Slovenian VAT ledgers
will become an obligation starting July 1, 2025, and will be introduced into OIC coverage as an onscreen listings report. E-filing capabilities will be added in a later release before the implementation date from the tax authority.

VAT returns/listings

Czechia intrastat:
Changed the format used in the
Invoiced Value
field to comply with the guidelines and now the amounts are rounded up instead of being rounded using mathematical rounding.
Czechia Control statement:
We resolved an issue causing duplicate line entries in Section B.2 of the Czechia VAT Control Statement when a single InvoiceID is recorded with multiple tax codes.
France intrastat:
Added a new
Negative amount flag
column to Intrastat Dispatches to provide better visibility for users of transactions that are imported with negative sign. The flag shows N when the amount in a hidden column E is negative whilst the Amount in Eur for reporting purposes is converted to positive amounts.
Slovakia control statement:
the formula in section C2 has been amended to reflect transactions related to Domestic Purchase under the 23% rate.
Spain VAT return
  • Users can now include the last section of the periodic return in the last period filing of the year. For e-filing purposes, an additional section is enabled only for the last submission of the year. Starting from the May release, a selector is introduced in the Company Information sheet, letting users decide whether to include this section, as it may not be required in certain specific scenarios.
  • We updated the name of sheet form 303 from "Form 303 - annual section of periodic return" to "Form 303/322 annual section of periodic return". This clarifies the sheet can be used for both forms 303 and 322, as it requires the same boxes for e-filing purposes.
  • We modified the logic so that form 322 can't be inserted on any single entity that doesn't belong to a group. It can be inserted on a group or a single entity that belongs to a group, rather than being inserted by default.
These changes apply to datasets created with start dates from June reporting periods onwards.

Tax codes

  • Slovakia: enabling a 5% tax rate for more tax codes, currently not all tax codes are set up with the reduced rate. This will be added for the following tax codes:
    • Intra-community acquisition of goods
    • Intra-community acquisition of goods – not recoverable
    • Import with deferment or license
    • Import without deferment or license
    • Domestic purchase of goods – reverse charge – non established supplier
  • Saudi Arabia: new tax codes have been added for reporting of partially recoverable input VAT:
    • Intra-GCC acquisition of goods - partially recoverable (including capital goods) – 5% reduced rate
    • Domestic purchase of services - partially recoverable – 5% reduced rate
    • Services purchased from non-GCC supplier - partially recoverable – 5% reduced rate
    • Intra-GCC acquisition of goods - partially recoverable (including capital goods) – 15% standard rate
    • Domestic purchase of services - partially recoverable – 15% standard rate
    • Services purchased from non-GCC supplier - partially recoverable – 15% standard rate
  • Poland: introduction of a new tax code to facilitate reporting of intra-community acquisitions of goods in a scenario where the reporting entity acts as party C in a triangular transaction. The tax code is set up to be included in the ESPL listing with the Triangular transaction indicator marked
    • Simplified triangulation: acquisition of goods by party C – 8%
    • Simplified triangulation: acquisition of goods by party C – 23%

E-filing and coverage expansion

Final updates to Poland SAF-T JPK_CIT:
We are excited to announce the release of the final version of the Poland SAF-T to JPK_CIT. This comprehensive update includes the JPK_KR_PD and JPK_ST_KR reports, ensuring full compliance with the latest regulatory requirements. The JPK_CIT is designed to streamline your tax reporting processes, providing a more efficient and accurate way to manage your financial data.
JPK_KR_PD report will be generated based on the data imported for the following import types:
  • DTR_Trial Balance
  • DTR_ GL Accounts

SAF-T

Changes to Tax Information Structure in SAFT Norway:
Norwegian Tax Authorities within the Schema update to version 1.30 has introduced some changes in TaxInformationStructure. The element TaxAmount has been removed and replaced with the choice elements, DebitTaxAmount, and CreditTaxAmount.Both elements DebitTaxAmount and CreditTaxAmount are mandatory in the new schema. Because Norwegian TA has both 0 and exempt rates, we enabled our client to report instances where there is a tax base but no tax rate. To do that, we decided to use a similar solution to what we already have in case of opening/closing balance in Norwegian SAF-T. When both sides (Debit and Credit) are equal to 0, we report it always on the debit side.
Enhancements to NO SAF-T to support XML generation for an Annual period:
We're announcing the latest enhancements to the NO_SAF-T report generation logic. These improvements ensure that the report can be generated for the annual period without any errors, fully complying with the tax authority (TA) requirements.
Segmentation
has been introduced to facilitate the generation of the report. Where
Segment 1
: Includes Header and General Ledger Entries and
Segment 2
: Includes Header and Master Files. To add additional details, the Master Files contain comprehensive data from:
  • Customers
  • Suppliers
  • Owners
  • GL Accounts
  • Tax Table
  • Analysis Type Table
Output generation:
  • On opting for the segmentation, multiple Files can be generated and zipped into a single folder.
    • File 1:
      contains data about the header and main files.
    • File 2:
      contains the header and general ledger entries.
  • If the segmentation is not opted, then
    a single XML file is generated with the complete data with header, main files, and general entries.
These enhancements provide greater flexibility and ensure compliance with Norway's SAF-T reporting requirements.

Returns

Fix for inability to delete calculations with failed (validation) status:
Addressed an issue where users were unable to delete calculations that had a status of Failed (Validation). This update ensures that you can now easily remove any calculations that don’t pass validation.

Imports

Enhanced advanced import functionality:
The
Advanced Import
now supports importing data for multiple entities from a single file. Users will need to include entity and reporting dates in their source files, enabling efficient data management and streamlined data flow across returns.

Reports

Performance improvements to JPK VAT report:
In our continuous efforts to enhance the performance of reporting functionalities within ONESOURCE Indirect Compliance (OIC), we significantly improved the performance of the JPK_VAT reports, one of the most used Digital Tax Reporting tools. After the enhancement, users experience a 94% improvement in the report's runtime for 500,000 transactions. The report can handle volumes of up to 2 million transactions without processing issues.
These improvements enable efficient report generation for large datasets, reducing processing times and enhancing overall system performance.
GL Reconciliation Difference in total revenue:
This new standard report introduced in the current release will reconcile the total revenue from the AR transactional file with the total revenue from the trial balance, enhancing your ability to track and analyze revenue data accurately.
  • GL Account
    column will show the account number which is the match field for this reconciliation report.
  • Amount Net
    column will show the aggregate Amount Net from the "Total by GL Account" report.
  • The PTD Balance
    column will show the aggregate Amount Net from the "Total by GL account - GL transactions" report.

Norway - summary by tax code with source entity:
A new standard report has been introduced this release that provides insights into transactions made per
tax classification code
and
source entity
for a selected group of entities for Norway. This report can be generated on the screen, in Excel, and API.
Count of all active Returns report:
The new standard report provides the total count of all active returns within a time range irrespective of the return/filing status. For a multi-client database, this report will show the information relevant to all the clients within the database for the system administrator users. However, for a single database, the details will outline all returns within that single client. Return creation date will be the criteria to consider the data from this report. This report can be generated on the screen, in Excel, and API.
  • Report output when it's generated by an individual client.
  • Report output when it's generated by the System administrator client.
Enhancement to descriptions of all Standard reports:
We revised all standard reports in ONESOUCE Indirect Tax Compliance to ensure clarity and to maintain accuracy to what the report analyzes. This improvement aims to provide you with more precise and helpful information, enhancing your ability to interpret and utilize the reports effectively.
Resolved the incorrect currency symbol displayed in the dashboard report:
Resolved an issue for the incorrect currency symbol ("K?") being displayed for Czechia jurisdiction instead of the correct currency symbol ("Kč") in the
Dashboard Report
. This fix ensures that all currency symbols now accurately reflect the intended values, providing a more reliable experience for our users.
