I have created Tax codes as per Indian laws. I have created a capital account for the tax payable. The tax codes are linked to this account. Now I am trying to record a receipt. I select the appropriate tax code but it simply doesn’t work. Check image
Thank you for responding. It is a liabilities account only. I casually refer to accounts on the liabilities side of the balance sheet as a capital account. Sorry for the confusion. My mistake.
Good day. I need some help with showing VAT on receipts. The invoice shows the VAT amount however when I create a receipt the amount including VAT is totalled and does not show the VAT amount. Our clients insist on the VAT amount being shown on receipts. How can I achieve this? Clicking Tax exclusive on Show Tax amount column has no effect on the total figure.
You will notice that the relevant invoice will now state Paid In full. So you can send that Invoice to the customer as evidence it was paid with all the details.
If you are recording sales using a Sales Invoice, then the VAT is shown on the sales invoice. It cannot be included in the receipt of the payment from the customer. Including the VAT again would result in accounting for the VAT twice
If you are recording sales using Receipts, then you record the VAT on the Receipt
