Generate VAT Debit Adjustments

Form ID: (AP504500)

On this form, you can view the list of documents that were paid in full within the cash discount period and to which the system has applied a value-added tax (VAT) reduced based on cash discounts. For these taxes, on the Taxes (TX205000) form, VAT has been selected in the Tax Type box and Reduce Taxable Amount on Early Payment has been selected in the Cash Discount box. For details, see VAT for Early Payments: General Information

You can generate debit adjustments for the documents you select or for all listed documents. When you generate the debit adjustments, the system releases them, applies the cash discount amounts to the appropriate documents, and closes the documents.
