Release Bulletins and Support Bulletins

Version 24.0 build 3958 — Revisions to solve 2 errors — Release Bulletin 24/06/2024

About this release

Further to our Release Bulletin of 13 June 2024, we've solved the following 2 errors by releasing a revised version 24.0 (build 3958):
  1. Balancing charges were duplicated in the adjusted trading profit calculation on the computation.
  2. A
    CA Allowances Machinery Plant Other (-xxx) cannot be negative
     warning prevented saving changes to
    Capital Allowances
    .

In this release

  • Latest forms and HMRC updates:
    • Updated CT600 2024 forms.
    • Taxonomy and schema updates to enable tax return submissions for periods ending on or after 1 April 2024.
  • Functions for full expensing claims:
    • Additions dated on or after 1 April 2023 will now populate the full expensing boxes on CT600.
    • A
      Disposals
       checkbox helps you treat proceeds as a balancing charge and populate the full expensing boxes on CT600.
    note
    • Super deduction additions and disposals remain a manual process because this relief has been superseded by full expensing. Refer to our articles for the workarounds.
    • We've not included changes to computation parameters on the assumption that these have already been updated.
  • Bug fixes:
    • Box 329 is not now wrongly checked when the main company tax rate is overridden.
    • Adjustment to tagging of FYA additions to avoid duplicate tag warnings that prevent submission in some cases.
    • Additional information is added to losses brought back on the tax computation report to assist with loss carry-back claims.

Future updates

  • A refresh issue affects the updated full expensing calculations. If the capital allowance calculation is wrong, we suggest you reopen the company. We hope to include a fix in our next release.
  • Due to technical changes, we'll need to investigate the detailed profit and loss taxonomy further and update it in our next release.
  • We're also preparing for changes to the Research and Development tax reliefs for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 April 2024.
  • In August, we'll release content for Corporation Tax Advanced.
