Business Central (India) – Purchase Orders still showing VAT instead of GST even after GST setup

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 24
Hello,
 
We are using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (India localization) and have installed/configured Indian GST in our environment.
However, we are facing an issue where VAT is still showing on Purchase Orders, and the system continues to behave as if VAT is the applicable tax.
 
Issue Summary
  • On Purchase Orders, the tax section/amount is showing VAT instead of GST (CGST/SGST/IGST)
  • When we print / generate the Purchase Order PDF and Purchase Invoice PDF, the document layout also displays VAT, whereas the expected output is GST
 
Expected Result
  • Purchase Orders should calculate and display GST (CGST/SGST/IGST)
  • Purchase Order / Purchase Invoice PDFs should show GST and not VAT
 
What we have already done?
  • Installed/Enabled Indian GST extension
  • Completed GST setup (GSTIN, State, etc.)
  • Vendor and company are configured for India GST (as per standard setup steps)
 
Request for Help:
  • Has anyone faced this scenario where VAT continues to appear even after GST setup?
  • What configuration controls whether GST is applied instead of VAT on Purchase Orders and printed documents?
 
Any guidance on the specific setup areas to verify (Company Information / Location / Vendor / Posting Setup / Report Layout) would be appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance!
