Accounting
|
||||
==========
|
||||
|
||||
The chart of accounts SKR03 and SKR04 are both supported in Odoo. You can choose the
|
||||
one you want by going in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration` then choose the
|
||||
package you want in the Fiscal Localization section.
|
||||
Chart of accounts
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
Be careful, you can only change the accounting package as long as you have not created any accounting entry.
|
||||
Both SKR03 and SKR04 charts of accounts are supported in Odoo. When you create a new Odoo Online
|
||||
database, SKR03 is installed by default.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
Verify which is installed by going to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings`
|
||||
and checking the :guilabel:`Package` field under the :guilabel:`Fiscal Localization` section.
|
||||
|
||||
When you create a new Odoo Online database, the SKR03 is installed by default.
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
Selecting another package is only possible if you have not created an accounting entry. If one
|
||||
was posted, a new company or database must be set up to select another package. In
|
||||
addition, all journal entries will need to be created again.

|
||||
|
||||
Here is the list of German-specific reports available on Odoo Enterprise:
|
||||
The following German-specific reports available on Odoo Enterprise:
|
||||
|
||||
- Balance Sheet
|
||||
- Profit & Loss
|
||||
- Tax Report (Umsatzsteuervoranmeldung)

|
||||
Exporting entries from Odoo to DATEV
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to export your accounting entries from Odoo to Datev. To be able to use this
|
||||
feature, the german accounting localization needs to be installed on your Odoo Enterprise database.
|
||||
Then you can go in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Reporting --> General Ledger` then click on the
|
||||
**Export Datev (csv)** button.
|
||||
Provided that one of the German :ref:`fiscal localization packages
|
||||
<fiscal_localizations/accounting>` is installed, you can export your accounting entries from Odoo to
|
||||
DATEV from the general ledger.

Point of Sale in Germany: Technical Security System
|
||||
===================================================
|
||||
|
||||
The **Kassensicherungsverordnung** (The Act on Protection against Manipulation of Digital Records)
|
||||
requires that electronic record-keeping systems - including the :doc:`point of sale
|
||||
</applications/sales/point_of_sale>` systems - must be equipped with a **Technical Security System**
|
||||
(also called **TSS** or **TSE**).
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo offers a service that is compliant with the help of `fiskaly <https://fiskaly.com>`_, a
|
||||
*cloud-based solution*.
|
||||
|
||||
.. important::
|
||||
Since this solution is cloud-based, a working internet connection is required.
|
||||
Two types of exports are needed: first the DATEV ATCH export, then the DATEV DATA export.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
The only VAT rates allowed are given by fiskaly. You can check these rates by consulting:
|
||||
`fiskaly DSFinV-K API: VAT Definition
|
||||
<https://developer.fiskaly.com/api/dsfinvk/v0/#tag/VAT-Definition>`_.
|
||||
Both are needed at different stages to transfer the data correctly to DATEV, as DATEV works with
|
||||
two interfaces, one for clients (DUO - DATEV Unternehmen Online) and one for tax advisors (DATEV
|
||||
Rechnungswesen).
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
-------------
|
||||

||||
Register your company at the financial authority
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
The DATEV ATCH ZIP file includes the files (reports) linked to an Odoo invoice or bill. For
|
||||
customer invoices, the file must have been generated by using the :guilabel:`Send` button. For
|
||||
vendor bills, the file must have been received via an email alias or uploaded by using the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Upload` button.
|
||||
|
||||
To register your company, go to :menuselection:`Settings --> General Settings --> Companies -->
|
||||
Update Info`, fill out the following fields and *Save*.
|
||||
.. admonition:: DATEV ATCH ZIP file
|
||||
|
||||
- **Company name**
|
||||
- Valid **address**
|
||||
- **VAT** number
|
||||
- **St.-Nr** (Steuernummer): this number is assigned by the tax office to every taxable natural or
|
||||
legal person. (e.g., `2893081508152`)
|
||||
- **W-IdNr** (Wirtschafts-Identifikationsnummer): this number is used as a permanent
|
||||

|
||||
The ZIP file contains two types of files:
|
||||
|
||||
You can then **register your company through fiskaly** by opening the *fiskaly* tab and clicking on
|
||||
the *fiskaly Registration* button.
|

These unique IDs are essential as they allow DATEV to automatically link the files to the
|
||||
individual journal items, which will be imported with the DATEV DATA file in the next step.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
If you do not see the *fiskaly Registration* button, make sure that you *saved* your company
|
||||
details and are not in *editing mode* anymore.
|
||||
2. DATEV DATA
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Once the registration has been finalized, new fields appear:
|
||||
Go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Reporting --> General Ledger`, click the :icon:`fa-cog`
|
||||
(:guilabel:`Actions`) button, and select :guilabel:`Datev DATA (zip)`.
|
||||
|
||||
- **fiskaly organization ID** refers to the ID of your company at the fiskaly side.
|
||||
- **fiskaly API key** and **secret** are the credentials the system uses to access the services
|
||||
offered by fiskaly.
|
||||
Transfer the downloaded ZIP file to your tax advisor. They should import the ZIP file into DATEV
|
||||
Rechnungswesen.

|
||||
|
||||
To use your point of sale in Germany, you first have to create a :abbr:`TSS (Technical Security
|
||||
System)` for it.
|
||||
|
||||
To do so, go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Configuration --> Point of Sale`, open the point
|
||||
of sale you want to edit, then check the box next to **Create TSS** and *Save*.

Once the creation of the TSS is successful, you can find your **TSS ID** and **Client ID** under the
|
||||
*fiskaly API* section.
|
||||
|
||||
- **TSS ID** refers to the ID of your TSS at fiskaly's side.
|
||||
- **Client ID** refers to your PoS but at fiskaly's side.

Whenever you close a PoS session, the orders' details are sent to the :abbr:`DSFinV-K (Digitale
|
||||
Schnittstelle der Finanzverwaltung für Kassensysteme)` service of fiskaly.
|
||||
|
||||
In case of an audit, you can export the data sent to DSFinV-K by going to :menuselection:`Point of
|
||||
Sale --> Orders --> DSFinV-k exports`.
|
||||
|
||||
These fields are mandatory:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Name**
|
||||
- **Start Datetime** (export data with dates larger than or equal to the given start date)
|
||||
- **End Datetime** (export data with dates smaller than or equal to the given end date)
|
||||
|
||||
Leave the **Point of Sale** field blank if you want to export the data of all your points of sale.
|
||||
Specify a Point of Sale if you want to export this specific PoS' data only.
|
||||
|
||||
The creation of a DSFinV-K export triggers on export at fiskaly's side.

German Tax Accounting Standards: Odoo's guide to GoBD Compliance

GoBD compliance

**GoBD** stands for *Grundsätze zur ordnungsmäßigen Führung und Aufbewahrung von Büchern,

Aufzeichnungen und Unterlagen in elektronischer Form sowie zum Datenzugriff*.
|
||||
In short, it is a **guideline for the proper management and storage of books, records, and documents
|
||||
in electronic form, as well as for data access**, that is relevant for the German tax authority, tax
|
||||
declaration, and balance sheet.

|
||||
|
||||
These principles have been written and published by the Federal Ministry of Finance (BMF) in
|
||||
November 2014. Since January 2015, **they have become the norm** and replace previously accepted
|
||||
practices linked to computer-based accounting. Several changes have been made by the BMF in 2019 and
|
||||
January 2020 to specify some of the content and due to the development of digital solutions (cloud

Understanding GoBD in relation to accounting software

modification date, and who modified it. In addition, relevant fields are tracked thus it can be

Do you need a GoBD-Export?
|

--------------------------
|

GoBD export
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
In the case of fiscal control, the fiscal authority can request three levels of access to the
|
||||
accounting system (Z1, Z2, Z3). These levels vary from direct access to the interface to the
|
||||
handover of the financial data on a storage device.
|
||||
|
||||
In case of a handover of the financial data on a storage device, the format is **not** enforced by
|
||||
the GoBD. It can be, for example, in XLS, CSV, XML, Lotus 123, SAP-format, AS/400-format, or else.
|
||||
Odoo supports the CSV and XLS-export of financial data out-of-the-box. The GoBD **recommends** the
|
||||
export in a specific XML-based GoBD-format (see "Ergänzende Informationen zur
|
||||
Datenntträgerüberlassung" §3) but it is not binding.

What is the role and meaning of the compliance certification?
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Non-compliance
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The GoBD clearly states that due to the nature of a state of the art accounting software, their
|
||||
configuration possibilities, changing nature, and various forms of use, **no legally binding
|
||||
certification can be given**, nor can the software be made liable towards a public authority.
|
||||
Third-party certificates can indeed have **an informative value** for customers to make software
|
||||
buying decisions but are by no means legally binding or of any other legal value (A. 12, § 181).
|
||||
In the event of an infringement, you can expect a fine and a court order demanding the
|
||||
implementation of specific measures.
|
||||
|
||||
A GoBD certificate states nothing more than that if you use the software according to its
|
||||
guidelines, the software will not refrain you from respecting the GoBD. These certifications are
|
||||
very expensive in terms of time and cost, and their value is very relative. Thus we focus our
|
||||
efforts on ensuring GoBD compliance rather than pay for a marketing tool which does not, however,
|
||||
offer our customer any legal certainty.

-------------------------
|

|

The **Kassensicherungsverordnung** (The Act on Protection against Manipulation of Digital Records)
|
||||
requires that electronic record-keeping systems - including the :doc:`point of sale
|
||||
</applications/sales/point_of_sale>` systems - must be equipped with a **technical security system**
|
||||
(also called **TSS** or **TSE**).

The BMF actually states the following in the `Official GoBD text

Since this solution is cloud-based, a working internet connection is required.

- 180. Positive attestations on the correctness of the bookkeeping - and thus on the correctness
|

of IT-based bookkeeping systems - are not issued either in the context of a tax field audit or

in the context of binding information.

||||
- 181. "Certificates" or "attestations" from third parties can serve as a decision criterion for

the company when selecting a software product, but develop from the in margin no. 179 is not
