Tax statement
The tax statement calculates the levies due on gaming income: one line per tax period and per levy. The rules (which levies, at what rate, on what base) depend on your country and your licence: you set them. Lucky Touch never makes up a rate.
Set up the tax statement (administrator)
Section titled “Set up the tax statement (administrator)”- From the Fiscal screen, click Paramétrer → (Set up →) (or open Settings, group Rapports (Reports), section État fiscal (Tax statement)).
- État fiscal : activé (Tax statement: enabled): Oui (Yes).
- État fiscal : périodicité (Tax statement: frequency): Mensuelle (Monthly), Trimestrielle (Quarterly), Semestrielle (Half-yearly) or Annuelle (Yearly) (yearly = the fiscal year). The statement splits the requested range into fiscal periods; a period still under way is marked “provisoire” (provisional). Left on Non réglée (Not set), the frequency splits nothing: the statement covers the requested range as a single block.
- État fiscal : libellé du formulaire (form label) and référence du formulaire (form reference): the title and reference of the tax authority, printed on the statement.
- État fiscal : prélèvements (Tax statement: levies): one line per levy (10 at most) — a label, the rate in %, the base and, if you wish, the general ledger account. Leave a rate that is not known yet empty: the statement will say “taux non paramétré” (rate not set) rather than show a wrong amount.
- Save.
The three possible bases:
- Produit brut des jeux par les compteurs (net win) (Gross gaming income from the meters (net win));
- Recette caisse (Register takings) (register money in minus money out: withdrawals, manual payments that occurred, counter payouts; complimentary excluded);
- Mises par les compteurs (Bets from the meters).
Operations and finance read these settings but cannot change them.
Produce the statement
Section titled “Produce the statement”- Open Fiscal.
- Choose the period: a shortcut (Mois en cours (Current month), Mois précédent (Previous month), Trimestre écoulé (Last quarter), Exercice (Fiscal year)) or gaming day dates.
- Read the preview, then click Exporter (Export) and choose the format.
An amount that cannot be calculated says so (rate not set, base not measured or partial): never a zero in its place. A tax period not yet over is marked provisoire (provisional).
