Import from NowInfinity

You can integrate FYI with the market-leading provider NowInfinity, to automatically import the information from this third-party provider for your clients. Information is imported from NowInfinity overnight and automatically filed against the relevant client as a document in FYI.

The ASIC annual statements are displayed in the Client - Corporate Affairs tab. This provides a summary of the ASIC annual statements. This shows the current information from the ASIC register concerning the company such as the name of officeholders, registered address, share structure etc and the status of the statements (for example, if the annual review fee has been paid).

• Annual company statements are imported as PDFs from NowInfinity.
• ASIC documents are received as a Web Link to the document in NowInfinity, not the full documents as PDF.
• Signed copies of documents imported from NowInfinity are filed separately from unsigned copies in FYI. 
• Refer to Client Corporate Affairs.

Notes on the Import from NowInfinity

• NowInfinity documents are synced to FYI every day at 4 am. Any documents received after that time will be available in FYI the following day. The date and time of the Last Sync with NowInfinity can be found in the NowInfinity app in Automation - Apps. Refer to Connecting your NowInfinity account to FYI.
   
• The FYI automation matches on ACN and will only import documents where the ACN in NowInfinity matches the ACN in your practice management software. Any spaces in the ACN will be ignored. For practices integrated with Xero Practice Manager, the automation will only trigger documents to be imported if the client record in Xero Practice Manager contains the ACN, and the ACN is a direct match to what is held in NowInfinity. ACNs must be unique to a client, and not shared with any other client.
  
  Note: When connecting your NowInfinity account to FYI and Import unmatched document to In Tray is toggled "On", unmatched documents will be imported to the process Owner's In Tray. The owner can then manually file the unmatched documents to the correct client.
   
• NowInfinity gives you the ability to create companies, but you will only see documents if you have added the client to your ASIC agent number via form 362. Once the client has been added to your ASIC agent number, the FYI automation will then check NowInfinity for the incorporation documents and add a link to the client in FYI if it is able to match the ACN.
   
• To bundle the Company Statement and Invoice into a single collated PDF, change the Display Invoice As option to "A Part of Annual Statement" in NowInfinity. 
   
• 484 documents are not included in NowInfinity's API. As a result, these documents will not synchronise to FYI.
