VAT Invoice Lines
In the lines, information about the nomenclature included in this VAT invoice is contained. VAT Invoice Lines are formed based on:
- purchase invoice, which is the source for this VAT invoice;
- purchase invoice or order to which the payment, serving as the source of the VAT invoice, was applied.
In the case of creating a VAT invoice based on a payment that was not applied to any order or invoice, the system will use the default nomenclature/description specified in the Tax Settings (Ukraine) in the lines of the VAT invoice. Your statement says that when a VAT invoice is created based on a payment applied as an advance (prepayment) to an order, and there are changes in the item nomenclature in that order, these changes will be updated both in the order and in the VAT invoice formed from the payment, without needing to create a Correction Calculation (Appendix 2) specifically for the nomenclature change. In the case of accounting for an invoice related to a partial shipment of a sale after accounting for a partial prepayment on the order, which served as the source for the VAT invoice, the system will not create a VAT invoice based on that shipment invoice.
Fields with amounts such as Price Incl. VAT/Price Excl. VAT, Base Amount, VAT Amount, Total Amount are interdependent, meaning their values are automatically calculated when one of these fields is changed. However, it is possible to edit each field independently if the checkbox Manual Correction is enabled on the corresponding line.
The fields Index and Group Index in the VAT invoice lines are filled in at the moment of issuing the VAT invoice or during its posting. The field Article No. Without VAT - the number of the article or clause of the Tax Code of Ukraine, on the basis of which the transaction is exempt from VAT, is filled in.
Manual creation of Purchase VAT Invoice lines
The Get lines from purchase documents function in the created Purchase VAT Invoice allows re-populating the lines when the supplier’s VAT Invoice differs from the one generated based on the purchase document. To do this:
- Open the created Purchase VAT Invoice;
- Click the Get lines from purchase documents button;
- Select the source type: Purchase Document or Posted Purchase Invoice;
- Choose the lines to transfer to the Purchase VAT Invoice. When transferring lines to the Purchase VAT Invoice, the quantity can be adjusted. New lines are added to the existing ones; old ones are not replaced.

During import, the details of incoming purchase VAT invoices/adjustment calculations are recognized and compared with the vendor's transactions. If a matching transaction is found, the vendor's transaction number is entered, and the source type and source number are filled in accordingly. At the same time, the lines of the purchase VAT Invoice/adjustment calculation are matched with the lines of the source document by analyzing the correspondence of the UKTZED/DKPP code, price, and name. For lines where a match is found, the following fields are filled in: Type, Number, Purchase document No, Purchase document line No.
