View important company documents online with Tempo

As accountants we hold a variety of important documents on behalf of our clients, for example Incorporation Certificates and VAT certificates.

A popular request in our recent survey was the ability to view these documents (and add others) from within your Tempo account.

So... This feature is now available!  Simply click "Documents" (under 'Taxes, Reports and Documents' from the Main Menu) and you'll see a list of key documents that we have on file for your company.

We are in the process of adding an upload feature so that our clients can use it for documents such as contracts and insurance.

We will let you know when this is available!

New mileage expense claim form now ready

Tempo clients have been recording mileage expense claims using our general expense claim form.

Due to popular request we've now launched a dedicated "mileage claim form".  The advantages being that Tempo will calculate the rate that you can claim per mile (45p or 25p) and offers a very quick and easy way to copy previous trips you've claimed for.

Select the new "Mileage Claim" link when adding a new expense to access this form.

Remember if your drive your own car for business purposes you can claim 45p per mile for the first 10K miles in a tax year and 25p per mile there-after.  HMRC intends this to cover all costs such as fuel and wear and tear, so you should not claim for fuel or maintenance on your own vehicle.

We hope the new mileage form makes things even easier for you to keep your company records up to date with Tempo!
