You can use the export function in Tax Balance to export a CSV file with the following data:

  • Balance sheet and account data from the tax balance sheet
  • Four calculated special items for tax groups:
    • Surplus transfers prior to the tax group (key: tax-balance-special-position-pre-tax-group-remittance-surplus)
    • Deficit transfers prior to the tax group (key: tax-balance-special-position-pre-tax-group-remittance-shortfall)
    • Surplus transfers within the tax group (key: tax-balance-special-position-tax-group-remittance-surplus)
    • Deficit transfers within the tax group (key: tax-balance-special-position-tax-group-remittance-shortfall)

This file can then be imported into the Income Taxes module.

You can also initiate the import of Tax Balance data directly in the Income Taxes module of the Tax Compliance & Reporting solution. For detailed instructions, see Import Suite.
