Every day the VAT rates are checked against an official source: Opensolr’s VAT rates service when the installation has an Opensolr account, otherwise the EU’s TEDB service. A value that differs is recorded from the day it is seen and the superadmins get a mail. A failed check changes nothing.
- Open it from Instalare › Setări › Cote de impozitare (Installation › Settings › Tax rates).
- Two groups: Cotele de TVA ale României (VAT rates of Romania) and Cotele de TVA ale celorlalte state UE (VAT rates of the other EU countries). For each: Pornită (Turned on) or Oprită (Turned off), Ultima verificare (Last check), Ultima verificare reușită (Last good check), Sursă (Source) and Eroare (Error).
- Verifică acum (Check now) runs a check at once; the page shows its result when it ends.
- Both are off on a new installation.
- Tick Aplică automat modificările pentru: … (Apply the changes of the … by themselves) for the group you want, enter the code from the authenticator app and press Salvează (Save).
- On: a change is applied from the day it is seen. Off: it waits for your decision.
- When there are changes waiting, the tax rates page says so, with Vezi modificările (See the changes).
- Each change shows În tabel (In the table), La sursă (At the source) and the Sursă (Source) with when it was seen.
- Se aplică de la (Applies from): the day it was seen; change it when the law sets another date.
- Aplică (Apply) or Respinge (Dismiss), each with the code.
- Decis (Decided) lists the changes already decided, by whom, or automat (automatic).
Profit, micro-enterprise and dividend rates have no machine-readable source: they are written by hand. See Tax rates of the installation.
