Chart of Accounts Mapping to Norway Standard Accounts
This content is relevant for accounts without SuiteTax only.
The option to map General Ledger accounts to the Standard Chart of Accounts has been removed, as this type of mapping is no longer accepted by the Skatteetaten. Instead, mapping to the Income statement using Grouping Code and Grouping Category is supported.
The new version 1.30 of the specifications from the Norwegian Tax Authority has rendered all Mapping Categories used for SAF-T generation in TAF obsolete.
A new custom TAF Mapping Category called "NO-SAFT: Income Statement 1.30" has been added to support Norway SAF-T version 1.30. This category includes the updated official list of Grouping Codes and Grouping Categories compliant with version 1.30. You need to remap their GL accounts within this new category to produce a compliant report.
The mapping of the Chart of Accounts must be based on the Income Statement mapping.
On the Account Files Field Mapping page use the 'NO-SAFT: Income Statement 1.30 category for the Norway SAF-T Financial report:

You must map your Chart of Accounts before using the Norway Tax Reports. Accounts that don't have a mapping will be left out during the generation and will be missing in the resulting audit file.
Non-posting and statistical account type accounts are not validated for missing account numbers as they are not exported and used in the SAF-T report. This means that you don’t need to map these accounts to successfully generate the report. For more information about these account types, see Non-Posting Account Registers and Using Statistical Accounts.
