Step 2: Configuring general settings

First, the general settings must be configured there.To do so, the following fields in the “Allgemein” menu must be filled in or edited:
  • Gutschein Buchung Konto Nr.: Here you select the account to which the value vouchers are posted. In our example, this is account “1700”.
  • Gutschein Blattvorlage: Here you can select a journal template for the value vouchers. In our example, we selected the “Allgemein” template.
  • Gutschein Buchblattname: Here you can select the journal name with which the value voucher is posted. In our example, this is the journal name “Standard”.

Step 3: Configuring the posting settings

Afterwards, the posting settings must be configured.To do so, first specify the posting type of the vouchers in the “Buchungstyp Gutscheine” field. This affects the posting method used to determine how vouchers are to be added to orders.The following options are available for posting types:
  • Sachkonto
  • Ressource
  • Artikel
  • Gebühr
In our example, we select the posting type “Ressource”.Following this, a sales number can also be specified for the discount vouchers. This is done via the “VK-Nr. Rabattgutscheine” field.
This sales number should be selected based on the posting method or the posting type that is subsequently inserted into the order.

Step 4: Specifying VAT identifiers

Finally, you can specify various VAT identifiers.In the fields “MwSt.-Kennzeichen 1”, “MwSt.-Kennzeichen 2” and “MwSt.-Kennzeichen 3”, you can specify three VAT product groups for the various VAT types in a respective country.Based on these VAT types, the voucher is split within the order.In addition, it is possible to specify the sales numbers, which are based on the posting type, differently for the three VAT types.You can simply assign these to the individual VAT identifiers in the fields “VK-Nr. Rabattgutscheine MwSt.-Kennzeichen 1”, “VK-Nr. Rabattgutscheine MwSt.-Kennzeichen 2” and “VK-Nr. Rabattgutscheine MwSt.-Kennzeichen 3”.
