View and monitor all your statutory reporting tasks, deadlines, and submission statuses in a single compliance reporting dashboard.Multiple legal formats
Generate legal reports in diverse output formats – such as XML, PDF, TXT, or XBRL – to meet specific government regulations. You can display your information in a data preview or tabular mode before filing.

Electronic or manual report submission File your report manually through the authorised government portals – or submit your reports digitally and receive notifications when your report content has been accepted or rejected.
