VAT Info Subtask

Use this subtask on the Manage Customers screen to assign the default tax ID number for customers whose transactions may be subject to VAT tax.

When an invoice includes VAT tax, the system uses the tax ID number that you provide in this subtask to keep track of that tax.

Because Costpoint does not recognize both Sales and VAT tax for one customer, you must create a different customer for each taxable location.

VAT Info

Field Description
Tax ID No.

Enter the tax ID number for this vendor. Each customer has only one tax ID. Costpoint allows multiple lines on this form, so you can keep records of other branches and their IDs. For example, if your company is Acme Ltd. in the United Kingdom, you can also keep track of the tax ID and location for Acme S.A. in France.

Tax Location

Enter the tax location (city, state/province, county, or country) that recognizes the tax ID for this customer.

Default

Select this check box or clear it to determine which of these tax IDs is the default for this customer. Select the check box that is adjacent to the Tax ID to indicate that it is the default. Each customer can have only one default tax ID.

OK

Click the OK button to save the entries on this screen and close the screen.
