BlankYes we need to do something here. As well as depending on the product
the tax often depends on where the customer is - both factors need to be
taken into account and tax needs to be held at the line level ... I think.
This is a more serious change and needs a little thought. Maybe the tax rate
needs to be held at the stock item level, but it would also depend on where
the customer is. There needs to be some kind of tax matrix.

  Phil,

  I can't find how to setup VAT as needed in The Netherlands. (I guess we
have to implement this)

  In The Netherlands, we have 2 kinds of tax:
  insurance tax=6% for insurance companies.

  or VAT:
  - high: 19% for standard
  - Low: 6% for food and some other basic life needs
  - Zero: 0% for some export services and ....

  I guess this should be a property of a stock category.

  The invoice should have a column with a indication of which vat type is
has.
  It should have a total for each vat type (only when >0 ).

  When this functionality is available, please tell me how to configure
web-erp, because I have not found it. (or help me to create an example in my
demo system at: http://195.240.119.84/web-erp)

  When this functionality is not available in web-erp:
  - let's brainstorm how we can implement this:
  * option to turn it off or on for user who do not need this?
  *  stock category?
  * the goverment forces for vat changes from time to time, so we need to
know which percentage was used in the past and/or now?

  with best regards,

  Dick Stins
