    How to include VAT for pre-payment invoice amount?

    Hello,

    Thank you for your assistance.

    I have tested both methods recommended by Mr.@Jun Wang and Mr.@KasparsSemjonovs, and each allows us to post the pre‑payment invoice with VAT. I recognize that the optimal approach may vary depending on the specific circumstances. I would appreciate any guidance on which method is generally preferred.

    Thank you again for your support.

    VAT for prepayment invoices are calculated based on the Prepayment G/L account card VAT Prod. posting group. Main one is the VAT Prod Posting group in the GL account (as the VAT Bus. Posting group is taken from Vendor)

    So check the General Bus. and Prod. posting groups in the PO lines, then open General Posting Setup and for this combination find the Prepayment GL account indicated in the setup.
    Then add the values in this G/L account card for the VAT Prod. Posting group. 
    After that might be You need to re-enter the prepayment percentage in the Purchase Order so it gets recalculated, but now the Prepayment should be with VAT.

    It's the same, just showing on different part of the header.

    Hello @Jun Wang
     
    Thank you for your consideration.
     
    In my PO, I can see only the "Pricing Including VAT" flag. Is this the same as the flag you mentioned?

    on a PO, you could set the below flag to yes. In the example, the price is 350, tax 21. The prepayment % is 50%. So the prepayment is calculated as 185.5. From the statistics page the tax amount shows zero, but it has been included.

    I need to enter the the pre-payment amount at the purchase order level. However, those fields are not editable. How can I make them editable?
     
    Thank you so much for your consideration.
