Sales Tax

The label for this field is derived from the Tax System 1 label defined on the Tax System form in this site. If no Tax System 1 is defined at the local site, then the label is set to "Sales Tax."

On the Purchase Order Receiving Auto Voucher form, the sales tax from the purchase order being received and auto vouchered displays.

There are three Sales Tax fields on the Voucher Builder form:

  • Header: This field is always enabled. Enter a total tax amount to be distributed among the lines in the grid. This amount can only be distributed among lines where the Sales Tax field is enabled.
  • Grid: This field is enabled if 1) a Tax System 1 is defined in the target site, AND 2) The Active for Purchasing option is not selected at the target site. If this field is enabled, you can enter a tax amount for this purchase order line/release. The amount is used when creating vouchers and adjustments at the target site. (If Active for Purchasing is selected at the target site, the target site automatically generates taxes based on PO and PO line/release tax codes at the target site. These amounts do not display on the Voucher Builder form.)
  • Middle section (below grid): This field displays the sum of the selected purchase order/line tax amounts. This is the distribution tax amount, which must match the total tax amount that was entered in the header before vouchers can be generated.
