Simple to start.
Useful every month.

Which calendar dates apply to my business?

Your registrations, VAT category and financial year-end determine your deadlines. The downloads are a dated snapshot of selected obligations, not a complete schedule for every business. Check current SARS notices before filing. CIPC anniversary dates and other individual deadlines need to be added separately.

How do I add reminders to my calendar?

Download the ICS file, then use your calendar application's import option in eM Client, Outlook or another compatible app. Import into a separate calendar and remove events that do not apply. Events include a seven-day reminder; notification settings depend on your app. This is a one-off import, not a live subscription. Re-importing may create duplicates.

How do I use the cash-flow planner?

Open the file in Excel or a compatible spreadsheet app. Edit the yellow cells: starting month, opening cash and expected receipts and payments. Enter positive cash amounts in the month they will move. The sheet calculates totals and closing balances. The instructions explain VAT, payroll and loan repayments to help avoid double-counting.

Where do I find my company reports?

These are public planning tools. Your company-specific documents remain in the client portal. For portal help, email clients@velderba.co.za.

Go straight to the source.

Calendar references: SARS filing season, PAYE, VAT obligations, provisional tax, CIPC annual returns and public holidays. Additional filing references are linked in the PDF.

Turn preparation into peace of mind.
