I see that WZM has asked for the figures rounded to whole euros for the German tax report
This is also a feature of the Irish tax report, but I felt that the users could work the values out themselves when they entered the report to the revenue authorities website
Round down - ok I will have look but why down and not just round?
There will be rounding problems in any case, but I am going to lose any sleep over rounding differences and I donāt suppose tax authorities will either
I can add Round to the nearest too. Some tax authorities require you to round down, some round to the nearest, some to round up. So we will need at least 3 rounding methods eventually.
I donāt want to go down that road. Iāve noticed that some tax authorities allow you to mix rounding methods on single report āin your favourā so this really needs to be done per cell even if tedious.
@Patch it probably depends on tax authority. I imagine most do not care and either way is fine. The whole idea of reporting whole figures only is wrong to start with as it creates mess in double-entry accounting systems.
If tax authority insists on your method, then that will need to be solved with custom script on report transformation.
all tax authority have a worksheet. Most have rounding. All state later values are sum of earlier values. The issue is always there, what varies is if Manager implement local requirements or not
@lubos I appreciate this is inconvenient for Managers current localisation approach however if the jurisdictions worksheet didnāt require rounding of intermediate values, then they would not show intermediate values are to be rounded. Similarly the totals would be expressed in terms of full precision references not rounded intermediate values. However no tax authorities express their required tax calculation in that manner.
How do I get the new localisations into an existing business using the Windows Desktop version?
I have updated the business details to select Ireland as the country and the two new Report Transformations appear in the reports tab but neither the new tax codes nor tax reporting categories have been imported and appear in Setting.
The Tax Reporting categories do appear in the drop-down list when if I update my legacy Tax Codes but are not listed in the Settings/Tax Report Categories page
I have 5 legacy tax codes I previously used and which I cannot remove or delete - is this the reason?
Iām working on a mechanism that will generate a guide for each country to assist with existing businesses. Generally speaking, on your existing tax codes you just need to set reporting categories on them correctly. The guide will cover what reporting category to select on which tax code and how.
