Modifying tax, charge or discount details – An overview

Activity Overview

TCD of a debit / credit note is calculated for the document that is the debit / credit note as a whole or for the line in which the part appears in the debit / credit note. The TCD is usually calculated line wise if the part available in the line incurs some extra tax, charge or discount.

The system retrieves the existing tax, charge or discount details. You can enter the code identifying the tax, charge, discount and the variants for the extra TCD that you want to add. You can also enter the TCD amount, the cost center to which the TCD account is mapped and the analysis and the sub analysis code allocated to it. The total TCD amount for the debit / credit note is posted to the selected finance book under the various account heads in the account currency, base currency of the company and the parallel base currency of the company. VAT is calculated and the default payment schedule is generated and taking into consideration the TCD amounts that have been entered.

The details of the TCD that are entered in this page can be modified as long as the debit / credit note remains in the “Draft” or “Fresh” status. This page also allows you to authorize the debit / credit note. The status of the debit / credit is updated as “Authorized”. The details of this debit / credit note cannot be modified any longer.
