IRIS Accountancy Suite Autumn 2026 - latest innovations in release v26.3.0

​The IRIS Accountancy Suite Autumn release version 26.3.0 includes updates in Accounts Production to support the Pension Schemes SORP 2026 and electronic submissions for audit exempt subsidiary accounts. In Company Secretarial, new Confirmation Statement forms are available as well as updates to IDV verification. Personal Tax has been updated to reflect the change to ‘carried Interest’ with the ability to produce estimated 2027 tax calculations. And for MTD, develop continues to enhance the end-to-end MTD ITSA journey. And in Practice management, two way syncing of IDV codes between IRIS Accountancy Suite and IRIS Elements removes the need for practice staff to maintain IDV status in two systems.​
