Impact of Margins on the Alignment of Fields and Columns in the Printed Invoice

The margins on top and left for the header and the columns in the printed invoice are pre-configured. If you reduce these header margin measurements, the alignment of the fields in the printed invoice will be affected. It is suggested that you should avoid altering the default margins in the invoice. In unavoidable circumstances, you can make small changes to the measurement. However, if additional columns and fields are added using F12: Configuration , the alignment will be affected due to the altered margins.

Sales to Parties within GCC Countries

Sales made within VAT-implementing GCC countries are not taxable. The party will pay the tax on reverse charge basis. However, if the party is an unregistered dealer, tax can be charged during sales.

If you are a registered dealer located in UAE and supply goods or services to a registered dealer in Saudi Arabia or Bahrain, no tax will be applied in the sales transaction, but you will have to pay tax on a reverse charge basis. However, if you are supplying to an unregistered dealer in Saudi Arabia, tax is applicable.
