Outgoing invoices, incoming invoices and e-invoices sit in the same system as your accounting. From them, the system creates the monthly advance VAT return (Umsatzsteuer-Voranmeldung) as ELSTER XML for the German tax office, and the annual EÜR (cash-basis profit statement) for small businesses.

VAT return & EÜR ERP

- **Pre-return:** monthly, as ELSTER XML
- **EÜR:** annual EÜR for small businesses
- **Check:** plausibility before the tax return
- **Also:** trade tax and income tax for sole traders

## From document to pre-return

The VAT is already on every document. The WorkOrderAgent collects it, so you do not have to hunt for it.

- Documents arrive: Text recognition reads the VAT from scanned documents. E-invoices from the mailbox land in the system as checked incoming invoices.
- Book: Deduct input tax and carry it over into the advance VAT return. Your outgoing invoices are already booked.
- Create the pre-return: The pre-return is created as ELSTER XML. If needed, the bookings go to your tax adviser as a DATEV CSV.

## What else is included

- Annual EÜR for small businesses: The cash-basis profit statement for the year, from the same bookings.
- Pre-check: A plausibility check before the tax return flags gaps, incorrect bookings and unusual tax rates.
- Trade tax and income tax: Calculation for sole traders, including the solidarity surcharge.
- GoBD-compliant: Lock period on booked documents, complete change log, sequential document numbers, procedure documentation at the push of a button, as required by GoBD (German rules for digital bookkeeping).
