Review the supplier document's tax separately from the pre-tax line subtotal. In the document-review workflow, enter an explicit tax amount, including 0.00 when the source explicitly has no tax, and confirm that subtotal plus tax equals the reviewed total.
In the bill draft, the available tax configuration can control the field and its account requirements. Supported bill tax accounts include the specified expense types and eligible tax-receivable asset subtypes. Choose the account required by your approved accounting treatment.
Do not infer a tax amount solely from the difference between an incorrectly read subtotal and total. Check all source lines, discounts and displayed tax first. A reader suggestion is not a determination that the supplier's tax treatment is appropriate.
If the source is unclear, retain the draft and resolve the evidence before issuance. This workflow records the reviewed amount and mapping; it does not provide tax advice. Confirm the saved tax amount and final total together so the posting reviewer can trace them directly to the supplier document.
