VAT calculation in Journals

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 822

Hello,

how can i enter an amount in General Journal line and let NAV add VAT on it.

ex: amount input on line is 1000 USD, VAT is 10% on this amount hence it is 100 USD.

I know NAV calculate the VAT as included in amount, so if i enter 1000 USD it gets posted as 900.90 as net amount, 99.10 as VAT.

Note: calculation type used in VAT posting setup is normal VAT

is there any alternative or VAT calculation type method to let the system calculate the VAT without including it in amount, if user  input net amount on journal?

Regards,

David

    Hi David,

    I believe you are using working in GB Localization. There you have the option of Price Including VAT on Sales Document which can be utilised for your case. :2019_2D00_07_2D00_05_5F00_21_2D00_58_2D00_34.png

    Hi Gulshan,

    with regard to your answer, it will works only for Documents not for journals.

    any setup related to Journal? on template? on batch?

    You need to select Gen. Posting Type (to determine Sales or Purchase Tax), VAT Business Posting Group, and VAT Product Posting Group.

    You can set the default on the GL Account as well, so when the user make the journal it is automatically populate the journal.

    Hello,

    my question is not how to do VAT setup on items and on account as well.

    the question is how to let NAV not calculating VAT included in amount on journal:

    The answer of Gulshan is right on Documents; how to apply this on account in journals?

    anybody know? or it needs a customization?

    Regards,

    David

    Hi David,

    I believe for journal customisation would be inevitable to accommodate what you expect. Can't find any setup or provision for the same like we have in Sales Document through application.
