Description

UseShippingMethodWhenSelectingDefaultTaxSchedule

This option determines whether or not you want to use the shipping method when selecting the default tax schedule on a transaction. Microsoft Dynamics GP calculates taxes at the point of exchange, using the shipping method assigned to a transaction to determine the point of exchange. The shipping method will determine which tax schedule appears as a default schedule for the transaction. If you decided not to use the shipping method to determine the default tax schedule, the tax schedule assigned to the vendor's purchase address or the customer's ship to address will be the default tax schedule.

CalculateTermsDiscountBeforeTaxes

Will apply taxes to only the discounted amount, regardless of when the payment is actually made.

EnableIntrastatTracking

This option will allow the user to enable entering Intrastat information that is required for members of the European Union. The Intrastat Trade Report is used to report this information.

SeparatePaymentDistributions

This option allows the user to separate document and payment distributions entered on the same transaction as if the document and payment were entered as separate transactions. You will be able to enter multiple distributions with the same distribution type and account.

MergeTradeDiscountAndMarkdownDistributionsInSales

This option will merge the trade discount and markdown distributions with the sales distributions.

MergeTradeDiscountDistributionsInPurchasing

This option will merge the trade discount distributions with the purchase distributions.

CalculateTaxRebates

This option will allow correcting tax amounts for a transaction with a terms discount.

EnablePostingNumbersInGeneralLedger

This option will assign each transaction a unique sequence number during posting, in addition to the journal entry number. Use this option if you want solid numbering of transactions, without gaps. Solid numbering is a legal requirement in some countries, for auditing purposes.

AllowNegativeDebitsAndCreditsInGeneralLedger

This option will allow distributions as negative amounts to reverse or correct transactions. In some countries financial statements are used not only to keep account balances, but the totals for each account's debit and credit. By marking this option, the totals for each account's debit and credit won't be overstated. When voiding transactions in Receivables Management and Payables Management, negative debit and credit distributions are posted to General Ledger. This option is available only for the following countries: Czech Republic, Poland, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Singapore/Hong Kong SAR, South Africa, UAE/Saudi Arabia, Colombia, and Portugal.

EnableGstForAustraliaAndNewZealand

This option will be marked by default if you chose Australia as your country when installing Microsoft Dynamics GP.

EnableTaxDate

This option will allows you to specify a tax date for documents.

EnableShippingDocumentInSalesOrderProcessing

This option supports shipping documents in the Sales Order Processing module.

EnableReversingChargeTaxes

The option will allow reverse charge tax detail IDs. You'll be able to assign reverse charge tax details to transactions in Receivings Management, Payables Management, Purchase Order Processing, Sales Order Processing and Invoicing. Reverse charge tax information also will be printed on tax reports.

CalculateTaxesInGeneralLedger

This option will calculate taxes in General Ledger. For example, a taxable reimbursement to an employee could be entered in General Ledger, rather than in Payables Management.

AllowSummaryLevelTaxEdits

This option will allow edits to tax information in the tax summary windows.

RequireTaxDetailTotalsToMatchThePretaxAmount

This option will require the pre-tax amount to be fully distributed among the tax details of the transaction. When tax details are required to match the pre-tax amount, you'll have to assign tax schedules so taxes are calculated or enter a tax detail during transaction entry so the goods value matches pre-tax amount. When this option is marked, you are required to enter a zero percent tax detail in the Tax Detail for System Processes field for receivables and payables documents that are automatically generated within the system. The pre-tax amount is the sale or purchase amount (less any trade discount) plus freight and miscellaneous charges. If the module you're working with is set up to calculate terms discounts before taxes, the discount available amount is deducted from the pre-tax amount.

SpecifyTaxDetailsForAutomaticTaxCalculation

Specify whether or not you want specific tax details to calculate tax.

EnableVatReturn

This option will generate summary and detailed Value-added Tax (VAT) information for a specified period, helping to meet governmental VAT reporting requirements.

EnableEuropeanUnionTransactionTracking

This option will allow a user to indicate whether a transaction is an EU transaction without using Intrastat Statistics. The vendor's or customer's tax registration number will be printed on documents.

EnableEuropeanElectronicFundsTransfer

This option will allow a user to enter electronic funds transfers for manual payments and computer checks in Payables Management. You'll be able to setup electronic funds transfer information for your checkbooks, vendors and customers. When bank transfers are entered, the cash-in-transit account from the checkbook is used instead of the cash account. When this option is marked, fields and windows used for Electronic Funds Transfers become available. You must be using the European Direct Debits solution for the electronic funds transfer information entered in Receivables Management. You can't mark the Enable European Electronic Funds Transfer option if you are using another electronic funds transfer solution.

EnablePayablesElectronicFundsTransfer

This option will allow a user to enter electronic funds transfers for manual payments and computer checks in Payables Management. You'll be able to setup electronic funds transfer information for your checkbooks, vendors and customers. When bank transfers are entered, the cash-in-transit account from the checkbook is used instead of the cash account.

EnableCanadianTaxDetail

This option will allow a user to select the tax detail posting account and to view the amounts inclusive of tax in the Receivables Management, Sales Order Processing, and Purchase Order Processing.
