Hi expert,
I have setup of sales tax using negative as withholding tax & ledger posting group as follow:
once i posted AP invoice journal, system created sales tax account get from 200160 sales tax receivable (not sales tax payable).
what i am expected was getting account from sales tax payable on ledger posting group.
is there any way ?
Hello Agus,
Why don't you use the standard withholding tax functionality if you want to use this sales tax code as withholding tax?
Best regards,
Ludwig
Hello ludwig,
we cannot use WHT feature, because here WHT is recognized upon receipt an vendor invoice
Right.
Withholding tax is usually calculated and posted with the payment.
Do you plan to post such as withholding tax or something else; a kind of special tax that is applicable in your country?
Would be great if you could explain.
Many thanks and best regards,
hi ludwig,
i have transaction of AP invoice deducted Withholding tax once receipt an invoice (not payment yet), so i created sales tax code with Negative percentage & mapped to ledger posting group. Then i inputted it on invoice journal payables, once posted, system pulled account from "sales tax receivable" on ledger posting group.
What i need is, can system get "sales tax payable" on ledger posting (not sales tax receivable) group during posting ?
You cannot directly influence that.
What you can possibly use as a workaround is a new ledger posting group that you assign to this negative sales tax code and where you add the payable account into the 'sales tax receivable' section of this sales tax ledger posting group.
Would be great if you could test this and let us know whether this fixed your issue.
