Before using the Brazil Reports SuiteApp, be aware of the current limitations and best practice recommendations.

Best Practices of the Brazil Reports SuiteApp

When using the Brazil Certification Tax Authorities SuiteApp, be guided by the following recommendations:

When setting the subsidiary logo for forms, upload an image with these maximum dimensions:
- Height – 72 pixels
- Width – 259 pixels
NetSuite includes the subsidiary logo in the PDF version of accounting reports, auxiliary reports, financial statements, fiscal books, and tax assessments.

For more information, see Setting Up Subsidiaries for Brazil.
When setting up your accounts for Brazil through a CSV import, check the Run Server SuiteScript and Trigger Workflows box.

This option appears on step 2 of the Import Assistant, under Advanced Options. It enables the system to run validations on the Parent Account in the Brazil Chart of Accounts field.

For more information, see Set Advanced CSV Import Options.

When using the Brazil Reports SuiteApp, keep in mind the following limitations:

When assessing taxes and generating reports, Brazil Reports doesn't consider taxes on transactions with SuiteTax's Tax Details Override box checked. The SuiteApp doesn't support this SuiteTax feature.

However, Brazil Reports does support the tax base and tax rate override feature from the SuiteTax Latam Engine SuiteApp. For more information, see Overriding Tax Bases and Tax Rates for the SuiteTax Latam Engine.
Due to a system limitation, you can only download XLS files of the following reports for Brazil if they're 10 MB or smaller.
- Auxiliary reports
  - Simples Nacional assessment
  - Withheld taxes on services
- Tax assessments
  - ICMS assessment
  - IPI assessment
  - ISS assessment
  - PIS and COFINS assessment
If the file is bigger, download the PDF version instead.
