Use

In Thailand, the Structure linkcash journal is used as in other countries, except that there are requirements arising from the use of business places and tax invoices.

Features

You must assign any cash journal documents that involve value-added tax (VAT) to the appropriate business place.

The input and output tax reports list all VAT transactions and show which customer or vendor was involved in the transaction. However, the cash journal does not allow you to enter a customer or vendor master record when you enter a transaction involving VAT. In order to get the required information in the tax reports, therefore, you have to enter the customer or vendor details separately.

You can also print combined receipts/tax invoices for your customers (see Correspondence).

Activities

Customizing

You make the Customizing settings in Customizing for Financial Accounting (FI), by choosing Bank Accounting ® Business Transactions ® Cash Journal.

If you create a company code using the country template for Thailand, the system automatically sets up a cash journal for you and:

You must create a separate cash journal for each of your business places, in order to be able to handle the VAT reporting requirements correctly.

Day-to-Day Activities

When you enter cash journal documents, you specify which business place they are for. When you post the documents to FI, the system creates an accounting document, with the tax invoice information in the header, and with the line items assigned to the appropriate business place.

From the accounting document, you can print a combined receipt/tax invoice. You can also reverse any incorrect tax invoices.

See Entering Vendor Payments and Entering Customer Payments.

Reporting

When your business place prepares an input tax report or output tax report, the report includes all of the VAT items posted in the cash journal, including the names and addresses of the customers and vendors involved.
