# Tax Return Centre Fields

The Tax Centre in XoroERP offers a robust set of detail fields and options that empower users to effectively manage tax return processes. Users can delve into comprehensive tax return information, including detailed descriptions of tax lines/boxes, File Date, Amount Paid, Amount Due, Amount Due Period, and Return Status. This level of detail provides a clear understanding of tax return specifics, ensuring accuracy and compliance with tax regulations. Additionally, the centre enables users to make necessary adjustments and modifications to tax return entries before filing, streamlining the process and enhancing data accuracy.

**Add Payments**: This functionality directs users to the [Sale Tax Payment](/xoroerp-1/accounting/sales-tax/tax-payment/sale-tax-payment.md) module within the XoroERP system, providing them with a seamless interface to add payments to the selected record effortlessly. Furthermore, users have the capability to make edits to the existing details associated with the selected Tax Return directly from this module.

**Record Refund**: Occasionally, there may be situations where your business is entitled to receive funds from the government, such as when you overpaid taxes or qualified for a tax refund. In such cases, XoroERP provides a convenient feature known as Record Refund, allowing you to process and record these refunds seamlessly.

To initiate a refund, start by navigating to the Tax Return Centre within XoroERP. Here, you'll find a comprehensive overview of your tax returns, including details like the Total Amount Due, which may sometimes show a negative value, indicating that the government owes you funds. Right-click on the specific Tax File for which you want to record the refund, and select the "Record Refund" option.

Upon selecting "Record Refund," a popup window will appear, prompting you to enter essential details such as the Time of the refund, the refund Amount, the Account to which the refund will be credited, and any other necessary information.&#x20;

Once you've filled in all the required fields, simply hit the "Record Refund" button to finalize the process.

Recording the refund will automatically adjust the Total Amount Due to zero, indicating that the funds have been received and reconciled. Additionally, the status of the Tax File will be updated to "Paid," ensuring that your records accurately reflect the completion of the refund process.

**View Filing Summary**: Upon selecting this option, users are directed to the Tax File Summary displayed in a popup window, facilitating a comprehensive view of essential financial details such as the Amount, Exception Amount, Line Amount, and Balance associated with the selected record.

**View Exceptions**: Allows users to view the Tax File Exceptions related to the selected record.

**Void**: This allows users to void the selected record and return the filed tax return. This will void the filed Tax Return only if there is no Refund or Payment recorded for it. Users will have to delete the payment/refund in order to void the tax file.&#x20;

To delete or void a payment/refund, follow the steps below:

**Step 1:** Navigate to **Menu → Accounting → Sales Tax → Tax Return Centre** and right-click on the tax return record for which you want to void the payment/refund.
