IRPF management in Business Central
What it is

IRPF, made simple

Our solution integrates the calculation and management of IRPF withholdings into your Business Central, generates the official forms and stays up to date with Spanish tax regulations.

For freelancers who invoice other businesses and for landlords, IRPF withholding is mandatory on every invoice, and a mistake in the percentage or the form can lead to surcharges and requests from the Spanish Tax Agency.

Our solution automatically calculates the withholding based on the profile type (professional, landlord...) and applies it to every invoice and payment, generating a fully auditable trail within Business Central at all times.

Automatic withholding calculation

Apply the correct withholdings on invoices and payments with no manual calculations.

AEAT tax forms

Generate the official forms (111, 190…) ready to file.

Compliant with regulations

Always up to date with current Spanish tax law.

Integrated into Business Central

All within your ERP, with no external programs or duplicate entries.

How it works

From calculation to filing, without leaving Business Central

When you set up a vendor or landlord as subject to withholding, Business Central automatically applies the corresponding IRPF percentage to every invoice and payment, with no need to calculate it by hand.

All the information is recorded by vendor and period, ready to generate the official forms (111 for withholdings to professionals, 190 as the annual summary) directly from the ERP.

We configure the withholding types according to your activity, check that the generated forms match your accounting, and keep the solution up to date with regulatory changes.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Who does IRPF withholding apply to?

Mainly to self-employed professionals invoicing businesses (where withholding is legally required on the invoice) and to landlords renting out premises or property for business use, who are also subject to withholding on the rental amount. Business Central automatically applies the corresponding percentage based on the profile type you configure for each supplier or landlord: it's not the same percentage in every case, and applying the wrong one can cause problems with the tax authorities later on. Once configured once per supplier, there's no need to remember or manually calculate the correct percentage on every invoice recorded, reducing the margin for human error in a purely regulatory matter where mistakes can have tax consequences.

Which forms does the solution generate?

It generates form 111 (the quarterly withholding and advance payment return) and form 190 (the annual informative summary of those same withholdings), with the figures calculated directly from the invoices and payments already recorded in Business Central, so they automatically match your accounting with no manual reconciliation needed. This removes one of the usual friction points of quarterly closing: manually gathering all withholdings applied during the period, cross-checking them against the accounts and building the form separately, with the risk of some figure not matching due to an oversight or a badly recorded invoice. With the information already calculated inside the ERP, filing the forms with the tax authorities becomes a quick task instead of something that takes hours every quarter.

Can I have different withholding types at the same time?

Yes, with no problem at all. Each supplier or landlord is configured independently with their own withholding percentage and type based on their specific situation (a self-employed professional may have a different percentage than a landlord, and the landlord's rate can in turn vary by property type or activity), and Business Central automatically applies the right one on each invoice without you having to keep track of who is who when recording the document. This is especially useful for companies working with a wide variety of supplier profiles: there's no need to remember from memory which percentage to apply to each one, the system already knows because it was defined the first time that record was set up.

What happens if tax regulations change?

We update the solution's configuration to adapt it to new withholding percentages or legal requirements introduced by tax regulations, with nothing needed on your part and no need to worry about whether your setup has fallen out of date. Personal income tax rules change fairly often — new rates, changes to official forms, adjustments to thresholds — and an ERP that's poorly maintained in this respect can end up generating forms with incorrect figures without anyone noticing until the tax authorities ask a question. By proactively keeping the solution up to date, your Business Central keeps calculating withholdings correctly even as the law changes, with no surprises on the next quarterly filing.

Does it work for freelancers and for companies?

Yes. Whether you're a company withholding tax from self-employed suppliers or landlords, or you're a professional who has tax withheld by other companies on their invoices, the solution covers both flows within Business Central. In the first case, you manage the withholdings you apply and generate the corresponding forms as the payer; in the second, you record the withholdings your clients have applied so your accounting correctly reflects the net amount collected versus the gross amount invoiced, something essential for reliable cash flow control and for your income or corporate tax return at year end.
