How to report correct breakfast VAT in Germany?

If you need to report your breakfast in two different categories, food and beverage, follow these steps to set up your products:

 

1. Create a breakfast product with the total cost. From the options of the product, select only Offer to employee. Create or delete a product
2. Create two new products: one for breakfast food and another one for breakfast beverages. Assign the relevant VAT to each of them.
3. Create a product rule for the relevant rate or rate group with three actions:

• • Cancel the combined breakfast product, (which is created with the reservation).
  • Add the breakfast food product.
  • Add the breakfast beverage product.

 

 

Note: make sure each product has the correct accounting category assigned, including the fields for rebates and canceled products.
