The first step of the annual tax reporting is to read payroll results, cumulate amounts and make them and other additional information available to further processing steps.

In this step you will create a list of wage types that should be reported on tax declarations of employees in your HR system. You specify some properties of the wage types to control this first processing step. The properties you specify is the cumulation category, where earned and if sign has to be changed for annual tax reporting.

This list is the basis for further processing during the creation of tax declarations in the annual tax reporting.

Cumulation category

The category basically determines what payroll information are made available to further processing steps of the annual tax reporting.

01 - Basic
02 - Basic with payroll period
03 - Loans
04 - Company car
05 - Basis for holiday allowance
06 - Travel expenses

These categories describe what payroll information are made available for the mapping of wage type information to tax codes.

If a wage type is in category 01 (Basic), then amounts and numbers are cumulated over the whole year but separated by company.

If a wage type is in category 02 (Basic with payroll period), then the amounts are not cumulated but mapped to a tax code using the begin and end date of the payrol period.

The other categories are application specific.

Where earned

There are separate tax declarations for Svalbard, seamen and mainland. Wages earned as seaman are detected using the seaman flag in the taxcard infotype. If an employee is working on Svalbard, the period working there has to be entered into infotype "Manual tax reporting information" using a wagetype mapping to tax code 913A.

By default the tax declaration chosen is based on the seaman flag and the period working at Svalbard. It is possible to overwrite this by specifying that a wage type is earned at Svalbard or on mainland.

For processing correction values during Annual Tax Statement (ATS) reporting, set the Earned value to C (Correction Wage type). To create your own correction wage types, copy the Correction Wage Type (CLTO) and set the Earned value to C (Correction Wage type).

Changing sign

If a deduction wage type is stored with negative sign, then the sign has to be changed since only tax code 119 is allowed to have negative amounts. Setting the check box ATSGC (Change sign) it is possible to change the sign of an amount field of a wage type prior to the mapping to a tax code.

Example

  1. Wage type /130 contains deducted union dues. Since the cumulated amounts have to be reported category 01 is used.
  2. The amount is stored as deduction with negative sign. With flag 'Change sign = X' this can be changed to a positive amount for reporting.
  3. Wage type /327 and /337 both describe earned holiday allowance. They need special handling, since their value has to be read from the cumulated result table from the end of the year. For special handling of holiday allowances category 05 is used.
