    When adding line items to a Sales Order, the Tax Amount displayed in the Order Summary window is calculated based on tax-related fields in the Accounting view of the Account associated to the Sales Order using the formula:

    • If Tax Applicable field in the Accounting view of Account details page is set to Yes and VAT Included is not selected: Tax Amount for the line item is calculated as Amount for the line item multiplied by Tax Rate.
    • If Tax Applicable field in the Accounting view of Account details page is set to Yes and VAT Included is selected: Tax Amount for the line item is calculated as:
      • Get Divisor value using formula: (100 + Tax Rate) / 100
      • Get Pre-tax Line Value using formula: Amount for the line item divided by the Divisor value
      • Calculate Tax Amount using formula: Amount for the line item minus Pre-tax Line Value
    • If Tax Applicable field in the Accounting view of Account details page is set to No: Tax Amount for the line item is zero.
