Auto calculate tax in Invoice

[Lahiru Hewa Rajage]

Hi,

I am successfully creating invoices on Sage via the API. 

I want to know whether it is possible to tell Sage to auto calculate the tax amount of each line, when we pass in the tax_rate_id ?

Following is my JSON. 

{"sales_invoice":{"contact_id":"004e60b2331d421aae39eb30760f53ce","date":"13/06/2022","invoice_lines":[{"description":"Product 1","ledger_account_id":"060828c7af6e11ecb2850279d0cc53c5","quantity":1,"unit_price":"50.00000","tax_rate_id":"GB_STANDARD","unit_price_includes_tax":false}]}}

This is what I see on the UI.

 

In a second scenario, if I send the same JSON but with "unit_price_includes_tax":true, it does the following.

Hope my question makes sense. 

Thank you.

Hi, thank you for your question.

This isn't the behaviour we would expect to see and are currently investigating. Our internal reference is AC-7078 and I hope to be able to update you soon.

Thanks

@Lahiru Hewa Rajage - The behaviour has now been improved to provide the tax_amount when setting the unit_price_includes_tax attribute to true.
