Allow Overridable VAT Amounts for Sales Invoices

Feature Request
1

Hi,

As mentioned in previous posts, it would be great if we were able to override the VAT on sales invoices to be over the default value.

We process sales invoices that sometimes require us to enter more VAT than the restricted limit currently allows, which I think is 10p or similar. This would make it the same as you can do on purchase invoices and it is very frustrating that it is locked on sales invoices.

Please can someone tell me if this feature was ever implimented and how to turn it on. If it is not then could I please have it enabled on my account so we can get over this issue and perfectly match the sales invoices wihout extra line entry hacks.

To put it simply, we want the ability to put any figure we want in the VAT column on a sales invoice, and even create a VAT only sales invoice if we really wanted to, just like you can on purchases.

Perhaps Glenn could help me with this issue. We would need the feature added to our account 6131584251.

Thank you and appreciate any help with this.

The same two lines trick should work on sales invoices - one line at 20% VAT with the full net on which the vat is calculated, then a minus line for the same net at 0%

  • cost of repairs £1000 +20% VAT £200
  • less net paid by insurance -£1000, no VAT
  • grand total £200 (which is all VAT)

Hi Ian, thanks for your reply. I was hoping that there was a way to do it without using this hack. It would be nice if you could just input the net you want and VAT you want on both purchases and sales. Would make like a lot easier for those that want that flexibility.

Hi marcus. It may help to post a use case for this so others (myself included) know where and how this sort of situation could happen? Its not something I’ve ever needed. I just let quickfile calculate the vat for me.
