Posted on by Community Member

Hello, 

We are looking to use this fields functionality but when the field was added to our field is was greyed out. Can't find any security reason for it and normal prepayments function just fine. Any idea's on how to make this field editable?

Env Details:

App Version: 17.2.19367.19525

Platform Version: 17.2

Region: US East

    Brendand,

    I checked with my programmer and the field is being decommissioned in the April 2021 release. With that said, the Sales Tax topic will not be addressed in Prepayments for the US version. The only solution I can think of, given the upcoming change, is to add the G/L row, for the Sales Tax. This will allow the Prepayment Invoice to reflect Sales Tax. However, to finalize, you will need to reverse this so the standard Sales Tax process balances when you Post - Invoice the SO. I know this sounds clunky, but this is the easiest solution without a customization.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Can you update this with your workaround as Annie was looking for it.

    Hi Annie,

    I apologize for the delay, this thread got buried in the wrong email folder. This work around was fine for a customer of ours who only collects tax in a few states. We ended up setting up item charges with tax routings to each appropriate GL account (each state). It doesn't allow the calculation to occur automatically but it allows the pre-payment invoice to be posted with a line (non-inventory) so that the customer could process the pre-payment using PayPal with the tax included. Each item charge is by state and when you do this you have to unflag the tax liable check box on the sales order each time. Not fun by any means but it gave some resolve. Hoping Microsoft will devise a better way to handle such a simple concept for pre-payments.
