There's problems here - I've raised it before. My method is to put the non-VAT amount in the field, tick the box and put the VAT amount in the VAT field. Click "Update" and the total is correct. Posting results (usually) in nothing in the Amount field in the tax, but the Tax field is correct. The down side is that EOY I'll have to go though all these and work out a fix - but at least the VAT should be right! Re-loading from the tax report shows the wrong total, but clicking Update puts it right. The really worrying thing is that the systems knows the non-VAT figure (since it appears when re-loaded), but doesn't display it in the Tax report!
