Select a VAT code in financial entries
When entering the purchase or sales invoice in Financial, you can select a VAT code. Typically, the VAT code is already recorded as a preference for the ledger account.
In the entry line, you can only select the VAT codes that are relevant for the entry. The transaction type (domestic/within the EU/outside the EU) and the Tax field of the VAT duty (for the creditor or debtor) determine which VAT codes you can select.
VAT code in financial entries:
- Go to: Financial / Enter / Journal.
- From here, follow the procedure for Enter a purchase invoice or Enter a sales invoice.
All the possible VAT codes based on the default VAT duties supplied are listed below:
