Tax calculation on AR/Down Payments Invoice

Tax calculation in AR/Down Payments was possible, but you could usually expect the calculated tax to be zero, because the Tax Liable value for any line is fixed to No in SAP Business One.

This produces the line to be sent as Not Liable to AvaTax, resulting usually in an exempt line, without calculated tax.

Now we have included a configuration setting to ignore this field, send the lines as liable, and get the tax calculated as if the lines are liable.

Discount on freight lines 

Until now, when sending freight lines as line items to AvaTax, by default the lines were considered to apply discounts.

This means when applying a document header level discount in SAP, the discount is distributed by AvaTax on all document lines that have the discounted flag.

Now there is a new setting to control if the freight lines are discounted or not. Disabling this settings will make the SAP document header discount not applied by AvaTax to the freight lines.
