Currency Details Section

Currency

When completing the setup of the default currency which was selected on the first Insert Creditor screen, this field will display, allowing the additional fields to be completed.

When inserting an additional currency for the Creditor, available currencies display in the drop-down list. A currency can be added to the supplier individually by selecting it.

Default Currency

Choose the currency that is going to be used most of the time for this supplier. This becomes the default and it can be overridden at transaction entry time.

Tax

Available taxes that have already been setup in the Code Setup application are available from the drop-down list. To attach a tax, select it.

Tax Registered

This flag determines whether the supplier is registered for tax purposes. If the supplier is Tax Registered, this box must be checked and the payment of input tax is the responsibility of the supplier being set up or worked on.

If the supplier is not tax registered, then this box must be unchecked and the collection and payment of any input tax component becomes the responsibility of the Tour Operator. This flag automatically makes the correct calculations depending on whether it is checked or unchecked.

Branch / Department / Account

These three fields can be used to attach a GL expense account that all expenses generated by the supplier can be posted to. Saving expense account details into these fields is only used where the supplier is not a Booking Supplier, i.e. a sundry supplier, and will never be paid for bookings-related expenses, e.g. phone company, rent etc, and the G.L. Expense Account for that supplier is always the same.

 

Payment Details Section

Payment Terms

There are two fields which make up the payment terms for the supplier. The first is a numeric value which is either a) a number of days or b) a date in the month depending on which setting is chosen from the drop-down list in the second field. Combined, these are used to calculate the payment due date of a suppliers invoice transaction. The available options are:

No. or Date	Condition	Example (20)
Date	of following month	20th of month following invoice date.
Date	of current month	20th of the month of the invoice.
nn days	After invoice entry	20 days after invoice entry.
nn days	After invoice	20 days after invoice date.
nn days	After service	20 days after service date.
nn days	After travel	20 days after booking travel date.
nn days	Prior to service	20 days prior to service date.
nn days	Prior to travel	20 days prior to booking travel date.

Deposits Enabled

When checked, the Deposit Terms and Deposit amount fields become live.

Deposit Terms

This combination of integer and drop-down field is used to determine if a deposit or pre-payment is required to be made to the supplier. If the Deposit Enabled box is checked, then the other fields are enabled. The first field is a numeric value that indicates the number of days that the second field describes.

The numeric value (nn) applies as follows:

No. of Days	Condition	Example (7)
nn days	Days after entry	7 days after service entry.
nn days	Days prior to service	7 days prior to service.

Deposit Amount

If deposits are being used, a save cannot be performed unless all 4 deposit fields have values in them.

The deposit amount works in conjunction with the drop-down and can be either an Amount or a Percentage.
