Tax of Expense Mapping | UK & EU Compliant | Accounting & Bookkeeping Software UK.

Tax of Expense Mapping in Britixo ensures that any tax applied to an expense is automatically posted to the correct accounts. This helps maintain accurate tax records and reduces manual adjustments during reporting.

⚙️ Prerequisites

Before creating expenses with mapped taxes, make sure:

• ✅ Expense Default is enabled
  
  

• ✅ Tax Default is enabled
  
  

These ensure that both expense amounts and tax amounts are mapped correctly.

📝 Steps to Map Expense Taxes

1. ⚙️ Go to Accounting → Settings → Mapping Setup.
   
   

2. ✅ Enable Expense Default and Tax Default.
   
   

3. ➕ Create a Tax Mapping Setup for special tax rates (e.g., VAT 15%).
   
   

4. 🧾 Create an Expense and apply one or more tax rates.
   
   

📊 Result

• VAT 15% → mapped according to your custom Tax Mapping Setup.
  
  

• VAT 5% → mapped to the Tax Default account.
  
  

⚠️ Notes

• ❌ If Tax Default is turned off → taxes cannot be mapped to accounts, but the expense amount will still be mapped.
  
  

• ❌ If Expense Default is turned off → expenses will not be mapped automatically at all.
  
  

✅ Tip: Always create tax mappings for special VAT rates while keeping Tax Default active. This ensures all expense taxes flow into the right accounts without gaps.
