See the Tax Timeline in your calendar

The FreeAgent tax timeline gives you calculations and projections of your tax bills due so that you don't risk missing a payment and being fined by HM Revenue.

But do you have to go online and log into FreeAgent to see this information?

No, you don't.

Instead, you can enable a feed from FreeAgent to your computer's own calendar.

You'll see how to do this if you're using iCal.  It'll also work with more recent versions of Microsoft Outlook.

1. Enable the feed

Click Settings, then click API & Feeds.

api_feeds

Click the Enable access button.

enable_access

2. Choose tax timeline

Click the Tax Timeline link.

tax_timeline

FreeAgent will download the tax timeline feed.  Save this to your computer when prompted by your browser.

save_as

Go to this file in your computer (Finder or Wndows Explorer) and open it, either by double-clicking it or right-clicking and choosing Open.

Your calendar prompts you to choose somewhere to add the new events.  I'm going to choose New Calendar so that I can see these events separately.

add_calendar

Then click OK.

The new calendar feed will now show in your calendar on your computer.

in_calendar

You can do this with the invoice timeline too, so that you don't have to log into FreeAgent to see when your customers are due to pay you.
