You might receive the same item from different vendors who use different tax rates.

Example: A large vendor uses a standard item tax rate of 18%, and a small vendor providing the same item has a special lower tax rate of 9%.

When you receive stock, you'll need to update your receipts to reflect the correct tax of the item, specific to the vendor.

• Configure the Receipt tax for any vendors that use a non-standard tax rate in Maintenance > Vendors.
• Configure the system setting StockReceiptsTaxToUse to VENDOR.

Important! These settings apply only to stock receipts. The tax rates you set won't apply to stock adjustments such as increases, decreases, transfers, and wastage.

Example

1. In Cinema Manager > Stock receipts, create a new stock receipt for items from your large vendor with no special tax rate.
2. Add a row for the item you received.
3. Save the stock receipt. Because the large vendor has no special receipt tax configured, the item's default tax rate is used.
4. Create a new stock receipt for items from your small vendor with a special tax rate.
5. Add a row for the item you received.
6. Save the stock receipt. The small vendor's specially configured receipt tax is used instead of the items' default tax rate.
