2.1.4.3.1.10. Allocate Tax

Allocate Tax. If you wish to allocate tax and/or tax liability amounts in TimberScan, check the Allocate Sales Tax option in admin > System Settings. You will be required to select Timberline as the Export Format.
 
 
NOTE: Sage does not allow third party applications such as TimberScan to write directly to Accounts Payable when selecting to allocate tax. Instead, upon export, the invoices are written to a txt file which is then imported into Sage AP and posted.
 
 
To allocate sales tax, select the Alloc Tax button after the tax has been calculated during data entry:
 
 
A new window opens displaying the calculated tax amounts:
 
 
Enter your amounts in the New Tax and/or New Liab columns for each tax rate you wish to modify. In this example, $8.65 of the $32.05 city tax is accrued as a tax liability.
NOTE: The tax allocated amount must equal the tax amount.
 
 
Upon export, as noted above, invoices are automatically sent to a txt file the system names APImport with the TimberScan User ID and date.
 
To process the file in Sage, select Tools > Import Invoices in Accounts Payable. You will be prompted for the Import file name and to name a file for storing any rejected records. After the import, select Tasks > Post Invoices in Accounts Payable.
 
 
 
The final step involves attaching the images to the posted invoices in Sage. In TimberScan, run the Attach Images to Exported Invoices selection in TimberScan to automatically attach the invoice images to the posted invoices in Sage:
