How to define the limit for the VAT adjustment value?

It is possible to set up the VAT adjustment value, by activating the corresponding Administrator option. This set up affects the following operations:

• Documents reversal: Copies the VAT adjustment when the row is reversed (rows with VAT adjustment must be totally reversed);
• Document Conversion: Copies the VAT adjustment regarding the converted rows;
• Transformations: Copies the VAT adjustments only when the last row quantities are transformed;
• Rows copy: The VAT adjustments are not considered.

To set up the VAT adjustment value, follow these steps:

1. Access Administrator | Company | Purchases | Company Parameters | Purchases | Editor;
2. Select the option Allows VAT Adjustments in Purchases;
3. Define the limit amount for the adjustment.

The limit is defined to the group, and the row does not validate that limit, it only checks if it doesn't exceed the VAT for that row. This way, when saving, the following validations are made:

• Validates the limit through the VAT summary, namely, each VAT summary row (group) cannot exceed the defined limit in the Administrator;
• Validates that the total adjustment does not exceed the total VAT for each group;
• Validates that the adjustment for each row exceeds the row's total VAT.

In case of adjustments made directly in the rows, the limit is not used, and the adjustment is limited by the row's VAT. When saving the document, the system validates the indicated adjustments according to the defined VAT Rate Code. Note: The system only allows to indicate a VAT adjustment value that is inferior or equal to the defined limit, and a validation is performed in order to prevent the VAT value from being negative.

When the change to the VAT summary is made, the system reflects the VAT value changed by the user in the document. The rule to put the difference between the VAT calculated by the system and the changed VAT on the first row of each VAT Code is always applicable. Note: This rule applies even if there is a VAT adjustment in a row for that VAT rate code.

The adjustment Limit checkbox is disabled and an option to activate the adjustments by company is presented.

When activating the adjustments in the Administrator, if no value is set up for that limit, the value is 0,01 by default.

You can only make the VAT adjustment for a series in which the prices do not include VAT. After selecting the, Allows VAT Adjustments in Purchases, it is necessary to execute the option All Dependencies in Administrator | Company | Administration | User Fields.
