Activate prices including VAT

If you want to use sales prices and sales rates including VAT, you must first enable the Prices incl. VAT) activation. By default the prices and rates remain exclusive of VAT.

Ideally you should activate the new functionality at the end of the working day, or over the weekend. This is because during the activation process, a conversion will always occur, and during this conversion your employees cannot work in Profit. It is recommended that you first test a new activation in a test environment, before you implement it in the live environment.

To activate the functionality:

  1. Go to: General / Environment / Management / Properties.
  2. Go to the tab: Activation.
  3. Select the check box of the functionality that you want to activate.

    Profit warns you that after activating the functionality the environment needs to be converted.

  4. Click on: Yes to activate the function.
  5. Click on: OK.

    Profit warns you that no other users can be logged on.

  6. Click on Yes in the message.

Once the environment is converted you can proceed with configuring this functionality.
