Useful Info

About additional charges

Use additional charges to record any extra costs with a purchase order (or return), such as carriage or insurance.

You can enter additional charges individually, or select from a list of additional charges that you've set up. If you use additional charges regularly, it's a good idea to set up a list of charges to make sure that they are applied consistently.

The additional charge consists of:

• A unique code.

• A name to describe the charge.

• The default value of the charge (excluding VAT) specified in your base currency.

• A VAT rate.

• The default nominal account used for posting the cost value.

Apart from the charge code, you can change any of these default details when you add the additional charge to an order.

You cannot discount additional charges.
