Re: [SYSTEM21] AOP and VAT

[Richard_Caldicott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I would add that the set up in AFI for VAT is different to all the other
postings.  Whereas you have a field such as LVAL70 for the line value the
field used for line VAT is VAT70 and not LVAT70.    You don't specify a G/L
code or rules as the code invokes a routine that retrieves the appropriate
G/L code defined against the VAT code and then performs all of the required
postings.  If you have added the field LVAT70 to your database and then
chosen this field then you will not get the desired results.

Greetings, Greg.

Regarding your question about OE-related entries in FLPUK4 (the VAT
transactions file), it appears such entries get posted by FI551 - the AFI
program that updates the GL. In other words, FLPUK4 records are created by
AFI processing, not during invoicing.

Assuming you have flagged all you VAT customers and that AFI is setup
correctly, you can run option 1/FIP (AFI to GL update) manually for the OE
application. Alternatively (and this is how we do it), you can create a
Machine Manager entry to run FI task #0042 daily. The MM setup of this
task will prompt you for a source application (OE), just as 1/FIP did.

I highly recommend you conduct extensive testing before doing this kind of
setup in a production environment and that you have the accountants at
your company review and vouch for the test results. If you do not have AFI
configured, you will probably want a consultant to help you set up AFI and
to train your  accountants to use/maintain it.

Best of luck.  By the way, we are at 3.5.2b SP 2.
