How it works
A step-by-step look at the experience.
EÜR (Einnahmenüberschussrechnung): the standard German income-surplus calculation for small businesses and freelancers. Xentra generates the EÜR with all income and expense categories pre-filled.
VAT reporting: separate tracking of 7% (accommodation) and 19% (services) VAT, input VAT from expenses, and net VAT payable. Exportable for quarterly VAT returns.
DATEV export: financial data formatted for DATEV accounting software, the standard used by most German tax advisors. Includes booking numbers (SKR03/SKR04) and correct account assignments.
Anlageverzeichnis: register of all depreciable assets with purchase date, value, depreciation method, useful life, annual depreciation, and current book value.
Depreciation schedules: linear and declining balance methods. Automatic calculation based on asset category and German tax rules (AfA tables).
All exports can be filtered by property, date range, and owner for precise reporting.
