A small python tool to get relevant values from SRI invoices
Login into your SRI account and retrieve all the XML invoice files from the period you want to process.
You will need Python 3.8.x to run this tool
- Install virtualenv with pip ->
pip install virtualenv - Create a new virtualenv on the project folder with ->
virtualenv venv - Activate the virtual environment with
source venv/bin/activateon any nix-like OS orvenv\Scripts\activatein windows - Install the dependencies with ->
pip install -r requirements.txt
In the root folder of the project (after activating your virtual env and installing the dependencies):
- Create a new folder called
invoices - Place all the xml files you downloaded in that folder
- run
python main.py - Or run
python main.py -p your/path/to/invoicesto provide a custom path to your invoice folder
The results are organized in two parts: a breakdown of all your invoices and a summary with the relevant values
Some invoices contain two parts, which in the summary is shown as a two separate invoices, a taxable and a non-taxable amount, the interesting part is the taxable amount, which is the one that has a 12% added value tax.
In the summary you can find the total tax value, and the total value that has taxes, ussually you only need the total_with_taxes value, to add that in your tax declaration.
All other values are there for your information and so you can check the calculation is correct.
I hope you find this useful and helps you deduct taxes faster.
