When creating a new tax account ensure a true tax account is used as a basis. - App Post Tax Payables (APP ID F1597) - Purpose
The output tax account cannot normally be posted directly, which means that a transfer posting for the account balance cannot be made directly to the tax payable account. You can use this app to pay tax amounts by posting the balances of input and output tax accounts to a tax payable account. The app does not require entry of a tax code, enabling you to make manual adjustments to tax accounts directly. Postings can be made in all relevant ledgers for the accounts for which you are responsible.
