HRMC’s Making Tax Digital (MTD) policy aims to make submissions of VAT reports a secure, digital-first process. For businesses running Infor SunSystems, this means the need for a solution that is not only compliant today, but secure, scalable and ready for the phase-out of Indirect spreadsheet-based “bridging” submissions. At Sysynkt, we have designed our MTD module specifically for SunSystems and SunSystems Cloud to be ready for the Direct Connection mandates, by jumping ahead of Q&A-based spreadsheet, meaning customers won’t face interruptions or risk being non-compliant.
A HMRC‑Listed MTD VAT Solution for SunSystems
Sysynkt’s MTD module is listed by HMRC as compatible software for Making Tax Digital for VAT. This gives organisations complete confidence that their VAT submissions meet HMRC’s technical and regulatory requirements, without workarounds or manual intervention.
Whether you are running SunSystems on‑premise or in the cloud, our solution integrates seamlessly with your accounts, ensuring accuracy and compliance.
The First and Only Direct Connection for SunSystems Cloud
Sysynkt is proud to offer the first and only true Direct Connection MTD solution for SunSystems Cloud.
Unlike traditional approaches that rely on Bridging Software via calculated spreadhseets, our MTD module connects directly to SunSystems’ APIs to extract, prepare and submit returns. This reduces risk and ensures a secure digital journey from your source ledger data through to submission.
Direct connection means:
- No reliance on calculated spreadsheets
- No manual data handling
- A fully auditable digital link, aligned with HMRC’s long‑term vision
Why Bridging Software Is Not the Long‑Term Answer
Many MTD solutions on the market still depend on Bridging Software built around Excel spreadsheets. In the SunSystems ecosystem, this is typically achieved using spreadsheet outputs from the Query and Analysis plugin.
While this approach may have met early MTD requirements, HMRC has made it clear through its roadmap that spreadsheet‑based solutions will be phased out over time as digital links and automation become mandatory.
This creates a real risk for businesses that continue to rely on spreadsheet‑driven processes:
- Increased exposure to human error
- Greater audit and compliance risk
- Potential re‑implementation costs in the future
Sysynkt’s Direct Connection solution removes these risks entirely. By eliminating spreadsheets from the process, organisations gain a safer, more reliable and fully compliant MTD setup that is built for the future.
Future‑Proofing Your SunSystems Strategy
One of the key differentiators of Sysynkt’s MTD module is future‑proofing. While competitors continue to depend on spreadsheet‑based Bridging Software, our approach aligns with HMRC’s direction of travel.
Choosing Sysynkt means:
- Protecting your investment in SunSystems
- Avoiding disruptive changes as HMRC tightens MTD requirements
- Ensuring long‑term compliance without repeated system changes
It’s a safer choice today, and a smarter choice for tomorrow.
