Sage 50c Pastel POS Cash Out Cash In No VAT on entries?

SUGGESTED

Hello, I have to clarify this with anyone who knows the Pastel 50C POS system very well.

I have a customer who has been on the Pastel POS system for >15 years. They used to use the Cash in Cash out for the petty cash in the shop ie. paying suppliers. They pointed out that the POS entry they capture never separates VAT from the entry... I checked that all GL entries are set up to use 15% VAT, in case this was the issue. 

To clarify, when printing out reporting in any of the Pastel reports, every entry is 100% inclusive. And therefor every entry never shows on a VAT report either.

The have to capture all their slips using a normal Petty Cash cashbook inside the accounting system. Which then means they cannot specify whether the entry was for a Cash or a Credit Card. AND every daily cash up is never done properly.

I have looked at all settings and everything is set up correctly. I have investigated in other packages, and I see that this works function works fine in systems like Xero and Quick Books etc. Why has this never worked in Pastel POS?

    Hello PastelTrainer

    Please note that the system Sage 50c Partner/Xpress does not have a tool to break down the vat when processing a cash-in or cash-out. This is as per design. In customer or supplier processing, the system includes the tax on the invoices. The customer will therefore pay the full amount indicated on the invoice total. This is the same scenario happening when processing payments and receipts in Pastel. When making Payments to suppliers or customers the system does not open the tax column.  You can go to Pastel and process receipts/payments to a general ledger account, the system will provide the option to select the tax processing.
