HP Postings Sage

Hi All

I am new, so please accept my apologies if this has been posted elsewhere!

I am trying to post a Van purchase under HP on sage but am a little confused...

 

I posted the invoice for the van £7995 + £1599 for the vat

I then posted the payment (£1599 for the vat)

I credited the invoice balance of £7995 to 0050 (same place i put the invoice) but with a T9 transaction

 

This is where i get confused...

 

Van is £7995

Interest is £2029.04

acceptance fee is £334

total due is £10358.04

 

can anyone assist on how to make these postings?

 

Thanks in advance

Before anything else, what is your VAT basis? If you're on a cash basis, what you've done so far might mean the VAT isn't reclaimed - so it's a good idea to clarify that first, so that it can be fixed if necessary.

Hi

No, not a cash basis, i pay vat upon invoicing not upon receipts/payments

 

Thank you for your help

Okay, that makes things simpler. :)

The credit note you've posted shouldn't be to 0050 - it should be to a suitable code to show the HP balance in the creditors, usually in the mid-2000s. So you can either journal the £7995 (debit 0050, credit the HP code) or edit the transaction so that it uses the HP code rather than 0050.

For your monthly payments, divide the £7995 (capital) by the number of payments, and the £2029.04 (interest) by the number of payments.

Set up two recurring payments, one for the monthly capital amount, which goes to the HP account and reduces the balance on a monthly basis, and the other for the monthly interest amount, which goes to a P&L code for HP interest. When you reconcile the bank each month, you'll see one payment that you reconcile against those two in Sage.

For the acceptance fee, post that as another payment to the P&L, and when you reconcile the bank, it'll be a third transaction in Sage to reconcile against a single transaction on the bank (it'll be taken with the first payment).
