Thailand Withholding Tax

[tstagliano]

We currently are deploying Concur Expense for our Thailand users and we have the VAT Rates available for selection and the system is calcuating correctly but we also received a request about allowing the Withholding Tax to be selected so wanted to see if anyone else has configured this?

Hi @tstagliano 

I am curious to know whether you were able to make such calculations.

Best,

@AEM  

Below is how we were able to solve for this by providing a field to allow the users to select from a drop down list the availabel Withoholding rates so the form would then perform the calcualtion based on that selection.

*Expense type [Thailand- Car Rental Only] has been added to the to APAC VAT Expense policy.
*Two custom fields added to the form:
Custom 27 [Withholding Rate] with two values 5% and 3% Field editable by Approver & Processor
Custom 29 [Withholding Amount] free formed text Field editable by All 

Amount Calcualtion added to the expense types within the policy of result = C29 = PA * C27
*Audit Rule [Thailand Car Rental] If Emp Group not = Thailand and Expense type in Thailand- Car Rental Only
*Exception [THAILAND] Level 99 Message: This Expense Type is not available for your user Group. Please change the Expense to 'Car Rental'.

Hello @tstagliano 

Thank you for the reply Thomas!

I went ahead and created the steps that you have mentioned below, where a dropdown list with values 1%, 3%, and 5% was created in Custom 24 [Withholding Tax].

And an amount calculation to the expense type dinner result = C24 = PA * C25 where C25 is the Withholding Amount

It appears that the calculation cannot be performed when the data type is a list. When setting the data type of C25 to numeric, the PA is being readjusted. 

Do you think it would be possible to have a chat and discuss this over a video call?

Thank you,
