SHORT DESCRIPTION

July2020 Providing practical guidance for preparing and filing mandatory annual returns with the CIPC and discussing the software needed to convert the financials to the required format.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

By the end of this event the attendee should:

  • Know how to identify and address common issues prior to AFS upload onto the CIPC system;
  • Know how to make AFS compliant with relevant accounting framework and Companies Act requirements;
  • Understand what iXBRL is;
  • Know mechanisms/software required to convert AFS to required format; and
  • Have practical templates that make filing easy and efficient.

DESCRIPTION

The Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) has become a significant user of registered companies’ financial information when as of 1 July 2018, CIPC sanctioned the submission of annual financial statements for companies through eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL).

The Companies Act 2008 (as amended), makes it mandatory for every registered company to submit an annual return to the CIPC. The annual return needs to be accompanied either by annual financial statements (AFS) or a financial accountability statement (FAS) depending on the type of entity. The submission is done electronically on the CIPC’s system using the iXBRL taxonomy.  

We are excited to present this webinar where financial accounting and technology meet! It will provide grounding in the concepts needed to leverage XBRL.
