RE: Change VAT Bus Posting Group on a sales order
Hello,
I am replying in case you can use my solution as my VAT database is down and I have never tested updating any VAT fields after a Post-Shipment took place. I did have a customer who had issues whereby VAT needed to be adjust or changed. Though I have not tested the part you already performed, the Post-Shipment, these are the steps I explained to them to adjust VAT for a sales document. NOTE: They also had Expected Cost turned off.
1. On the General Ledger Setup page specify a Max. VAT Difference Allowed between the amount calculated by BC and the manual amount you might enter.
2. On the Sales & Receivables Setup page, place a check mark in the Allow VAT Difference field
3. Go to the Sales Order that needs adjusting
4. Choose the Statistics Action
5. On the Invoicing Fast Tab, choose the value in the No. of Tax Lines field. This will open a sub-page for editing
6. Edit the VAT Amount field
Here is a NOTE on the above topic:
The total VAT amount for the invoice, grouped by VAT identifier, is displayed in the lines. You can manually adjust the amount in the VAT Amount field on the lines for each VAT identifier. When you modify the VAT Amount field, application checks to ensure that you have not changed the VAT by more than the amount you have specified as the maximum difference allowed. If the amount is outside the range of the Max. VAT Difference Allowed, a warning will be displayed stating the maximum allowed difference. You will be unable to proceed until the amount is adjusted to within the acceptable parameters. Click OK and enter another VAT Amount that is within the allowed range. If the VAT difference is equal to or lower than the maximum allowed, the VAT will be divided proportionally among the document lines that have the same VAT identifier.
If anyone has a database to validate this please reply back.
Thank you,
Steve
