Do you experience recurring discrepancies in your VAT report when importing the SIE file from your payroll system into Business Central? This is a common issue when employees make private expenses that include input VAT.
The solution is simple. By adjusting the settings for the input VAT account (2640 or 2641), you can ensure that the correct VAT template is always registered automatically in the journal.
Here’s how:
1. Activate the Swebase feature Always copy VAT setup to journal lines
2. Configure the following settings in the Chart of Accounts:
- Posting Type: Purchase
- VAT Business Posting Group: NAT (or the corresponding code for National)
- VAT Product Posting Group: 100 (or the corresponding code for 100% VAT)
- General Business Posting Group: NAT (or the corresponding code for National)
- General Product Posting Group: DIV (or the corresponding code for Miscellaneous/Other)
With this setup, the system will always assign the correct 100% VAT Posting Groups when using account 2640 or 2641. The result? No discrepancies in the VAT report during reconciliation – and a smoother handling of expenses.
