It is now possible to enter a donation to charity during invoice entry that will have no implications or impact on VAT and will just impact the gross amount.
To achieve this, two new fields have been added to the PL invoice entry screen: 'Donation to Charity %' and its corresponding amount field. Users can enter the donation percentage in the 'Donation to Charity %' field, then the amount field (which is view-only) will be calculated automatically. 'Donation to Charity %' (avm_discnovat_pct) has also been added to the column sets for Supplier Maintenance.
The new PL parameter 'DONTNINV' must be set to 'Y' to enable these new fields. In addition, existing parameters must be set as follows:
PL/VATDISC = N
PL/GRSFIRST = N
SC/TAXRULES = UK
