GST (TAX) in Landed Cost

[Former Member]

Hi

What would be the best way to add GTS (Tax) in Purchase > Lnaded Cost Window.

I can see two text boxes for Tax1 and Tax2 but are they link with the G/L accounts. I tried adding Landed Cost but it did not add the TAX1 or TAX2 automatically like in A/P Invoices.

Another option I can think of is to add GST when converting Landed Cost to Gernal Entry and add extra line got the GST (TAX)

or is there any other way of doing this.

Thank you very much for your help

Kind Regards

Hi Sanjaya

The tax1 and tax2 fields are informational only in the landed cost function and do not post to tax to the general ledger. My suggestion wiht Landed Costs is to post the entry to Trading Stock and an offset account. Then post A/P invoices as services for the custom duties, etc. with the relevant tax and offset this to the offset account for the landed cost.
