Preamble
In Autopoll it is possible to invoice fillings and bookings as Gross-invoices or Net-invoices. These configurations are being made in the "invoicing profiles". Details under Invoicing
Definition
Autopoll defines a Net-Invoice as an invoice in which the values in the single position lines are printed NET. In case of a Gross-Invoice the values in the single position lines are printed GROSS.
Set of problems
I. Invoice single position lines
In case of mixed invoicing, that means when there are GROSS prices and GROSS rebates/charges which shall be invoiced NET or when there are NET prices and NET rebates/charges which shall be invoiced GROSS, it could occur that the calculation of the amounts in the single position lines is NOT comprehensible. In other words the multiplication of quantity and price in the single position lines will not be the exact amount, but an amount which differs a few Cent.
Examples
Pure Gross Invoicing
Gross invoice with Gross prices in the pricelist

=> comprehensible calculation: 256,13 * 1,319 = 337,84
Net Invoicing with Gross Prices
Net invoice with Gross prices in the pricelist

=> NOT comprehensible calculation: 256,13 * 1,108 = 283,79
=> printed will be 283,90, that means 11 Cent difference
Reason: The Net values have been calculated by dividing the Gross values by 1,19. (337,84 : 1,19 = 283,90)
Pure Net Invoicing
Net invoice with Net prices in the pricelist

=> comprehensible calculation: 256,13 * 1,108 = 283,79
Gross Invoicing with Net Prices
Gross invoice with Net prices in the pricelist

=> NOT comprehensible calculation: 256,13 * 1,319 = 337,84
=> printed will be 337,71, that means 13 Cent difference
Reason: The Gross values will be calculated by multiplying the Net values with 1,19. (283,79 * 1,19 = 337,71)
Solution
There is an important rule to create the correct Gross- and/or Net-invoices.
=> In the case of Gros-Invoicing the prices in the corresponding pricelists should be configured in Gross. In the case of Net-Invoicing the prices in the corresponding pricelists should be configured in Net. The same is valid for the corresponding rebates/charges. Only with that procedure the calculation in the invoice (quantity * price = amount) is comprehensible.
Gross-invoice: => Gross prices in the pricelist => Gross rebates/charges
Net-invoice: => Net prices in the pricelist => Net rebates/charges
II. Invoice total line
Da im Autopoll zur Ermittlung der Rechnungssummenzeile (Nettoendbetrag, Gesamt-Mwst-Betrag und Bruttoendbetrag) die Rechnungszeilenwerte addiert werden, kann es passieren, dass die Werte der Rechnungssummenzeile nicht schlüssig sind. Nettoendbetrag * Mwst-Satz ergeben dann nicht immer den ausgewiesenen Gesamt-Mwst-Betrag.
Example

=> NOT comprehensible calculation: 1498,12 * 0,19 = 284,64
=> printed will be 284,61, that means 3 Cent difference
Reason: The VAT-values of the single postion lines will be totalised and because of the Gross/Net-translation and the rounding to two decimal places these differences will occur.
Solution
Durch das Einstellen der "Abschlussrundung" im Feld Rundungsverfahren im Rechnungsprofil werden die Werte der Rechnungssummenzeile wieder schlüssig und nachvollziehbar. Dies führt aber dazu, dass die Berechnung der Mwst-Beträge der einzelnen Rechnungspositionen und deren Summe nicht zum Gesamt-Mwst-Betrag der Rechnungssummenzeile passen.
Example

=> comprehensible calculation: 1498,12 * 0,19 = 284,64
Recommendation
Prices at the card readers are in most cases Gross. These can be invoiced to the customer who want Gross-invoices. For customers who want Net-invoices it is the best way to create a separate Net pricelist with Net prices and assign this pricelist only to that/these company/s. Details under pricelist
