Hi all, For a company that is exempt from VAT how do I enter the purchase invoices on sage, do I show the net and VAT seperately even though it won't be claimed back but may be in the future if the company goes over the threshold, or do I enter the invoices including VAT on a T0 tax code?? Many thanks.
