Tax calculation for trading partnerships and limited partnerships

Trading and limited partnerships are supported for financial years ending on or after 31 December 2023. Currently, the regulation Annual Accounts Regulation (BFNAR 2017:3) is supported.

Under Year-end closing - Tax calculation you will find everything you need to calculate the taxable profit to be distributed among the partners.

You do adjustments to the result according to Swedish tax regulations in the section Calculations - Profit/loss before appropriations. Click on each of the items to make adjustments in the screen to the right. The adjustments affect Profit - surplus/deficit.

Keep in mind that each partner's results must be bookkept. The program does not automatically handle this accounting action and it has to be done manually. If you have not already entered the profit/loss in the bookkeeping, you can add a closing entry for it. Read how to do this in the topic Closing entries.

When an field in this section corresponds with an field on a tax form, the entered value will be transferred tthere. You find the tax forms under Year-end closing - Tax forms.

Mark complete to keep track!

When a document is completed, you mark it as complete by clicking on the status symbol in the column Done in the view on the left. The status change will be indicated with your name and a time stamp and no further changes can be made.

You can cancel the status change by clicking on the tick again.

If you have marked as complete and changes are made to the values from other parts of the service, the status symbol will change colour from green to orange. Go through and check the updated values and approve again.

  • When you mark tax forms as complete, the Date when the form was filled in field is also filled with today's date. This only matters if you submit the tax form on paper/PDF. If you submit the tax form by API or SRU file, the date when the file is created is used.
  • When you are using Visma Skatt & Bokslut Pro as an accounting office from Visma Advisor some of the status changes will automatically update your checkpoints for the customer in Visma Advisor. Read more in How Visma Skatt & Bokslut Pro interacts with other products.
