According to VMI, the new e. the service will help small businesses manage their income and expenses more easily and save time on filling out paper income and expense logs, and soon on tax calculations.
"Residents who will fill in the Income and Expenditure Journal online, in the VMI system, will no longer need to fill in a paper journal, take care of accounting documents, or worry that the "papers" will get lost over time. In addition, based on the data processed by i.APS, after evaluating the information received from other sources, the income and expenses of the resident's activities will be calculated, and these data will be uploaded to the preliminary declaration in 2020, all that remains is to submit it.
Soon, in the program, residents will be able to see and calculate the amounts of GPM, VAT and taxes administered by "Sodra": PSD and VSD contributions. Thus, it will no longer be necessary to look for a tool to calculate fees, to understand how they are calculated, to perform calculations, and it will be possible to conveniently pay them - the payment order will be created automatically, the user will only need to choose his bank", - i.APS project manager Inga Gedminienė mentions the advantages of the program.
The VMI draws the attention of the residents that accounting can be done by the virtual accountant i.APS, in the VMI system, by connecting to the VMI information system i.MAS via e. banking or with VMI tools. You can start doing this in any month of the year, you just need to add the amounts of income and expenses in the program for the months in which accounting was not done in i.APS.
