensuring accuracy while reducing manual workload and potential errors.
“Many UK firms have been manually comparing their data to Companies House records—a process that is both time-consuming and prone to errors,” said Warren Renden, General Manager – CAS 360 at BGL. “CAS 360 eliminates this burden by automating the entire process, giving firms greater efficiency and confidence in their compliance management.”
The comparison report will also identify any changes made to the company records by other parties, including the company directors and lawyers, ensuring that the accounting firm is comparing against real-time Companies House data.
The UK Companies House Comparison Report in CAS 360 is divided into four key sections: General Details, Addresses, Officers and People with Significant Control. Shareholder comparisons are also made where the CAS 360 client has the company’s Authentication Code.
Any discrepancies are clearly highlighted making it easy for users to take immediate corrective action. If CAS 360 data needs updating, changes can be made simply within the software. If the discrepancy lies at Companies House, users can amend details via the Companies House online portal.
The report can be exported as a PDF for seamless sharing with stakeholders. Status filters in CAS 360 provide an efficient way to manage data, offering:
- Comparison Report Status: Passed or Failed
- Confirmation Statement Status: Due, Upcoming, or Passed
“This is just another example of our commitment to providing innovative solutions that simplify compliance processes and add value to our clients’ businesses,” Renden added.
