Older Versions

The new REST API Export Interface enables you to seamlessly export income tax data to external analysis and reporting systems such as Power BI, Tableau, or custom solutions. The interface features secure, role-based authentication via personal API keys, flexible control of export format and content, and optional data export in group or local currency.

The setup is straightforward: Generate an API token in the Tax Administration module and optionally configure position mapping.

The standardized interface provides direct access to tax data in real time and supports a modern, integrated financial reporting landscape.

Save valuable time by automating recurring manual tasks in current and deferred tax calculations. With a single click, proposed values are automatically accepted and tax calculations are performed. Milestones are completed in the correct sequence from current taxes through deferred taxes to the tax reconciliation (TRR).

The new workflow function is available under Interfaces | Structure in the Master Data folder. You can define up to three different automation processes depending on the materiality and complexity of your entities, reducing manual errors and supporting compliance requirements.

In view of the gradual reduction of German corporate tax beginning in 2028, Tax Accounting offers two calculation approaches for the correct determination of deferred taxes:

Precise calculation clusters temporary differences by estimated reversal date and assesses them using the applicable tax rate, while simplified calculation distinguishes between short-term reversing differences (15%) and long-term reversing differences (10%).

Tax Accounting now includes:

Both approaches ensure full compliance with the new statutory requirements and give you the flexibility to choose the calculation method that best suits your complexity and reporting requirements.

Tax Return introduces a completely redesigned submission process that replaces the previous Transfer Client with the new, modern Tax Transfer Hub. This strategic enhancement creates the foundation for a unified, cross-module submission architecture throughout the entire TCR solution. The three-step process guides you through:

The new solution features clear process separation with validation and submission as two separate processes and optimized progress tracking. This ensures full compliance with German tax authority requirements and makes the TCR solution more scalable and easier to maintain.

The new release of the Pillar 2 module provides significantly more options for creating QDMTT (Qualifying Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax) reports and providing the necessary information for QDMTTs.

The Jurisdictional Data Collection now allows you to adapt calculations to national legislation – for example, by entering different Top-up Tax Rates, Substance-Based Income Exclusion Percentages, or Deviating de Minimis Thresholds. Additionally, you can provide detailed information on currency elections and the GAAP used for the QDMTT.

This information is processed directly in the calculation when you select a QDMTT Snapshot. This new snapshot type forms the basis for QDMTT reports and is available for each country that has been designated as having a QDMTT in the Jurisdictional Data Collection. As a first step before we expand this process further, a QDMTT Snapshot can already be selected as the data source for the Global Information Return.

As non-material constituent entities (NMCEs) gain importance for reporting, a new workspace has been implemented in the calculation. All entities flagged as non-material entities are automatically included in the NMCE Safe Harbour. The Entity Election for the Non-material Entity Safe Harbour can be selected in Entity Election and general information for non-material entities, and the entity will be excluded from all subsequent calculations ( CE Calculation, Jurisdictional Blending).

To fully address the unique requirements of International Shipping Income, the Pillar 2 sub-module has been enhanced. The International Shipping workspace in the Entity Data Collection has been redesigned and expanded based on client needs. The CE Calculation has been adapted accordingly: International Shipping Income is now calculated at the bottom of the workspace, taking into account the cap on Ancillary Shipping Income. The aggregation for Jurisdictional Blending has been adjusted accordingly.

Following the BZSt's announcement not to use the DIP interface yet, the sub-module now provides ELMA XML download for the CbCR declaration. The XML file can be downloaded in the detail view of the snapshot.

The CbCR sub-module now offers the ability to export your Country-by-Country data as an Excel report, providing additional possibilities for further analysis.

From now on, the Pillar 2 and CbCR sub-modules can be used independently from the Tax Accounting and Tax Return sub-modules. This option reduces complexity while maintaining full access to all international tax compliance features. You benefit from cleaner navigation with module-specific interfaces tailored to your reporting requirements.

To ensure that data and procedures are verified before closing a milestone in Pillar 2 and CbCR, the following new options are now available: Closing Pillar 2 milestone, Reviewing Pillar 2 milestone, Closing CbCR milestone, and Reviewing CbCR milestone.

You can define your individual validations in an Excel report using the Reporting Engine. The new validation options can be set up under Interfaces | Structure in the Master Data folder of the Income Taxes module.

A milestone can only be increased to the next process status if the validation requirements have been fulfilled.

It is now possible to track import metadata to display import date and user information for Value Transfer, Income Tax, and External imports for Tax Questionnaire, CbCR, and Pillar 2. The import metadata is now included in technical ID reports (GTC-IDs).

Using the newly implemented REST interface, it is now possible to export values from the Entity Data Collection folders of Pillar 2, CbCR, and Tax Questionnaire, enabling you to further analyze the data in a BI tool, for example.
