With the administration settings, you can determine which VAT profiles and ledger accounts are used by default in our booking system. By configuring these settings centrally, you do not need to set them separately for each accommodation, package, surcharge or other item.
Open the administration settings
Click the three dots in the top-right corner.
Click Administration-settings.
At the top of the screen, click Set up ledger accounts and tax rates.
You will now see the screen where you can configure VAT profiles and ledger accounts. This screen contains the following tabs: General, Accommodation, Packages, Discounts, Prices, Options and surcharges and Deposit.
Set up general VAT profiles and ledger accounts
Under General, you can configure the default VAT profiles and ledger accounts.
You can assign general ledger accounts to revenue, options and surcharges, cancellation fees, transaction fees, payment differences and rounding differences, among other items.
Select the appropriate VAT profile or ledger account for each item. If the ledger account you need is not available, you can also create alternative ledger accounts. For more information, see the article Ledger accounts.
If you are unsure which VAT profiles or ledger accounts to use, consult your accountant or bookkeeper.
Adjust settings for individual items
The other tabs allow you to assign a different VAT profile or ledger account to a specific item. For example, under Accommodation, you can configure different settings for an individual accommodation.
We recommend only doing this when an item needs to use different settings from those configured under General.
VAT profiles
The available VAT profiles depend on the country in which the business unit is registered. The profile you need depends on factors such as the type of product, service or accommodation.
For more information about the available profiles and different VAT rates, see the article on VAT profiles.
