Sales and purchase VAT

Select the approved company tax template and verify each item’s South African VAT category before submitting. For zero-rated or exempt treatment, retain the evidence required by company policy and practitioner guidance.

On purchases, confirm that input VAT is legally claimable and belongs to the correct period. Ask Finance to review imports, mixed-use, entertainment, passenger vehicles, second-hand goods and adjustments.

Do not run the System Manager VAT bootstrap to repair one transaction: it can rebuild the app's generated tax
templates. Ask the Accounts Manager to review the Company VAT settings and template mapping instead.
