Add-on module

Every tax deadline, every balance, one screen

Stay on top of every client's UK tax position — all in one view.

TaxScout connects to Government Gateway and pulls CT, PAYE, SA, and VAT data for every client into a single dashboard, so payment reminders take minutes instead of hours.

No more logging into HMRC for every client

Checking HMRC client by client doesn't scale. A 200-client practice can run over 600 individual portal checks a month - and still risk late-filing penalties and interest on overdue payments when something slips through.

TaxScout replaces all of it with one view. Connect Government Gateway once, sync on demand, and see Corporation Tax, PAYE, Self Assessment, and VAT for every client in a single, configurable dashboard.

600+

individual HMRC checks a month for a 200-client practice. TaxScout replaces all of them with one view.

01

Every client's tax status at a glance

One configurable dashboard shows every client across every tax type, so you can stop logging into HMRC client by client.

  • See every client across CT, PAYE, Self Assessment, and VAT in a single view.
  • Filter and sort by payment status, return status, filing status, and direct debit.
  • Configure each tab to show the columns that matter to your practice.

See what's due, and when it's due

Know exactly what each client owes and prioritise your team's workload, so payment reminders take minutes instead of hours.

  • View amounts outstanding across CT, PAYE, Self Assessment, and VAT.
  • Sort by urgency to focus on the deadlines that matter first.
  • Send payment reminders in minutes rather than hours.
03

Drill into any client's full tax picture

Open any client for a complete, period-by-period breakdown - all synced straight from HMRC.

  • Review per-client summaries and period-by-period detail for each tax type.
  • See balances, returns, and payment status without leaving Socket.
  • Sync an individual client on demand, right before a meeting or call.
