2023.10.2.1

Mar 21, 2023

  1. APMPI-790 - We have added new EDAG code 003AExtraAGA to handle Salary above NOK 750 000.

To make new code appear in your system, please open A-Melding plugin first. Then, as usually, it will be available to be linked to the entries fields in the Entry Codes Setup → EDAG.

 

The rate for this code can be changed in the A-Melding plugin setup. By default it will be set to 5%.

 

2. APMPI-827 - Fixed problem, when ‘Tilbakemelding’ details were fetched from wrong period.

 

3. APMPI-829 - Adjusted Validation report in A-Melding, so new inntektskombinasjoner for 2023 year will not appear there.

 

4. APMPI-841 - Fixed problem with Historical A-Melding reports, when there were two different entry code tables in the system and one of them was without EDAG codes definition in selected period.

From now in such case settings will be taken from the period before selected one.

2023.20.2.1

Oct 5, 2023

  1. APMPI-777 - Moved the global options of EDAG to A-melding plugin.

 

  1. APMPI-1042 - Implemented the handling of extra AGA in the A-melding correction.

     

  2. APMPI-945 - Fixed the wrong display of F.Trekk on the summary section

2023.30.1.1

Dec 5, 2023

APMPI-1019 - In the A-Melding plugin, enhanced the validation check for the A-melding correction to allow the total tax deduction (Forskuddstrekk) less than zero.

The correction A-melding is used to correct the data on a historical period. In the case a person is reported too much tax deduction, it is possible to report a negative amount for adjustment.

 

APMPI-1088 - The EDAG correction entries for Forskuddstrek appeared in the Validation report. The issue has been fixed.

 

APMPI-1096 - In the A-melding plugin, the following implementations have been made:

  • The PensjonEllerTrygde and NaeringsInntekt combinations are added to PWEDAGCombinationDEF.

  • The PensjonEllerTrygde and NaeringsInntekt combinations are added to EDAG Settings.

  • The F513 validation works when Intekttype=Forkudstrekk + Kode Beskrivelse=Svalbard and gives error Ugyldig kombinasjon av inntekt og forskuddstrekkbeskrivelse på Svalbard.

  • The F514 validation works when Intekttype=Forkudstrekk + Kode Beskrivelse=JanMayenOgBilandene and gives error Ugyldig kombinasjon av inntekt og forskuddstrekkbeskrivelse på Jan Mayen og bilandene.

2023.30.2.1

Dec 20, 2023

APMPI-1115 - Fixed handling of Extra AGA in A-melding with option "Use Tax zone from employer" and "Use Tax zone from entries"

2024.10.1.1

Apr 12, 2024

APMPI-1101 - AGA grunnlag for Jan Mayen has been detached from the normal AGA gunnlag. It is now reported now into the AGA grunnlag for Svalbard in the A-melding format.

 

APMPI-1177 - The issue has been fixed. It is possible to correct extra AGA not only when the reported amount needs to be increased, but also when deducted for both A-Melding (Normal) and A-Melding (Correction).

Sending of A-melding

You have five reporting options available

  • A-melding (Normal) - Used for reporting both Payroll and “Arbeidsforhold” information for current or historical payroll periods.

  • A-melding (Arbeidsforhold Only) - Used to send in information on “Arbeidsforhold”, but no payroll data.

  • A-melding (Payroll Only) - Used to send in payroll information, excluding “Arbeidsforhold”

  • A-melding (Correction) - Used for sending in correction/individual entry codes only

Report window

A-melding (Normal), A-melding (Payroll Only), A-melding (Correction)

A-melding (Normal), A-melding (Payroll Only), and A-melding (Correction) have the same selections available. Click on any of the three reports to load. This will not send any data to Altinn but enable you to review the data and select Payroll and A-melding period.

  • When loading, the report will fetch data from the open payroll period. You can change this once you are inside the reporting window.

There is a difference between Adonis Payroll Period and the A-melding period. E.g. companies running bi-weekly payroll periods in Adonis will have to send two different Adonis Payroll Periods into the same A-melding month..

Click “Refresh” after changing the payroll period to load new data.

Select the payroll period in Adonis you want the report to fetch data from:

Select which A-melding period you want to send in the payroll data to:

  • The report will display all persons and each individual payroll record they have for the select payroll period and how it will be reported in the A-melding

  • You will get a summary of all the Employer's Fee basis, Pension, Refund of Employer’s fee, actual Employer’s fee, and Tax amount that will be reported.

 

  • You have four options available

    • Send - Click to send in the data to the selected A-melding period for the chosen Payroll Period

    • Refresh - Make sure to select Refresh if you change Payroll Period to load new data

    • Validation - You can use this to do preliminary data validation. We are not able to have all A-melding rules validated as they can change on short notice, however, it will display major data errors in the system.

    • Close - Chose to close the reporting window

A-melding (Arbeidsforhold Only)

The report will list all active Arbeidsforhold.

Correspondence

The Correspondence window is used to read and print “Tilbakemelding” from Altinn. You will be able to get an overview of the total reported Employer’s fee and Tax, as well as review any error details.

 

  • The feedback from Altinn can have three statuses:

    • Avvisning - the error is so grave that the whole A-melding is rejected. Corrections will have to be made before a new A-melding must be sent in.

      You do not need to reset the sent A-melding, just send in a new one after the correction is done.

    • Øyeblikkelig - A-melding has an exception/error that must be corrected before the deadline

      You will have to reset the A-melding sent as it is received and processed by Altinn. If you do not reset, the new A-melding will come on top of the other and the amounts will be double.

    • Retningslinje - A-melding might have an error.

      Normally, this comes if you have persons for whom the passport is used as the identification instead of the personal id number. This error can in these cases be ignored, but make sure you check that this is the case.

 

A-melding (History)

This is an audit window where you can see all “A-melding” that has been sent or reset for the selected period.

  • Black color - This is the active A-melding. Normally there should only be one, as if not it can be an indication that the A-melding has been sent two times and the amounts will be double.

    This can easily be checked by ordering report A06 from inside Altinn for reconciliation.

  • Red color - The A-melding has been reset and canceled.

  • Blue color - The response from Altinn when an A-melding has been reset. You can see in the column “Replacemeldingid” the actual A-melding that has been reset.
