Enhancements for DATEV exports

The DATEV export has been enhanced to better support German accounting and tax requirements. These updates make it easier for customers and their tax advisors to rely on exported data for accurate DATEV processing.

Organizations can now extract accounting and tax data in a DATEV compliant format to import directly into the DATEV system used by financial and tax advisors in Germany.

What's changed

The DATEV export CSV files now include support for the following:

  • DATEV BU keys on tax details

  • Automatic and non-automatic GL accounts

  • Additional General Ledger booking information based on BU keys and automatic accounts

Key benefits

  • Enhanced support for DATEV requirements expected by German accountants and tax advisors

  • Improved accuracy of tax and General Ledger data exported to DATEV

How it works

Enter DATEV BU keys in the tax details. For tax details with BU keys, the BU key and the inclusive tax amount are included automatically in the DATEV export.
