Entering a payment in TAS
Permalink Closed


This is a very basic question, I know, but I'm struggling with it. Can anyone help?  I've simplified the figures:

A customer owes me 100. A debt collection company has collected the 100 and has charged 25% plus VAT, and has transferred the remainder to my bank.

So in TAS I have produced a sales invoice for 100, and a purchase invoice for the 25%+VAT.  Now I've received the balance in my account, what do I enter in TAS to show the customer has paid up and the debt collection invoice is also paid?

Secondly, if I want to reduce the customer's account by 75 (ie. make the customer cover the collection fee but not the VAT which I can reclaim) how do I enter it that way?

Hi ??
I would have a word with your Accountant about this one - am sure, even if they dont use the software, that they will be able to point you in the right direction. Or try the TAS helpfiles as these are pretty good.

What about vat on £100? Wasnt there already an invoice in the system for the debt? Are you double counting income?

The £100 is a repayment for a vehicle; VAT is accounted seperately on the margin of the vehicle.  And yes, the invoice was already entered, I'm not suggesting I've entered it twice.

 Ah right - mightve just been the way I read the question, or it wasnt very clear as you didnt give us the full facts, about the margin scheme issue.  I take it you have a purchase invoice showing the VAT.    But you still need to go via your Accountant or check out the tas help files.
