Tax Island

Field Description
Entry Type If the current entry is related to tax calculation, this field shows the nature of the relation.

If the entry type is “Tax Receivable” or “Tax Payable,” the entry is a tax entry created in connection with tax calculation for sales or purchases. If the entry type is “Tax Basis,” the entry is a G/L entry on the basis of which tax entries have been created, for instance the G/L entry representing an invoice for taxable items. If the field contains a different value, the entry is a tax entry for one of the tax types set up in the Tax Codes and G/L Tax Codes windows.

Tax Date In some countries, legal requirements demand that the entry date of each registration is what determines the tax settlement period in which the entry belongs, while in other countries, the period is determined by the invoice date of the registration. In this field, you can specify for the current tax reporting unit which of the two methods should apply to companies belonging to the reporting unit.

Each G/L entry contains a field called “Tax Date” to which either the entry date or the invoice date of the registration depending on the value in this field on the tax reporting unit assigned to the company which the entry concerns is automatically transferred when the entry is posted. When you create tax settlements in the Tax Settlement window, Maconomy uses the tax date registered on each individual G/L entry to determine whether the entry is covered by the period for which settlement is carried out.

EU Tax If the entry type is Tax Basic, EU Tax gets a value if the related tax code is an EU tax code.
