Initial document release

Scope.
The new VAT rate will be effective from 1 January. However, since this date occurs in the
future, we cant use this date for testing.
For purposes of the exercise, the tests will be conducted as if the VAT rate change occurred
on 1 December.
We will configure Eproc so that T1 changes from 15% on 30 November to 17.5% on 1
December and the Alias changes from LOW to STD
VAT tests will be conducted according to the following rules:
1. Manually confirmed delivery notes:
If the confirmed delivery date falls between start and end date of a VAT rate entry,
then the rate active at that period should be used for the invoice.
2. Automatically confirmed delivery notes:
If the delivery date selected in Step 2 of the PO wizard falls between start and end
date of a VAT rate entry, then that rate should be used for the invoice.
3. Credit notes:
Each purchase item on a credit note should have the same VAT rate as used on the
corresponding invoice.

Setup / Prerequisites.
The first release candidate of Eproc 2.4 does not contain synchronisation, so it will not be
possible to use Catalogue Management 4.5 to setup VAT rate table in Eproc.
Edit the database manually to configure the VAT Source Table as follows:

So...

Invoices with delivery dates confirmed before 01/12/09 should have a rate of 15%

Invoices with delivery dates confirmed on or after 01/12/09 to 13/12/09 should have a
rate of 15%

Invoices with delivery dates confirmed on or after 14/12/2009 should have rate of
17.5%
