Pillar Two
Longview supports the calculation of ETR and top-up tax in support of the OECD’s BEPS Pillar Two model rules. Pillar Two apps, reports and administration can be found within the Global Transparency module in the Longview Client.
Overview of the Pillar Two process
The Pillar Two Model Rules are supported by several inputs, reports, and calculations. The basic flow of the process is:
- Source trial balance data is imported.
- Your system may have additional source data imports.
- If you are using Tax Provision,
- Automations that use source trial balance will execute.
- Tax inputs will trigger additional tax calculations.
- GloBE Temporary Differences will populate with provision balances for deferred tax accounts.
- GloBE Income will be populated using any configured automation.
- GloBE Covered Taxes will be populated using any configured automation.
- GloBE Temporary Differences adjustments will be populated using any configured automation.
If your reporting currency is not EUR, adjust thresholds using Pillar Two Thresholds.
- Optionally use GloBE Revenue to enter the GloBE Revenue for each constituent entity.
- This can be used as part of the de minimis test for a jurisdiction.
- Use GloBE Income to enter any manual inputs to GloBE Income for each constituent entity.
- Use GloBE Temporary Differences to enter any manual adjustments to temporary differences for Pillar Two.
-
Use Adjusted Covered Taxes to enter any manual inputs to Covered Taxes and the Total Deferred Tax Adjustment for each constituent entity.
- The Total Deferred Tax Adjustment is automatically transferred to the Total Deferred Tax Adjustment Amount within Covered Taxes.
- The ETR and Top-up Tax Percentage will be calculated automatically by an event.
- The results of these calculations are stored by jurisdiction in the related jurisdiction calculation entity.
- Use Substance-Based Income Exclusion to enter gross values to support the calculation of the substance-based income exclusion.
- The substance-based income exclusion will be calculated and applied to the top-up tax calculation.
- If QDMTT is applicable to the jurisdiction:
- Adjust Income for any differences in QDMTT rules for the jurisdiction.
- Adjust Covered Taxes for any differences in QDMTT rules for the jurisdiction.
- The ETR and Top-up Tax Percentage will be calculated automatically by an event.
- The results of these calculations are stored by jurisdiction in the related jurisdiction calculation entity.
- Adjust Substance-Based Income Exclusion for any differences in QDMTT rules for the jurisdiction.
- The substance-based income exclusion will be calculated and applied to the top-up tax calculation.
- Use Top-up Tax to adjust the top-up tax payable under QDMTT.
The adjusted top-up tax is automatically applied as a deduction in GloBE top-up tax.
- Use Top-up Tax to make any allowed adjustments to the Top-up tax for the jurisdiction.
- Jurisdictional top-up tax is allocated to constituent entities with GloBE Income automatically.
- Use Allocated Top-up Tax to review the Top-up tax allocated to constituent entities.
-
Use Income Inclusion Rule to review the Top-up tax attributed to owners.
Use Excess Negative Tax Expense to review excess negative tax expense related to article 4.1.5 .
Use Under-taxed payments rule to manage UTPR factors and results.
Use Additional Top-up tax to manage additional top-up tax generated from adjustments to prior fiscal years .
-
If you are using Longview to capture return specific data, you may also want to:
- Use GloBE Allocation of Income and Taxes to enter details of allocation of income and taxes between permanent establishments and flow through entities.
- Use GloBE SBIE Allocations to enter details of allocation of payroll and assets to permanent establishments and owners of flow through entities.
- Enter Transition Year Details for deferred tax balances and disposals.
Transitional Safe Harbours
A starter kit is provided with Longview Pillar Two to deploy hierarchies, events, and apps to support transitional safe harbours.
The starter kit contains the following items:
- A deployment app.
- An adjustment app to enter adjustments to transitional safe harbour values at a jurisdictional level.
- A report app to review transitional safe harbours across jurisdictions.
- An event to transfer source values into the transitional safe harbour accounts.
Before deploying the starter kit, modifications may be required depending on the functionality included in your system.
For further information, see "Deploying the transitional safe harbour starter kit".
Minimum Rate
The minimum rate is set at 15%, but an input app has been provided to support potential future rate changes. You can set the minimum rate using:
- P2501 – Minimum Tax Rate input app found in Global Transparency > Data Collection > Pillar Two > Rates.
The minimum rate is set on install and copied forward during rollover.
QDMTT Minimum Rate
The minimum rate is set at 15%, but an input app has been provided to support potential future rate changes. You can set the minimum rate using:
- QD501 – Minimum Tax Rate input app found in Global Transparency > Data Collection > QDMTT > Jurisdictions
The minimum rate is copied forward during rollover.
Note: QDMTT Minimum Rate input will not be available for any jurisdiction that does not have QDMTT selected in Applicable Rules within Manage Jurisdiction Elections.
Pillar Two Thresholds
The GloBE Pillar Two model rules define specific thresholds for amounts denoted in EUR. In cases where these thresholds change in the future or you reporting currency is not EUR, you can adjust them using the Pillar Two Thresholds input app. There are several thresholds presented, but the ones used within the system are:
Average GloBE Revenue (in transitional safe harbours).
The Exchange rate for non-EUR reporting currency (in the GIR extract to csv).
To adjust Pillar Two Thresholds:
1. In Longview Client, select the Global Transparency module.
2. Select the Data Collection category in the navigation pane.
3. Expand Pillar Two.
4. Expand Rates and click P2503 – Pillar Two Thresholds. The app appears in the workspace.
5. Adjust the threshold in EUR as required.
6. If your reporting currency is not EUR, enter the exchange rate to use. The threshold in reporting currency is automatically calculated.
7. Click Submit to save your changes.

Excess Negative Tax Expense
Excess negative tax expense is generated when the effective negative tax expense on a loss exceeds the global minimum rate. Under Article 4.1.5 this amount either generates additional top-up tax in the current year or is carried forward to a future year to be taken as a reduction to covered taxes.
The components of excess negative tax expense include:
Expected Adjusted Covered Taxes Amount
The Article 4.1.5 jurisdictional election to apply the excess negative tax expense carry-forward.
-
The calculation of:
Excess negative tax expense when the Article 4.1.5 election is not taken.

Under-taxed payments rule
After top-up tax has been attributed to owners, any remaining top-up tax may be subject to the under-taxed payments rule (UTPR). This rule determines the amount of top-up tax that was not attributed to an owner and distributes it to jurisdictions that have implemented the under-taxed payments rule using an allocation factor based on assets and number of employees.
