country

Under Country, select the country where you want to use your Hypersoft Suite. If the country is not included in the selection, the software has not yet been used there. Operation in countries not offered for selection has not yet been carried out and is therefore not permitted with certainty.

Depending on the country, special requirements can be placed on the programme. This can also result in additional costs. Whenever you buy a Hypersoft program, we assume that you want to use it in the country where you order it. If the place of use deviates from this, you must inform us in writing when ordering.

See English and international version.

Should you wish to use Hypersoft Suite in countries other than those described, this is project work subject to planning:

This topic concerns project work that is subject to planning.

The Hypersoft // system is a standard programme that can be used in many different configurations. The correct application of the topics described here requires expert knowledge and an alignment of expectations, and not all Hypersoft employees and partners are equally trained in all of the topics labelled in this way. For this reason, we characterise these topics as project work requiring planning, so that you can contact your Hypersoft sales partner or Hypersoft Support in good time with this necessary planning. This approach ensures that we record your requirements carefully and respond to them in a targeted manner.


Federal state and region Under Federal state, select the federal state of the respective permanent establishment. The Hypersoft Suite is oriented towards this in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, for example, with regard to public holiday tables (and the tax-free surcharge calculation in Germany) which are also used for the Advanced timing. Under Region, you can select special regions for some federal states if we have relevant information to the contrary.
tax rates

VAT rates are used for purchasing and selling and for creating vouchers. Up to 7 blocks with three decimal places can be entered.

A reference to the respective VAT rate is created in the program by selection, so that changes to the tax can be set globally here.

If you have an existing system, make only the most necessary changes. It is essential that they do not make unnecessary changes to VAT. Sentences, since these are linked to items by reference. By referencing, you can make adjustments to the value assigned to the respective tax rate in the event of tax changes (note: the posting journal securely stores the rate used with and at the time of the posting).

 

The accounting journal of the POS system shows the VAT valid at the time of the entry. record together with the item posting in such a way that the historical transaction data remains stored correctly even after a later conversion of the VAT rates.

 

Changes in tax rates in an ongoing operation have a significant impact on the calculation of reports and financial statements and should therefore always be made with care.
