LONDON, November 26 /PRNewswire/ --

- Intrabench a Provider of CRM and Accounting Software has Implemented and Made Available the UK VAT Change in it's Software.

The result of the recent UK VAT changes is that many companies are now struggling to cope with software upgrades and accounting changes which will come into effect from Monday the 1st of December. With the SaaS model, a change can be made to a central system which instantly benefits all users of the software. Companies that are not using a SaaS model may have to upgrade their software themselves and pay high costs for consultancy as well as deal with any problems that arise when the change takes place.

The cost to business for this 2.5% VAT software change is immense, as many software implementations have been hard coded to 17.5% which makes changing the software a very time consuming and expensive operation, not to mention the time scale for this is extremely short.

SaaS (Software as a Service) from Intrabench, provides the added advantage that businesses no longer need to worry about the costs to support and upgrade their software, as this is all handled by the vendor. Users of Intrabench connect remotely via a secure connection to use and manage their data and all backups. Software and hardware provisioning are taken care of, thus lowering the total cost of ownership (TCO) for using the software.

As this software update has already been implemented within Intrabench, customers need only select the new VAT rate and all new invoices, quotes and accounts will take into effect the VAT change for repeat billing and payments. VAT returns will calculate the figures correctly taking into account the amounts before and after the 1st of December.
