Cloud accounting tools speak their own tax codes. ZIMRA fiscalisation needs explicit rates and categories. Mutero’s tax mapping layer translates Zoho Books and Xero taxes into ZIMRA-safe values — and refuses to invent a mapping when none exists. Map every active tax code before you turn on auto-fiscalisation. Review zero-rated, exempt, and export codes carefully; those are where silent 15% VAT mistakes hurt most.
Fail closed by design
If an invoice arrives with an unmapped tax, Mutero holds it instead of guessing. That is intentional. Fix the map once, then re-run the queue — far safer than a month of mis-fiscalised receipts.
