    Hi,

    You can setup the reverse charge tax by making use of the use-tax feature in the tax group form. An example how such a setup Can be made Can be found in the Microsoft contoso demo companies. Take for example a look at the sales tax setup in the Demf company. Best regards,

    Ludwig

    so you have to do it manually , when you select a charge code , you have to a tax code! so you can do it with Exo code.

    if your charge is already done , i suggest to reverse it by general journal by choosing the same tax code...

    See the attached Microsoft article explaining the set up of VAT reverse charge.

    The article is written for the U.K but the instructions are actually generic and can be applied to any country.

    Hi Ismail,

    The use tax functionality is commonly used in central Europe for reverse charge tax scenarios. The usage of this feature is not limited to the US.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig I was quite surprised to see the Use Tax functionality used to record reverse charge VAT. I remember seeing you making that same comment in the past - it's not an approach I have seen before, so I'm learning something new here.

    I am curious how you make it work from the broad context of reporting on VAT.

    While I understand how this can be set up to make the GL posting correct (amount is posted as both debit and credit (on the Use Tax ledger setting), this method (as opposed to the Microsoft document I quoted about) is creating just a single posting/line in the Posted VAT table, for the "positive" amount.

    when doing VAT reporting on reverse charge, one has to add the positive amount to total VAT receivable and the negative amount to the total VAT payable. how do you handle that with your approach? (since you have just "one", positive amount in the posted VAT listing)

    Hi,

    The reporting is done by specifying the following reporting codes

    Setting up those reporting codes make the amounts reported in the tax statement ok.

    Best regards,
