Can we also have non-inventory items in the localizations as well? I use them to inactivate passthrough codes so they can only be used through non-inventory tax adjustment items but not manually.

55

@Ealfardan No. This would be very non-standard. Manager already supports pass-through tax codes for the purpose of tax adjustments.

56

I donā€™t think you got me. Process goes like this:

  1. I create the passthrough tax code (X)
  2. I apply the passthrough code (X) to a non-inventory item (Z)
  3. I inactivate the passthrough code (X)

Now the users will not be able to select tax code (X) manually as it will not appear in the tax code drop-down. However, if they select non-inventory item (Z), tax code (X) will magically appear with no option to change it.

This could help avoid data entry disasters:

  • Applying a passthrough code where it doesnā€™t apply
  • Applying other tax codes for adjustments

Thatā€™s the way Iā€™m using passthrough codes and thatā€™s the way everybody else should too.

57

I know what you mean. I know pass-through tax codes are kind of weird because they do not actually touch the account you select under Account column. I do not have a solution for that yet but non-inventory item workaround is not the way.

58

Ok. Please donā€™t disable it then, this is my life saver. :sweat_smile:

59

Every other comparable software uses that as well. Iā€™ve seen this setup in odoo, dynamics and oracle. Thereā€™s absolutely nothing wrong with it, it works just as intended. In fact, it is the standard and more conventional way and certainly not:

In fact, just so other accounts donā€™t get touched, the non-inventory item (Z) is set to the Taxes Payable account as well. Thatā€™s the way I currently do it.
