UK VAT returns now prompt users when their company belongs to a tax unit and can automatically switch the report to that tax unit. When filing to HMRC, the system uses the tax unit's VAT number where applicable, reducing filing errors for grouped companies.
Original PR description
BEFORE: - Before this commit, when the current company is a member of the tax unit, there is no blocking level error for the user to select the tax unit. - And the vat used while creating a connection to the HMRC or while sending a tax report to the HMRC is of the current company. AFTER: - After this commit, there is one blocking level error, which tells the user that the current company is part of a tax unit, and on confirmation, the tax unit will automatically be selected for the current report. - And if the return contains the data of a tax unit, then the vat set on the tax unit will be considered while establishing the connection and sending the tax report to HMRC.

This update improves the French reporting tools used for fiscal declarations. It helps make local compliance reporting more reliable and easier to maintain for businesses operating in France.
The product list in Point of Sale now stays in the full layout on medium-sized tablets instead of switching to the compact view too early. This gives staff more space to browse products and improves usability on devices in landscape or medium-width screens, including a fix for iPhone/iPad orientation changes.
Original PR description
Previously, the product list was rendered in "small display" mode for all screen sizes below the medium breakpoint (< 992px). However, some small tablets are able to fully display the product list at the medium breakpoint (≥ 768px and ≤ 991px). After this fix, "small display" mode is only applied when the screen width is below 768px. This commit also includes a fix for iOS devices where the screen breakpoint was not correctly recomputed on orientation change.
