| Tax TypeNormal The tax obligation arises at invoice creation. LN adds the tax amount to
the net amount, which results in the gross amount on invoices. Furthermore, LN directly includes the
chargeable or payable tax amount in the tax analysis in Financials. Shifted LN does
not add the tax amount to the net amount, but posts it to the Purchase Tax
account or the Sales Tax account. Simultaneously, LN generates a reverse
entry on the Shifted Purchase Tax account or the Shifted Sales Tax
contra-account in Financials. You define these accounts in the tax
code posting data sessions. In the tax analysis, the tax amount is included twice: once as
an entry on the tax account, and once as a reverse entry on the shifted tax
account. On Payments The tax obligation arises when the invoice is paid. This tax is
paid in the same way as normal tax, but only becomes reclaimable or payable
after the invoice has been paid. The tax is posted to an interim account and
will only be transferred to the real tax account when the invoice is paid. If
this type of tax is used in another type of transaction, the tax amount is
directly posted to the tax account.
