| iLaw Service Pack 33 - January 2010
Service Pack 33 includes key inclusions to both the Crime and Family modules. The reporting process for the Immigration CMRF has also been updated after recent clarification concerning Detention Travel and Waiting costs.
The Crime Module now includes a report for all Litigators and Advocates Crown Court Graduated Fee Scheme claims. If you have not purchased the GradFees module for producing the advocates claim then only the Litigators Fee Claims will show. The Family module has been revised to let you create and print the CLSPOA1 for payments on Account for Claim 1 and Claim 1A profit costs and disbursements.
SP33 Contents
Crime Module: The Crown Court Report
Family Module: CLSPOA1 Claims
Immigration Module: Detention Travel for non Graduated fee Claims

| Vat Rate Change January 2010
The Vat Rate is due to change back to 17.5% on 1st January 2010. You are able to make the necessary changes to your iLaw Case Management, GradFees 3 and iLaw Advocate 2 software in the Vat Rates screen from the Setup option. Users of GradFees version 1 or 2 will need to follow a different procedure.
iLaw Case Management
1. Click on Setup from the main iLaw menu. Then select Vat Rates. When the screen opens make sure that the Standard Vat rate is selected on the left side of the screen. The Vat rates for this rate show in the Stored rates for Tarriff section. There will be two existing rows with the second having an effective date of 01/12/2008 at 15%. The Vat Rate with the most recent effective date will be the Vat Rate the system will use.
2. Click on Add New Rate. In the new row that has appeared, enter 01/01/2010 as the Effective Date and 17.5% as the Vat Rate (%).
You only need to enter this on one workstation. Remember that the Vat Rate applicable for claims and submissions will be dependant on the date entered for when the work concluded and you should also keep in mind that it is only when a matter has been billed that you see the vat rate calculate. True disbursements will also have to be checked in the billing screen as shown below.
iLaw Advocate and GradFees 3
1. Click on Setup from the task bar. Then select Vat Rates from the list of options. The Vat rates show in the Stored rates for Tarrif section. There will be two existing rows with the second one having an effective date of 01/12/2008 at 15%.
2. Click on Add New Rate. In the new row that has appeared, enter 01/01/2010 as the effective date and 17.5% as the rate.
