Working with VAT / VAT except PO lines

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 65

Good afternoon,

I have a requirement to split out a PO with non VAT / VAT lines - as per below:

Line 1 is VAT except

Line 2 requires VAT being applied

Is there a way to apply VAT for each individual line? I am using a G/L account for the PO lines, does this need to be changed to items instead?

Any advise would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Matt

    Hi Matt,

    Have you tried to define a VAT Prod. Posting Group for the G/L Account in line 2 to be one that VAT is calculated? e.g. in my example below I have Zero VAT for line 1 and Standard VAT (21%) for line 2. You can see only the 21 of 100 was calculated.

    If in some cases VAT needs to be calculated for the Zero G/L Account, you can can it for that transaction and BC will calculate the VAT.

    Hope that helps :) Let us know how you get on.

    Regards,

    Hi Martin,

    Thanks for the reply. For some reason I do not seem to have the option on the PO line to define a VAT prod posting group. Is there an option in BC to show this field on the PO line?

    Hi Matt,

    I think the column is not displayed by default, you will need to add the column via the personalising of the page. Few screenshots below, but I am sure you have done some personalising before.

    P.S. my example has a Item line but it does not matter in this example

    I hope that helps.

    Martin
