Revenue Scotland will be updating the online tax collection system (SETS) on Friday 28 January 2022. This update will introduce a number of changes and enhancements to both the SETS portal and also internal back-office functionality.

Summary details of new functionality being introduced to the SETS portal:

  • Update 1: Users may now see banners on the homepage of the dashboard(pictured below). These will contain important messages relating to such issues as scheduled downtime and highlighting changes to legislation.
