Digital audit
The digital tax audit and the so-called summary risk assessment by the tax authorities are already in place. This has also changed the requirements for companies with electronic recording and storage of operational processes.
What has changed? The focus on formal errors.
Digital tax audits nowadays have long since ceased in solely assessing material errors. The search for formal errors (compliance with the law governing the principles for the orderly management and storage of books, records and documentation in electronic form and for data access – so-called GoBD act), correct cash management, etc.) and the examination of data from feeder systems (invoicing programs, merchandise management systems, cash register systems, etc.), which legislators have been able to access since 2002, have been increasingly taking precedence. For the tax authorities, these formal errors are relevant because they enable auditors to make an often considerable addition to the annual surplus/profit.
We will accompany you through the audit preparation
Secure archiving, the provision of data, quality assurance of accounting and annual financial statements all play a vital role in processes because booking errors, easily overlooked in the past due to infrequent tax audits or a data overload that was difficult to monitor, are more likely to be visible in a digital audit.
Early process support quality assurance ensures that the preparation for a tax audit takes place during the year at the same time as the preparation of the accounts and financial statements. The accounting data is checked monthly by auditing software similar to the one the tax authorities use. This means that errors can be detected and eliminated at an early stage, and any anomalies can be clarified and documented in advance.
Room for manoeuvre through additional preliminary assessments
Before the imminent tax audit, we also offer you a preliminary audit of your accounting data and the data of your feeder systems. We use software to check your data and can identify key audit areas in advance, thus creating valuable time for potential considerations and strategies for risk-avoidance. During the audit, a team of competent tax consultants will be at your disposal to represent you in the best possible way. And, of course, we will support you in preparing and conducting the final audit meeting. By then at the latest any prohibitions on utilization from the side of the tax office due to non-adherence to the regulations of electronic data access will be addressed.
