Come and explore the latest features and improvements of our Country-by-Country-Reporting sub-module!

The versions of all solutions that you are currently using and those of the CFO Solution Platform are displayed when you select About Lucanet from the Help section in the CFO Solution Platform.

Apart from bug fixes and performance enhancements, the release contains the following new features:

In CbCR, a new drop-down field in CE Information lets you specify which financial statements are used for currency conversion for each entity: Local Statutory Financial Statements or Consolidated Financial Statements. This selection determines the exchange-rate methodology applied to balance-sheet items. Local Statutory Financial Statements applies the Average Exchange Rate to all values, in line with the OECD's CbCR guidance. Consolidated Financial Statements applies the Average Exchange Rate to flow items such as revenue, profit, and taxes, and the Period-End Rate to balance sheet items such as Stated Capital, Accumulated Earnings, and Tangible Assets.

The Transmission area can now generate the final filing files for Public CbCR. For the EU, an iXBRL file is created from the selected snapshot and can be used across all EU member states. For Australia, an XML file is generated in line with ATO specifications. Both files are created after the review process and are then available for download.

Apart from bug fixes and performance enhancements, the release contains the following new features:

The Country-by-Country Reporting (CbCR) module now supports public Country-by-Country Reporting (pCbCR). From now on, you can generate both traditional CbC reports (for submission to tax authorities) and public CbC reports (for public disclosure), enabling compliance with Directive (EU) 2021/2101 and Australian public CbCR requirements. With pCbCR, the following extensions have been introduced:

  • Snapshot types and basis: You can add pCbCR (EU) or pCbCR (Australia) or both to any new snapshot by activating the corresponding check box during snapshot creation.
  • Validation and submission: A separate XML file for each report type is available at the validations page.
  • Public disclosure sections: For every included pCbCR report there is an individual drop-down menu in the Calculation with five sections each.
  • Jurisdiction-specific reporting: EU and Australia schemas are supported.
  • Data collection: The Group Data Collection workspace is extended by the fields pCbC-1.1 and pCbC-1.2. Group data is displayed in Section 1. A dedicated workspace Add/omit public information is available for managing what is included or omitted in the public report. A separate workspace is provided for Material discrepancies explanations.

CbCR now supports the submission of CbC reports to tax authorities, including new returns, corrections, and deletions. You can now:

  • Start transmissions from the Transmission workspace
  • Choose the filing type (new, correction, or deletion) for the report:
    • Deletion reports are used for snapshots that have already been sent: when you select filing type Deletion, the snapshot list shows only snapshots from the same period that have been transmitted. The system generates an OECD3 XML with CorrDocRefID references to the original report so you can delete or correct previously submitted data at the tax authority as required.
    • Correction reports let you correct previously filed CbCR reports. You select a reference snapshot with the original data and the snapshot with corrected data. The system generates an OECD2 correction XML that references only the changed parts via CorrDocRefID, so the tax authority receives a partial correction instead of a full resubmission.
  • Generate XML reports, and use master data and XML output for stateless entities and identification numbers.

Apart from bug fixes and performance enhancements, the release contains the following new features:

With the integration of the Tax Transfer Hub, Lucanet is setting new standards for your CbCR reporting process:

  • Tax Transfer Hub as central hub: Manage the transmission and retrieval of all CbCR reports centrally in one place – for maximum efficiency and traceability.
  • Optimized submission workflow: Our completely redesigned submission workspace guides you through the reporting process even more intuitively, saving valuable time.
  • Full transparency at a glance: The new status overview displays the current status of all reports at any time and provides direct access to transmission logs.
