Prepmt. VAT Calc. Type Field, Purchase Line Table

Specifies which VAT calculation type will be used when a prepayment invoice for this purchase line is posted.

The field is filled automatically by using the VAT Bus. Posting Group and VAT Prod. Posting Group fields of the prepayment G/L account that is associated with this purchase line.

Note

To identify the prepayment G/L account and to verify which VAT settings are used, you must review the combination of the General Bus. Posting Group field and the General Prod. Posting Group field in the General Posting Setup window. Make sure that the VAT posting groups of the G/L account match the VAT posting groups of this purchase line.

The VAT calculation type determines how the VAT will be calculated when the prepayment invoice is posted. There are three different VAT types and one type for use with sales tax:

Normal VAT

This option is used to calculate VAT for the amount on this line and to create a VAT ledger entry including the amount.

Reverse Charge VAT

This option is used when the line involves a sale to another EU country/region, where the seller does not collect VAT because the purchaser must compute and settle accounts with the tax authorities.

Full VAT

This option cannot be used for prepayment.

Sales Tax

This option is used only if the program is set up to handle US sales tax. The option directs the program to retrieve information from specific sales tax tables and then calculate sales tax instead of VAT.
