Change of GST basis from cash to accrual

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi experts

If I started off using GST (VAT) on a cash-basis as defined in General Ledger Setup, and then need to change it to Accrual basis later, what are some considerations or steps to achieve this?

Cash-basis with Unrealised GST flag enabled

Accrual-basis with Unrealised GST flag turned off

When I tried to do this, I get the error:

Thank you

    Hi Steve,

    Thanks for the answer.  I removed the unrealised VAT Type to blank and I could disable the Unrealised VAT button.

    Peter,

    On the VAT Posting Setup, Unrealized VAT Type, if you are setting Unrealized VAT = FALSE, should be blank. I would blank them out then change the setting.
