Use this form to calculate the sales tax that is due for a given
period.
The settlement calculation includes the posted sales tax for the
selected settlement period for the tax transactions in the
form. The calculation only includes the sales tax that has not
yet been paid to the sales tax authority.
You can make several payments for a single period. To post the
settlement automatically, specify a number sequence for the
voucher on the
tab in
the
form.
If you have created a vendor account for the sales tax authority
on the settlement period, a vendor transaction is created
automatically when you select the
check box and
click
OK. If no vendor account is specified, an
employee must manually create a payment to the sales tax authority
to pay the sales tax owed for the settlement period.
Tip
To report the sales tax payment correctly to the sales tax
authority, select the correct report format in the

form.
