Concept: Tax-Only Supplier Invoices

Concept: Tax-Only Supplier Invoices

Tax-only supplier invoices enable you to track and pay taxes to suppliers or tax authorities configured as suppliers. Workday processes tax-only supplier invoice lines as tax-only lines and excludes accounting for spend in the extended amounts.
You can create tax-only supplier invoices when:
  • The original supplier invoice you received omitted tax charges.
  • A supplier sends a supplementary invoice with the tax-only (VAT) amount.
  • You import goods or services and need to pay the tax-only (VAT) amount directly to a tax authority.
When you create a tax-only supplier invoice:
  • You can link the invoice to the original supplier invoices.
  • You can create a negative invoice for tax adjustments and reporting.
  • Workday ignores the extended amount from the lines in the total invoice amount.
  • The invoice uses the tax declaration and reporting framework.
When you create a tax-only supplier invoice, you can’t:
  • Check invoice lines as prepaid.
  • Enter header-level charges such as freight or other charges.
  • Convert the invoice into an intercompany supplier invoice.
  • Link the invoice to other documents such as purchase orders, receipts, or supplier contracts.
  • Include extended amounts in tax forms 1099 MISC and 1042-S.
