    Open source development

    This report is been developed and maintained with an open source approach.
    Banana makes available the development resource, but the software is maintained and upgraded only if we have users that provide help.

    If you use this extension and you would like to have it updated, kindly help us develop further:

    • Test case file data 2024.
      Kindly prepare and send us per email an accounting file that is anonymized, with real amounts that make use of all VAT codes.
    • Kindly check the results and let us know how they work (even if they work fine).

    Amounts conversion to CHF

    If the base accounting currency is not CHF, the VatTaxable, VatPosted, VatAmount are in the base currency.
    The amounts are converted to CHF using these rules:

    • If the transaction currency is CHF:
      • It will be used the exchange rate of the transactions.
      • VAT will have the same CHF amounts.
    • If the transaction currency is not CHF:
      • It will be used the average monthly exchange rate.
      • The average monthly exchange rate is considered to be the one of the 15. of each month (2024-01-15, 2024-02-15).
      • You should enter in the Exchange rate table the average exchange rates for the currencies used.
      • If the exchange rate with 15 of the Month is not found, it will be used the one older then the 15.

    Reports
