Symptoms

For a BU which has VAT active and VAT Tolerance Amount=1 and Uncheck the checkbox “VAT Tolerance Amount Default=zero, when creating a voucher with “Record Output VAT” checked on one line and Entered VAT amount is different than the Vat Invoiced, the voucher cannot be saved due to error message “VAT process can't continue due to the difference between the calculated and entered VAT Amounts. (7030,369) “, which is incorrect as the system is not taking into consideration the Tolerance on VAT Defaults.

If the “Record Output Vat” is not checked on the voucher, the system allows saving the voucher.

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1.Setup Fin>Business Unit Related > General Ledger > General Ledger Definition and open Bu FRA01. On tab Vat Default, access Hyperlink Vat Default. Make sure that you have Calculation Type=Exclusive ,  Vat Use Type=COMM . Also make sure that you fill in the VAT Tolerance Amount=1 and Uncheck the checkbox “VAT Tolerance Amount Default=zero.

2.Create a voucher with 2 lines for BU FRA01 and supplier FRA0000001 with amount 200 and entered VAT amount 39.19 .( Accounts Payable> Vouchers >Add/Update > Regular Entry.

3.Fill in the same amount 100 on both lines, with the difference that on line 1 on Invoice Line VAT, make sure that you have Use Type=COMM and check the “Record Output VAT”. Click on Adjust Affected Vat Defaults

4.On 2nd line of the voucher, the VAT remains as default.

5.When going back to the Invoice Information page, the error message appears :

VAT process can't continue due to the difference between the calculated and entered VAT Amounts. (7030,369)"

6.Click on Vat summary hyperlink and notice that the Vat invoice=19.60 , that differs from VAT entered of 19.59, not taking into consideration the setup on General Ledger definition : VAT Tolerance Amount=1 and Uncheck the checkbox “VAT Tolerance Amount Default=zero

7.If you uncheck the “Record Output VAT” on 1st line and enter the total VAT amount of 39.19 , the voucher can be saved without any error.
