Distributing Vouchers and Adjustments

You can manually or automatically create distributions for vouchers and adjustments. You can also have the system distribute the amounts for you during the posting process.

Because vouchers may contain a mixture of taxable and non-taxable amounts, you may overwrite the standard tax calculation. To do so, update the Amount fields of tax-related G/L Distribution records. These changes are reflected in the tax fields of the voucher header (which you cannot update directly).

Note:

Because you enter the tax amount on the voucher header, a warning is displayed if the distributed tax amounts do not match the tax amount on the voucher header. The tax amounts are not automatically updated as in A/R. You must update the detail portion on the Voucher Adjustment Distribution form, if the generated tax amounts do not match what you entered for the voucher header.

If the Active for Purchasing check box is selected on the Tax Systems form, the tax fields in the upper part of the Allocation And Tax tab are enabled. If this check box is not selected, none of the tax fields are available.
