Hello, Has there been any improvement on how to accomplish discount for cach/direct payment? The link you provided, appears to be dead. I'm trying to circumvent the problem, but I'm not sure wether this method is completely legit. Account codes are for belgium, account names should be universal.
Example bill: + I'm buying 2 products from Vendor: - ProductA: 1000 euro, 21% VAT/BTW - ProductB: 300 euro, 6% VAT/BTW These product are to be sold again (company cost, NOT personal) + I can get 2% discount for payment within 7 days (thus also reducing VAT/BTW) + In Belgium, I don't have to pay VAT/BTW, EVEN IF I DONT PAY WITHIN 7 DAYS. This rule only applies if the % discount for direct/cash/quick payment is low enough (max 2%) Thus: + Total VAT to pay (always taking in account the 2% discount) VAT 21%: Base 980 => 205,8 VAT 6%: Base 294 => 17,64 Now after posting the bill, the result on the account tree should be: 604 Costs -> debit: 1000+300 = 1300 411 VAT to get back from government -> debit: 205,8 + 17,64 = 223,44 440 vendors/crediteurs -> credit: 1300 + 223,44 = 1523,44 The discount I MAY use is 26 euro, but this information musn't be added when posting the bill Thus to summarize: +It basically comes down to reducing the VAT on the bill: FROM (without belgian 2% for quick pay rule) 1000*21% + 300*6% TO (with belgian 2% for quick pay rule) 0,98*1000*21% + 0,98*300*6% + Solving the problem may be done by adding a second tax to the products: - ProductA: 1000 euro; tax1: +21%; tax2: -0,02*21% - ProductB: 300 euro; tax1: +6%; tax2: -0,02*6% This could work to post bills (aankoopfacturen), but for invoices (verkoopfacturen) I think the printed result won't be legit. Is the above example ok? Please send feedback. I'm still learning how to to accounting from this open source books available on www.ciro.be (they have very nice practical exercises with solutions). I've been trying to do these things with GNUcash, but it's quite hard to solve this problem in that program. kind regards, Dieter On Thursday, November 11, 2010 9:53:42 PM UTC+1, Timitos wrote: > > Hello to everybody, > > in the last days there was some interest on a cash discount > implementation for tryton on the irc.
