VAT Calculate on whole document and apply to lines

Hi all

Objects: GB 2.01.B

I realize that Navision calculates VAT on a line by line basis and subsequently rounds line by line.

After many years of operation this now seems to be a problem as the number of invoice lines has increased the VAT rounding has now caused concern. I think the rounding is to 5 decimal places so these values on small invoices are not a problem.

Is there a Navision VAT function that would calculate VAT on the whole document and then apply the relevant portion of VAT value to each line - guessing the answer will be no? Is it possible to reduce the decimal places being calculated to 2 from 5?

If it helps, we currently only deal in GBP.

As always - thanks for any input

    Hi Toddy Boy,

    well, that's how VAT calculation works in versions from 3.0 on. VAT is calculated for the whole document and distributed back to the document lines. You could port this feature to 2.x, but it's quite a task.

    with best regards
