Sales Register (VAT)

When to use it

When you are working on the sales half of the return and do not want purchases in the way.

Before you start

• The month's sales documents are entered, so their register lines exist.
• You need permission to open the Statutory reports.

Where to find it

It is in two places:

• Reports > Statutory Reports > VAT Reports > Sales Register (VAT).
• The Reports panel, under Tax & Compliance, as VAT Sales Register.

The fields on this screen

The menu version shows only the Month box.

How it works

The report keeps the register lines whose classification names a sale. That brings in ordinary sales, mixed sales, exports and sales returns. The exempt, taxable and VAT columns are totalled at the foot, and the sales side of the return is built from those totals.

Tips and common mistakes

• The Party column is blank on almost every row here. The customer name is saved on the register line as text, but this screen looks it up a different way. When you need the buyer named, use the VAT Register report, whose Party Name column is filled in. This screen also has no PAN and no Miti column.
• The Month list is not complete. You cannot reach bills filed under Ashadh or Baishakh from the month picker. If a month looks empty, clear the Month box and read the Month column.
• Sales returns appear in this list as well as sales. Check the classification column before you read a total as gross sales.
• With no month set, the report runs the whole sales register.
