Welcome to IRIS Elements

We are now inviting Keytime customers to upgrade to IRIS Elements. This upgrade will give you access to our online accountancy platform along with all the products and features you are subscribed to.

Upgrading to IRIS Elements involves migrating, or moving, your data from your Keytime product to our platform so that all your client information, tax data, accounts data and VAT data will be stored in your new Elements account.

We are here to help you

• This help centre contains lots of information on what migrating your data means, how to do it and how we can help you. Once you are set up, there is also a lot of information on how to use IRIS Elements. Use the Table of Contents on the left, or Search in the top bar to find what you need. We recommend reading through these pages first to give you an idea of what to expect. Follow the link to the Next Page at the top or bottom of these pages.

• We have dedicated teams available to support you in this move. Depending on what package you have with us, you can do this migration yourself or ask us to get you started. If you haven't spoken to us already, you will discuss your support package during your call with our Customer Migrations team.

  What help is available?
  If you would like us to help you with this migration, the Platinum flexiserve package includes time with a member of our team who will get you set up and migrate the first 10 clients with you.
  If you feel comfortable migrating this data yourself, this help centre will be your main source for information.

Why are we upgrading you?

We know that not everyone will welcome this move but it is essential to make sure your data is secure. Older products like Keytime unfortunately cannot always keep up with changes in technology and compliance. Using IRIS Elements means that you are always using the latest HMRC compliant software and you will be ready for the changes that are coming with the Making Tax Digital (MTD) initiative. Using a cloud product also means you don't have to worry about upgrading to new versions anymore, we do all of that for you behind the scenes.

Find out more about IRIS Elements and Making Tax Digital (MTD) on our website.
