Xero Practice Manager - GST calculation/rounding issue
The Xero XPM system calculates GST for each task being billed, but it doesn’t have a total GST check at the invoice level. As a result, some invoices with round billed amounts—such as $30,000—end up with incorrectly rounded GST, for example, $2,999.99. Xero calculates GST on each line item of invoices and other transactions, rounding to the nearest cent. The total GST is then the sum of these individual line calculations, which can sometimes lead to small discrepancies in the overall GST amount.
While Xero doesn't currently offer a total GST validation feature at the invoice level, we would appreciate the implementation of this functionality. It would help prevent incorrectly calculated GST amounts from being billed to customers.
