We have a customer who is using jobs.

However they have customers with different VAT because those customers deliver to different countries.

Example:

Customer is located in Germany and they project with goods delivery in Germany so they get an invoice from our customer with zero vat.

But the same customer also deliveres to the Netherlands so they should get invoice with high VAT, in this case 21 %

Our customer needs to create more customers for the same acount with different posting groups.

Is it an idea to add the following fields to jobs:

- Gen. Bus. Posting Group

- VAT Bus. Posting Group

The same as in sales orders were you can select a different posting group for the same customer.

And here is the solution.
Since you cant change the VAT Business Posting Group in the job related invoice.
You need to create the invoice at first for the customer.
Then you can change the VAT Business Posting Group in that invoice.

Then you can use the Function Get Project Planning Lines.

Now you have an invoice with a different VAT Bus Posting Group than the job.

I agree but for a different requirement.

When it comes to projects/jobs in the context of EU you may need to decide weather this particular project needs to be handled in a different VAT context.
For example, when your project value consists of more service than items, it must be handled as a service in general.
That means that the items (when transferred to invoiceable planning lines) must be treated as 13B as well.

IMO this is only handable with a specific VAT Bus Posting Group that unfortunately can't be changed inside the project.

In Sales Order it can be changed.

We need this feature in jobs as well.

The workaround with different customers (for the same entity) has many downsides and shouldn't be used.

Hi, If these are different customers, I think the following new features in BC24 can meet your needs.

From invoice point of view it doesn't matter where You deliver, but where the company is located that You sell goods to.

I didn't quite understand the problem. If there are several customers, each can have a different VAT Bus. Posting group to indicate the country where he is located (either EU in whole or specific Germany)
