Receipts paid by card or cash, posted straight to the bank or cash account.
VAT included or on top
Enter the amount the way it is printed on the document; Ledgr splits net and VAT to the fils.

Frequently asked questions
What if part of the VAT is not recoverable?
Each bill line can mark VAT as not recoverable; then it is added to the cost and is left out of recoverable VAT on the return.
