How to: Set Up Unrealized Sales Tax and Sales Payment Discounts

  • Artículo

You can use the General Ledger Setup window to set up unrealized sales tax. You can also set up maximum correction tax amounts so that you can limit the tax correction amounts that are entered for sales and purchases. This allows you to overwrite the calculated tax when there are rounding differences between what is calculated on the purchase order, and what is calculated on the purchase invoice from the vendor.

To set up unrealized sales tax

  1. In the Search box, enter General Ledger Setup, and then choose the related link in Financial Management.

  2. In the General Ledger Setup window, on the General FastTab, fill in the fields as described in the following table.

    Field Description

    Pmt. Disc. Excl. Tax

    Select to calculate the payment discount on amounts excluding sales tax.

    Adjust for Payment Disc.

    Select to recalculate the tax amounts when you post payments that trigger payment discounts.

    This field is used in the context of VAT, not sales tax.
