configured VAT Business Posting group in Customer and VAT Product Posting Group in Resource that I'm using in sales invoice also for those combination maintained VAT Posting Setup with required VAT% & respective GL Account, made Tax liable true for customer also verified price include VAT check box is false in document

Please suggest... Thank you in Advance

    Hi, In addition to checking the combination of posting groups, is VAT% not set in VAT Posting Setup? If this is set to 0, VAT Ledger entries will not be generated.
    Below is a screenshot in BC, it should be the same in NAV.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    Thank you YUN ZHU for your review, but I mapped required VAT% as 10% for combination of desired VAT Business and VAT Product Posting Groups in VAT Posting Setup, thing here is VAT Amount calculating as per setup correctly, but while posting that document system only creating GL entries for sales invoice amount, it was not considering VAT amount in sales document. please find attachments for your review, for your information I'm using standard out of the box NAVISION 2016 CU 67 no customizations or object modifications made, Thank you!

    This is a bit strange, was the order created first? Then add the VAT Posting Group on Resource and Customer. I tested it on NAV2016 and did not encounter this problem.
    It is recommended that you check the specific value in this line in Page Inspection (Ctrl+Alt+F1).
    For example,

    Hi, it is recommended that you ask the developer to debug it. Maybe India localization or customization caused this problem.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    Is location code mandatory for VAT entries, was looking on the screen shot shared, one is missing location code on lines.
