1. Explanation

During Goods Receive Note (GRN), select Tax Code = IM, but make sure the Tax Rate = 0

  1. Note 1: It is important to make sure the Tax Rate is set at 0, because the Supplier Invoice amount from overseas supplier is EXCLUSIVE of GST amount.
  2. Note 2: Tax Code configuration will have 6% for IM Tax Code. So during GRN, if you select the IM code set from drop-down list the tax rate will automatically be 6%. Thus, it is advisable to edit the Supplier first, set IM as the supplier's Default Tax Code, but edit the Tax Rate to 0%. This way, whenever the supplier is selected at the GRN, the items will automatically be charged with Tax Code IM but with Tax Rate 0%

GST on imported goods = (Invoice amount + Import Duty + Excise Duty) * GST rate
