Calculate and post withholding tax settlements in the New Zealand version

  • Artigo

You can use the Calc. and Post WHT Settlement page to calculate and post the withholding tax (WHT). You can close WHT entries that are open or not settled and transfer the corresponding amount to the WHT settlement account.

The sum of all withheld amounts is reported as a truncated whole number to the New Zealand tax authorities.

Note

The truncated cents are accounted for in a rounding account.
