Add a withholdee

This part of the guide explains how to add a withholder. Make sure the TIN, the tax account and the tax period are associated with the tax type corresponding to the withholdings you want to transfer. In this example, it corresponds to the PAYE withholdings.

SIGTAS supports 5 types of withholdings, those related to employee contributions (PAYE), custom imports, third parties, treasury and value added tax (VAT). The user must associate the corresponding tax type with the withholdings listed above, to interact on this page.
