[Bug 707923] Re: [6.0 and 5] invoice tax - rounding issue

 

I'm with you, Conrad, at "hardly suitable for the German market", but it is _not_ a bug, neither are there real rounding errors.
See my post above on vertical and horizontal calculation.

It is all about acceptance.

Most German companies use vertical calculation.

Our own accounting department, which is very experienced, did not know about horizontal accounting before I (then a freelancer) wrote the first invoice with Lexware Büro easy. Neither did my tax consultant.
The company actually recalculated vertical and payed some cents less, which would have resulted in a (small) tax felony... (but I booked it as discount).

We use 19% here, so the calculation type rounding issues are not as
obvious as with Ferdinands 10%, but customers *will* notice and wonder
about it.

So, if there already is a feedback poll?, we would be glad to support
it. Or open one.


Regards,
Marco

Title:
  [6.0 and 5] invoice tax - rounding issue

Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  see attachment

  due to rounding of the calculated tax for each position we get totals
  which are wrong.

  In Austria we usually group the basis per tax rate and calculate the
  tax from this basis to avoid such errors.

  in account/invoice.py
  class account_invoice_tax  - 
  def compute must be modified 

  actually only some lines of code to group the invoice lines before
  calculating the tax

  probably this has been discussed (but not solved) already
