VAT amount to be posted in GBP currency during MIRO UK legal requirement

354 Views

hello,

Our UK Company code has EUR as Currency key. This means that for this company code, the local currency is EUR. If it receives and pays invoices in EUR it has also to post the VAT amount in GBP shown by the vendor on his invoice according to UK VAT regulation. We need to be able to set the rate per invoice and not using the automatic one in the table for a fixed rate per month.

Indeed, the VAT guide (VAT700) makes it clear that the suppliers must show the sterling equivalents of the Net and VAT amounts on the VAT invoice. This means that the VAT amount posted will not depend on the exchange rate set up in the system.

In few words, we need the possibility for a EUR company code which receives an invoice in EUR to be able to post the VAT in GBP according to UK legal requirements.

The remaining problem now is to have the exchange rate field open for manual change!

i did go through SAP notes 776105 and 739958
