QBXML Item Sales Tax vs VAT


Hi I'm having an infuriating problem with QuickBooks UK. I am doing an InvoidceAddRq and sending ItemSalesTaxRef:FullName. I have "EGS" in my Item List as a VAT item. I also have EGS in my VAT code list after creating an item for testing. I cannot get it to post as it says:

'There is an invalid reference to QuickBooks Item Sales Tax "EGS" in the Invoice.

QuickBooks UK doesn't use Sales Tax - it uses VAT - nowhere can I find to enter a Sales Tax other than VAT. What do I need to do here to get my invoice posting?


Solution

  • Use the below sample code for sales tax

    <SalesTaxCodeRef>
         <FullName>Standard Sales</FullName>
    </SalesTaxCodeRef>
