** Tax Registered field for Debtor (Mandatory field to update) **

Improvements Introduced

Addition of the Is Tax Registered field for Debtor

A new field is introduced in the Debtor maintenance for this version of AutoCount Accounting. The field, named as Is Tax Registered, is a field that users must maintain if they wish to claim the Bad Debt Relief of outstanding invoices for that debtor. As such, after upgrading to this version of AutoCount Accounting, users will be greeted with an information window specifying how many debtors that do not have this field set (as shown below).

The information message that will show, notifying how many debtors are in the unknown status for the Is Tax Registered

When specifying that a particular debtor is tax registered, users must also specify the tax registration number of the debtor before saving. A further check is also done to ensure that the entered tax registration number complies with the correct length, which is 12 characters long.
