    Tax Exempt - Pastel Invoicing

    After invoicing an overseas client I noticed that on the invoice under Tax Exempt is a 'N' - the default tax code for this client is 03 (Exempt 0%) - does this 'N' stand for NO and if so what settings must I change to correct this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Good question, Kim - first time I've had it!

    I haven't tested it, but try this:

    In the Customer record, go to the Processing tab and, under "Default Tax", change the setting to "Force tax type" and then, under "Tax Code", select "03 - Exempt".

    Hopefully this will change the "N" to "Y" on the invoice.

    Let me know the outcome!

    Hi Neville,

    I have tried setting to 'default tax' and 'force tax type' and the persistent 'N' remains.

    The simplest other solution is to remove the offending data fields in Forms Designer.

    Kim,
    Neville's advice is good........what I did was to make a special "export invoice" with the needed/not needed fields and save it as a optional form that you use only for export customers and leave the normal form for local customers.
