Symptoms

Currently Latin Tax does not allow for an option to round at the Tax Header level.
Rounding at the Line Level is causing discrepancies.

For Example:

Line amount    tax line rounded      tax line no rounded
1     1256                      70.34                        70.336
2       599.6                   33.58                        33.5776

If it is rounded at the Header Level (nearest), it should be:
70.336 + 33.5776 = 103.9136 --->>> 103.91

BUT Tax is 103.92

Latin Tax does not use Header Level rounding.
This is a Government requirement within Argentina.
