  • Tax Area Code

  • Provincial Tax Area Code

  • Tax Exemption No.

And on the document lines

Handle Tax Group Code in ExFlow Purchase Code

When the Tax Group Code on an invoice line needs to be different than what is defaulted on the master record selected on that invoice line, this can be handled from an ExFlow Purchase Code.

For example, if the Tax Group Code on a G/L account card for Office Supplies is defaulted to NON-TAXABLE, while a line on a Purchase Invoice with that G/L Account needs to be marked as TAXABLE, users could simply add this on the ExFlow Purchase code lines according to picture below.

This would allow users to automate invoice creation in those specific scenarios.
