For every invoice SQL 'books' the relevant tax-amount to the General Ledger(s) configured. If you print the report, you know the amount due, amount of deductable tax etcetera. At any given moment or timespan, sum payable is one minus the other. You send in the report, and the Tax Authorities (powers that be) send a confirmation that they want you to pay AT LEAST the amount you yourself reported to them. (Normally they also add a clause that at any later moment they may decide they want more if your books are not acceptable etcetera)
Now, IF you enter this statement from the TAX authorities as an INVOICE, the amount payable is doubled, as well as the amount in the TAX ledger. Same goes for example if you accidentally enter a reminder as an invoice: Payable amount doubles, so does the cost account counterpart.. CONCLUSION: This is NOT a bug! It is a sort of feature that 'rewards' people when entering non-invoices as an invoice. (ghee, that was longer than I intended, the old Accounts Payable deja-vu hit me. Dieter, anybody, feel free to copy this to the VAT howto section ;-) PS: Nice turnover figures for Q3 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Markus Dahinden Sent: donderdag 26 september 2002 16:52 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SL] Tax-Report Hi I like the new tax reports, they save time. But, did I misconfigure something or is there a bug in the report? The invoice of the FedTax office is effectively 15,901.95, but in the Tax-Report, SL adds another 15,901.95 (tax) and totals the invoice to 31,803.90! To avoide problems, I added an account VAT 0 % and modified the service VAT to be taxed at VAT 0 %. I had to do this, because the service VAT did not release the formerly selected VAT %. Thanks for your help. (Sorry for sending HTML, I think it helps if you see the report...) Markus MWST (0) gezahlt durch Eink�ufe 1. Juli 2002 - 30.
