Last updated on FEBRUARY 03, 2021

Applies to:

Symptoms

Added a Voucher through the Excel Voucher Upload spreadsheet, specifying a zero percent VAT Code, with no Entered VAT Amount specified

Voucher Build should create the VAT Voucher in a Postable Status where Entered VAT = 0.00, Calculation Type = Exclusive, VAT Applicability = Taxable, and the VAT Code is coming from the Excel Spreadsheet.

However, Voucher Build is creating the VAT Voucher in a Recycle Status with an Error where Entered VAT = 0.00, Calculation Type = Exclusive, VAT Applicability = Taxable, and the VAT Code is defaulting from the Supplier setup.

If change the VAT Code to the VAT Code specified on the Excel Voucher Upload spreadsheet, and save the Voucher, Voucher is saved in a Postable status.
