Emirados Árabes Unidos¶

Instalação¶

Install the following modules to get all the features of the United Arab Emirates localization:

Plano de contas¶

Go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Chart of Accounts to view all default accounts available for the UAE localization package. You can filter by Code using the numbers on the far left or by clicking on Group By ‣ Account Type. You can Enable/Disable reconciliation or configure specific accounts according to your needs.

Impostos¶

To access your taxes, go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Taxes. Activate/deactivate, or configure the taxes relevant to your business by clicking on them. Remember to only set tax accounts on the 5% tax group, as other groups do not need closing. To do so, enable the developer mode and go to Configuration ‣ Tax Groups. Then, set a Tax current account (payable), Tax current account (receivable), and an Advance Tax payment account for the 5% group.

Currency exchange rates¶

To update the currency exchange rates, go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings ‣ Currencies. Click on the update button (🗘) found next to the Next Run field.

To launch the update automatically at set intervals, change the Interval from Manually to the desired frequency.

Folha de pagamento¶

The UAE - Payroll module creates the necessary salary rules in the Payroll app in compliance with the UAE rules and regulations. The salary rules are linked to the corresponding accounts in the chart of accounts.

Salary rules¶

To apply these rules to an employee’s contract, go to Payroll ‣ Contracts ‣ Contracts and select the employee’s contract. In the Salary Structure Type field, select UAE Employee.

Under the Salary Information tab, you can find details such as the:

• Wage;

• Housing Allowance;

• Transportation Allowance;

• Other Allowances;

• Number of Days: used to calculate the end of service provision.

End of service provision¶

The provision is defined as the total monthly allowance divided by 30 and then multiplied by the number of days set in the field Number of days at the bottom of a contract’s form.

The provision is then calculated via a salary rule associated with two accounts: the End Of Service Indemnity (Expense account) and the End of Service Provision (Non-current Liabilities account). The latter is used to pay off the end of service amount by settling it with the payables account.

Faturas¶

The UAE localization package allows the generation of invoices in English, Arabic, or both. The localization also includes a line to display the VAT amount per line.
