Fiscal positions (tax and account mapping)
|
|
==========================================
|
|
|
|
Default taxes and accounts are set on products and customers to create new transactions on the fly.
|
|
However, depending on the customers' and providers' localization and business type, using different
|
|
taxes and accounts for a transaction might be necessary.
|
|
|
|
**Fiscal positions** allow the creation of rules to adapt the taxes and accounts used for a
|
|
transaction automatically.
|
|
|
|
They can be applied :ref:`automatically <fiscal_positions/automatic>`, :ref:`manually
|
|
<fiscal_positions/manual>`, or :ref:`assigned to a partner <fiscal_positions/partner>`.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
Several default fiscal positions are available as part of your :ref:`fiscal localization
|
|
package <fiscal_localizations/packages>`.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
.. _fiscal_positions/mapping:
|
|
|
|
Tax and account mapping
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
To edit or create a fiscal position, go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Fiscal
|
|
Positions`, and open the entry to modify or click on :guilabel:`New`.
|
|
|
|
The mapping of taxes and accounts is based on the default taxes and accounts defined in the
|
|
product form.
|
|
|
|
- To map to another tax or account, fill out the right column (:guilabel:`Tax to Apply`/
|
|
:guilabel:`Account to Use Instead`).

|
|
|
|
- To remove a tax, leave the field :guilabel:`Tax to Apply` empty.
|
|
- To replace a tax with several other taxes, add multiple lines using the same :guilabel:`Tax on
|
|
Product`.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
The mapping only works with *active* taxes. Therefore, make sure they are active by going to
|
|
:menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Taxes`.
|
|
|
|
Application
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
.. _fiscal_positions/automatic:
|
|
|
|
Automatic application
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
To automatically apply a fiscal position following a set of conditions, go to
|
|
:menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Fiscal Positions`, open the fiscal position to
|
|
modify, and tick :guilabel:`Detect Automatically`.
|
|
|
|
From there, several conditions can be activated:
|
|
|
|
- :guilabel:`VAT Required`: the customer's VAT number must be present on their contact form.
|
|
- :guilabel:`Country Group` and :guilabel:`Country`: the fiscal position is only applied to the
|
|
selected country or country group.
|
|
|
|

|
:alt: Example of a fiscal position automatic application settings
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
- If the :doc:`Verify VAT Numbers <vat_verification>` feature is enabled, any fiscal positions
|
|
with :guilabel:`VAT required` enabled will require Intra-Community valid VAT numbers to apply
|
|
automatically.
|
|
- Taxes on **eCommerce orders** are automatically updated once the customer has logged in or
|
|
filled out their billing details.
|
|
|
|
.. important::
|
|
The fiscal positions' **sequence** defines which fiscal position is applied if all conditions
|
|
set on multiple fiscal positions are met simultaneously.
|
|
|
|
For example, suppose the first fiscal position in a sequence targets *country A* while the second
|
|
fiscal position targets a *country group* that comprises *country A*. In that case, only the
|
|
first fiscal position will be applied to customers from *country A*.
|
|
|
|
.. _fiscal_positions/manual:
|
|
|
|
Manual application
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
To manually select a fiscal position, open a sales order, invoice, or bill, go to the
|
|
:guilabel:`Other Info` tab and select the desired :guilabel:`Fiscal Position` before adding product
|
|
lines.

|
.. _fiscal_positions/partner:
|
|
|
|
Assign to a partner
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
To define which fiscal position must be used by default for a specific partner, go to
|
|
:menuselection:`Accounting --> Customers --> Customers`, select the partner, open the
|
|
:guilabel:`Sales & Purchase` tab, and select the :guilabel:`Fiscal Position`.
