Accounting for the VAT Rate Change in January 2010
Following the increase in the VAT rate from 15.0% to 17.5% from the 1st January:
1. On Friday 1st January, select Module/Nominal Ledger/Settings/VAT Codes and change all 15.0's to 17.5. (You will have to be the only user in the system.)
2. Create a temporary VAT code on the first empty line (e.g. "T") and make the rate 15.0% using the same output and input Nominal Codes.
All January transactions will automatically use the new rate of 17.5%, including invoices created from orders/quotations which had the 15% rate. Any transactions before the 1st January should be entered using the new temporary code - take care with records such as sales invoices and purchase invoices which are created after 1st January but dated before 1st January, as you will need to (manually) change the standard VAT code on each line to the new temporary VAT code.

HansaWorld has recorded between 5% and 15% growth each year since 1995, and the software which is available on Windows, Mac and Linux platforms – is known for its exceptional functionality and breadth. 95% of implementations are completed on time and under budget, and upgrades are released every nine months.
Customers interviewed to support HansaWorld’s nomination said they most valued its flexibility, high level of integration and value for money. Matti Zadok of Experian Integration Marketing said the firm was “not aware of any other systems on which we could have achieved so much for anything like the money we have paid for HansaWorld.”
“Everything works in a truly integrated manner,” says Roger Cherowbrier of Topcon. 'We are very impressed with the different levels of analysis offered by HansaWorld. We can assess the turnover and profitability of everything we do.'

As there were so few financial solutions available on the Mac platform, we did consider installing PC systems to make our selection process easier, though such a change posed huge cost implications. However, Hansa presented us with the only viable alternative that complied with our preference to continue operating on a Mac network, at an extremely competitive price.
