How to manage retention taxes?
|
||||
================================
|
||||
================================
|
||||
|
||||
A withholding tax, also called a retention tax, is a government
|
||||
requirement for the payer of a customer invoice to withhold or deduct
|
||||
tax from the payment, and pay that tax to the government. In most
|
||||
jurisdictions, withholding tax applies to employment income.
|
||||
|
||||
With normal taxes, the tax is added to the subtotal to give you the
|
||||
total to pay. As opposed to normal taxes, withholding taxes are deducted
|
||||
from the amount to pay, as the tax will be paid by the customer.
|
||||
|
||||
As, an example, in Colombia you may have the following invoice:
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: media/retention03.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, the **company** who sent the invoice owes $20 of taxes to
|
||||
the **government** and the **customer** owes $10 of taxes to the **government**.
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
In Odoo, a withholding tax is defined by creating a negative tax. For a
|
||||
retention of 10%, you would configure the following tax (accessible
|
||||
through :menuselection:`Configuration --> Taxes`):
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: media/retention04.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
|
||||
In order to make it appear as a retention on the invoice, you should set
|
||||
a specific tax group **Retention** on your tax, in the **Advanced Options**
|
||||
tab.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: media/retention02.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
|
||||
Once the tax is defined, you can use it in your products, sales order or
|
||||
invoices.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
If the retention is a percentage of a regular tax, create a Tax with a
|
||||
**Tax Computation** as a **Tax Group** and set the two taxes in this group
|
||||
(normal tax and retention).
|
||||
|
||||
Applying retention taxes on invoices
|
||||
====================================
|
||||
|
||||
Once your tax is created, you can use it on customer forms, sales order
|
||||
or customer invoices. You can apply several taxes on a single customer
|
||||
invoice line.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: media/retention01.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
When you see the customer invoice on the screen, you get only a
|
||||
**Taxes line** summarizing all the taxes (normal taxes & retentions).
|
||||
But when you print or send the invoice, Odoo does the correct
|
||||
grouping amongst all the taxes.
|
||||
|
||||
The printed invoice will show the different amounts in each tax group.
