Extra Notes

• Both Full Tax & Simplified IV can use same Debtor Code as Not mention required Customer GST ID
• Government 5 cents Rounding Mechanism - NO Tax/GST Code
• Deposit for Non Refundable can use Customer Payment (AR_PM) & set NONREFUNDABLE field to 1

- Default is SR

- Will auto reverse once it being Knock-Off

• Doc Disc should proportion by sub total amt for mix tax code (See Cash Sales POS-DocDisc)

Example

- Doc Discount = 10% of Document Discount

- Sub Total for SR = 150.24 => Disc (150.24 * 10%) = 15.02

- Sub Total for ZR = 988.88 => Disc (988.88 * 10%) = 98.89

0r

- Doc Discount = 113.91

- Sub Total for SR = 150.24 => Disc ((150.24/1139.12) * 113.91) = 15.02

- Sub Total for ZR = 988.88 => Disc ((988.88/1139.12) * 113.91) = 98.89

• Mixed Supplies Tax Code

- ES

- TX-ES (Replace TX-N43)

- TX-RE

• Realise Bad Debts Use CN as Normal

- System will contra the provision bad debts done at GST-03 by 6 mth bad debts

- Make sure Knock the actual Bad debts Invoice

• For Purchase Invoice(PI) MUST 1 by 1 post in (i.e. can't Group multi PI in 1 PI)
