Was Your Invoice Rejected Over a Few Cents? Discover How Etendo Solves Rounding and Accounting Imbalance Issues

With the Invoice Tax Adjustment functionality in Etendo, included in the Financial Extensions Bundle and available since Etendo 23, companies can adjust their tax amounts down to the cent, keep their accounting balanced, and ensure total precision in reports and integrations — regardless of the currency used.

The problem: invisible rounding and imbalance issues that create major headaches

In day-to-day operations, invoicing and accounting systems don’t always calculate taxes in the same way. Even a tiny rounding variation between platforms can cause:

• Automatic rejections when sending electronic invoices.
• Integration errors due to mismatched totals.
• Customer invoice totals that differ from those generated in Etendo due to different rounding methods.
• Accounting entries out of balance by a few cents.
• Time wasted on manual corrections and reconciliations.

Most traditional ERPs don’t offer a controlled way to fix these issues without modifying the entire invoice or altering accounting records. Etendo changes that.

The Etendo solution: Invoice Tax Adjustment

The Adjust Invoice Tax module enables a controlled adjustment on the tax lines of an invoice — whether sales or purchase — directly from the “Tax” tab.
Each tax line can be modified within a limited range (± 0.01 in the invoice currency) to ensure the final total matches exactly with the external system or the values required by tax entities.

Key features

• Available only when the invoice is in Draft status, ensuring traceability.
• Applies to tax lines where both the base amount and tax amount are greater than zero.
• Every modification is recorded for auditing and internal control.

This ensures that invoices in Etendo align perfectly — both in their totals and their accounting impact — maintaining full data integrity.

Practical example

A company issuing invoices notices small differences between Etendo and its fiscal validation system. Thanks to the Invoice Tax Adjustment feature, it can:

1. Open the customer or supplier invoice in Draft status.
2. Adjust the amounts in the Tax tab within the allowed range.
3. Save the changes — adjustments are automatically logged.
4. Post the final invoice with no errors or imbalances.

The result: clean integrations, balanced accounting, and zero rejections due to rounding differences — no matter the currency.
