I think that I found some bugs relating to the withholding tax:
in the recurring sales invoice it is not possible to set a withholding tax
in the credit note you have “total” then then the “witholding tax” but not a “balance due” which is the difference of the twos
Thanks
Yes, it is. Check the last box.
That is because both are amounts being credited to different accounts. The Total field is credited against Accounts receivable and the withholding tax is credited against Withholding tax receivable. You would not expect the customer to take action based on the credit note, because it is not a demand for payment like a sales invoice, so the difference between these two numbers is meaningless. The net effect of the credit note shows up on the sales invoice if you go back and revisit it. Here is a simple example.
Start with a sales invoice for 1,000 and withholding tax of 10%:
Before any receipt is received, issue a credit note for half the purchase amount and its corresponding withholding tax (entry and view screens excerpts both shown below):
Now revisit the sales invoice:
Note that the full 500 refund has not been subtracted from the balance due. The credit was reduced by the amount that should originally have been withheld on it. The end result is as though the purchase was for 500 with 10% withholding, for a balance due of 450. And the Summary shows only 50 in Withholding tax receivable:
Thanks for the explanation
