Add Fiscal Positions

[mlaitinen]

We need to create fiscal positions for partners & invoices. At least the following come in my mind atm:

• Normal taxes (24 % purchase & sale VAT. Tax Source: Purchase VAT 24 %, Replacement Tax: VAT 24 %)
• Tax exempt (0 %, for example a rent without tax)
• Sales & purchases inside EU (reverse charge. in the tax report we need to report the 24 % vat as sales tax, but we can deduct 24 % so basically it's 0 % VAT, but has to be reported)
• Sales & purchases outside EU (not sure if "Tax exempt" could be used here". need to consult an accountant)

You can use the fiscal positions to automatically convert national taxes to the required intracommunal or export taxes, according to the fiscal position specified for the customer or supplier.

Fiscal positions allow you to make a mapping from national taxes to intracommunal or export taxes, or to map your accounts according to these criteria. You can link fiscal positions to your customers and suppliers to ensure automatic and easy VAT conversion when posting entries.
