Documentation
Definition
Taxes on sales/purchases amount in document currency.
Use
The amount serves, together with other values such as the tax code and the tax base amount, as a basis for the automatically created postings for taxes on sales/purchases and therefore also as a base for the advance return for tax on sales/purchases.
Procedure
During document entry, you specify the tax amount providing it is known. If the tax is distributed between several line items with the same tax code, you can specify the total tax amount for one of these line items.
In the case of down payments however, (contrary to this rule) you specify the corresponding tax portion per line item.
If only the tax code and not the tax amount is known, you can select 'Calculate tax' for the first item. The tax amount is then calculated by the system.
