New Feature
FRC 2025 iXBRL Taxonomy for Company and LLP Accounts
BrightAccountsProduction now supports the FRC 2025 taxonomy suite for Company and LLP iXBRL filings. The correct taxonomy version is selected automatically based on your accounting period end date — accounts with year ends after 31 March 2026 will use the FRC 2025 taxonomy, while earlier periods continue to use FRC 2023. Both the UK and Irish taxonomy extensions are fully supported. No action is required on your part; the update applies automatically when you produce your accounts.

New Feature
Isle of Man Company Legislation Selection
When preparing accounts for Isle of Man companies, you can now select the applicable legislative framework — either the Isle of Man Companies Acts 1931–2004 or the Isle of Man Companies Act 2006. This determines the legislative references used throughout the accounts, including the Directors' Report, balance sheet statements, and the Accountant's Report, ensuring they reflect the correct Isle of Man legislation for your client's entity.
