VAT reduction - economic stimulus package 2020

What does this mean for you and your existing ERP solution?

On 03.06.2020 the planned economic stimulus package of the Federal Government was presented. A central point is the reduction of the value-added tax from 19% to 16% and for the reduced rate from 7% to 5% - for the next six months. This change is to come into force already on 01.07.2020. The Austrian government will also temporarily reduce the value-added tax for gastronomy, culture and media to five percent, which thus also includes books.

What does this mean for you and your existing solution?

With the change of the VAT rate, the necessary facilities are required in your Dynamics NAV / Dynamics 365 Business Central solution. In addition, a conversion of the existing documents (e.g. quotation, orders, purchase orders, etc.) and further measures are required on the effective date.
