    Thanks for taking the time to share this idea — we can see why this would be helpful.

    We've now moved this idea to Gaining Support 🌟. This means we've recognised it as a valid feature request and we're now gathering feedback from customers to help us understand the level of demand and the impact it’s having.

    We agree it would make sense for the resignation date to flow through automatically into the final report when that information is already available in the Company Information section.

    At the moment, this isn’t done automatically, so the current workaround is to manually include the resignation date in the director details where needed for presentation in the final accounts.

    If this is something you'd like to see improved, please add your vote and any extra detail about how it affects your workflow. That helps our product team better understand the demand and the use case.

    I agree, this seems like a fairly straightforward improvement. If the resignation date is already being pulled from Companies House and shown in the Company Information section, it makes sense for that same data to flow through to the director’s details in the final accounts automatically. Having to manually add it each time feels unnecessary and also leaves room for inconsistencies or missed dates. Hopefully this can be picked up in a future update. 👍

    I think the same principle applies to other business processes too. When information is already available, systems should avoid making users enter it repeatedly. Keeping business details consistent across different parts of an online presence can save a lot of unnecessary manual work. I’ve noticed this with business websites as well, such as https://powerwashinglv.us/, where keeping service and business information clear and consistent is important.
