MEM Tax Reporting Entity Setup

Use this page to specify entity for which tax amounts are reported. The tax reporting entity is applicable for all tax jurisdictions and to all transactions. Tax jurisdictions are part of standard Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central functionality. For more information, see the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central documentation.

Review the following example on how this page is set up and the tax reporting is applied.

Entity Reporting Entity
000 000
800 000
900 000
500 500

Entities 000, 800, and 900 use entity 000 as the tax reporting entity. Entity 500 uses 500 as the tax reporting entity.

A sales order with a header entity 100 is created. The lines with the amount and tax amount are as follows: 

Entity Amount Tax Amount
000 100.00 5.00
800 50.00 2.50
900 200.00 10.00
500 1000.00 50.00

The journal entries are as follows: 

AR   1,417.50   100 (header entity)
  Revenue   100.00 000
  Tax Payable   5.00 000 (line entity)
  Revenue   50.00 800
  Tax Payable   2.50 000 (line entity - reporting entity)
  Revenue   200.00 900
  Tax Payable   10.00 000 (line entity - reporting entity)
  Revenue   1000.00 500
  Tax Payable   50.00 500 (line entity - reporting entity)

When reports are generated, the tax amounts for entities 000, 800, and 900 are consolidated to a single line for entity 000. Tax amounts for entity 500 are reported on a separate line for entity 500.
