What crosses over, and when.

Connect it once in your settings. After that it runs on its own while you are on the tools.

  • Invoices when you issue them, with the lines and the VAT
  • Deposits netted off, so nothing is counted twice
  • Expenses and payments as they happen
  • CIS withheld against labour, not materials

One way, Trame into FreeAgent. Mileage stays in FreeAgent's own screen. Turn it off whenever you like.

CIS comes off labour. Not materials.

If you invoice contractors, this is the part that goes wrong. Deduct against the whole invoice and a job with a real materials bill withholds hundreds too much.

Mark the section as materials and it drops out of the base, at 20%, 30% or gross. FreeAgent gets the same figure. Reverse charge works the same way.

Work only for householders and neither applies to you.

Against the £1,000 of labour. Deduct against the full £1,500 and it is £300, holding back £100 that was never yours to lose.

Your accountant keeps working in FreeAgent as normal.

Nothing changes at their end. They open FreeAgent and it is there, with the VAT, the CIS and the paid invoices already marked off. No quarterly export, no folder of receipts to hand over.
