Manage Tax, Manual Customer Invoice Line

Explanation

Use this activity to handle taxes in connection to manual customer invoice lines. You can enter tax information directly on the manual customer invoice line or work with multiple taxes in the tax lines dialog. If you enter a tax calculation structure on the invoice line, you can work with multiple taxes with different tax base amounts. Tax lines can only be entered/modified as long as the invoice is in status Preliminary. Regardless status, it is not possible to remove or enter new tax lines if tax calculation structure is entered on the invoice line. Default tax information can be retrieved by using the Set Default option.

The calculated gross, net and tax amounts are displayed in the fields at the bottom of the window.

If the Transaction Level check box is selected in the Company/Tax Control/General tab under Tax Code Validations for Customer Tax, it is mandatory to enter a tax code on the invoice line.

Prerequisites

• A Manual Customer Invoice with at least one invoice line must exist. The tax codes to be applied must have been defined for the company used. This is done in the Tax Codes window.

• Tax setup to fetch and calculate single tax or multiple taxes with the common tax base amount:
  • To receive default tax values from Customer/Invoice/General tab there must be a default tax code specified in the Tax Code field.
  • To receive default tax values from Customer/Address/Delivery Tax Information/Supply Country/Taxes tab one or more tax codes must be connected to the customer’s delivery address.

• Tax setup to fetch and calculate multiple taxes with different tax base amounts by using tax calculation structure functionality:
  • The tax calculation structure to be applied must have been defined for the company used. This is done in the Tax Calculation Structure window.
  • To receive default tax values from the taxable customer address, the tax liability must be of tax liability type Taxable and the tax calculation structure must be connected to the customer's delivery address in the Customer/Address/Delivery Tax Information/Supply Country/Taxes tab.

System Effects

• Based on the tax specification for each invoice line, the tax amount per tax line is calculated. The summarized tax amount is calculated and displayed for each invoice line in the bottom of the dialog. The Tax Lines dialog can be reached in all scenarios with a detailed tax specification for each invoice line.
• If a single tax code is used, the Multiple Tax Lines check box is not selected and single tax code is displayed in the Tax Code column on the invoice line. If multiple taxes are used, the Multiple Tax Lines check box is selected on the invoice line. If multiple taxes with different tax bases are used, the tax calculation structure is displayed in the Tax Calculation Structure column on the invoice line.
• If multiple taxes with different tax bases are calculated, the tax base for each tax line is derived from the tax calculation structure definition and it is displayed in the Tax Base Amount column.
