Companies House Aggregator
What does it do?
Cynare provides a Companies House Aggregator which pulls Companies House records for registered organisations into the CynareLink database
This enables us to return company data, filing deadlines and more, without needing to integrate with internal production systems
Once in the CynareLink database, the information is presented through the Cynare app and used to deliver alerting and exception reporting
It checks internal compliance systems for companies, to ensure they’re up to date and correct
It tracks filing deadlines from Companies House
How is it different?
Cynare can optionally install the Companies House Tracker app, which provides a front-end interface for exploring the data from Companies House and exception-reporting against the Practice Management system
How much does it cost?
What are the benefits?
It confirms that a firm’s records tie in with the Companies House records
It allows the firm to spot errors at Companies House or in their own systems
It notifies the firm if their Client changes anything at Companies House without notifying them
How does it work?
Cynare brings data from Companies House into the CynareLink database for the relevant Client’s Clients
It does this by linking to the Companies House application programming interface (API)
Companies House has limits on the amount of data it can deliver per minute. We deal with this by calling the API in batches, then warehousing the results
