Why no field for VAT number
I have just entered an out of pocket registration. However I am surprised that there is no space on the form for the VAT number.

You could enter the VAT number in the receipt reference or description fields. Would that work for you?
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Well I guess I was wondering why every VAT registered entity has a number. PResumably it is important. If it is important why is it not in the accounting package?

Inappropriate?Nicholas,
As long as the receipt or bill you have has the VAT number on it that's good enough.
It's one reason the VAT inspector will need to see your paperwork when he/she comes to call, not just as proof of expenditure...

Inappropriate?In both Denmark and Germany where I operate, invoices must desplay the TAX Registration number of the company issuing the invoice.. So I would have expected there to be the option of entering this number under Company Details, alongside with the other info there.. and to be rendered on invoices.. why is that not the case?
I’m confused
-
Inappropriate?looking at the invoicing template I can see:
div id="company-reg-number
div id="sales-tax-reg-number
div id="your-tax-number
So I must be missing something.
Where do I enter my company-reg-number/your-tax-number which is the same in my book. ? -

Your Sales Tax settings are under Settings > Country Options - from there you can set the sales tax name, your registration number and the tax rates.
Can you see that? ('Settings' is in the top-right...)

Inappropriate?thanks a lot, found it. However it does not 'work' quite like I wanted it too.. but I can work around that though. The thing is that I need my invoices to state my company's Tax Reg. Number (and I would like it to be in the company details on the top.)
But I do not want a Tax column added to the invoice items list. Under the rules in my country (Germany) a small company can opt. to not specify or add VAT if their yearly income is below a specific amount. So the invoice should not add any VAT info, but it still must state the company registration number (which is also the vat.reg. number even if no vat is colculated for the company.)
I realize that I can add this info in the additional info or on a 2nd address line field.. that's how I will do it now.
