Tax Point Date Adjustment

Use the Tax Point Date Adjustment feature to change the tax point date on Payables and Receivables transactions at the header or line level, as required for VAT reporting in many EU countries.

The feature supports adjustment based on manual entry, spreadsheet import, or automated rule-based configuration, and is available in countries including Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, and Slovenia. Adjustments can be applied individually, in bulk, or using predefined rules linked to fiscal classification or process parameters.
