Split VAT rates:
It is possible to split VAT rates per product. Select a VAT rate and enter the corresponding price.
Example
1 employee is paid €15,- per hour. Thus, the amount ('Price') becomes €15,-.
At 'amount per item' enter 8 and at unit select 'hour' (see image below).
Having set the abovementioned options, automatically 1 x 8 x 15 is calculated. You can change these product details in an event later on. Useful in case the employee worked for less or more than 8 hours. The total costs will be calculated automatically again.
