Differences exist for the amounts in the excel and xml.

For Italy, it is not mandatory as per the law that tax amount in the tax return screen and amounts in the file should match. While generating the return we are considering reverse charge base and tax amounts but at the time of file generation it is not expected that we need to consider the tax base amounts that is the reason there is a difference of amounts in both file and return.

If you need to verify the data in the VAT Return, you can download the data from the Tab Tax Return and submit it to the tax authority.
