Hello,
How about setting up or changing the markup percentage?

In South Africa you would need to change the VAT % to 15% on the 1st of April 2018.

Coincidence that it is April Fool's day?

Follow the steps as explained here. If, of course you are using the clever 4POS matrix pricing, that is all you would need to do & then run an update...

If however, you are not.... You would need to change all your pricing manually as you will now be paying 15% of turnover & not the 14% you used to calculate the selling prices....

Take care as it is R1,000 out of every R100,000 that you can lose!

In the next few days we will be developing a VAT utility to increase all your "Price Override" items - that is items that has a Override price on the system with 1%

This utility will only run on the SQL version of 4POS - version 18.3.7.20 ....

We will cater for the normal rounding rules on the utility eg. Round items to the closest 10c etc.

More info to follow soon....

After deliberation & discussing with many of our customers, it has been decided that this is simply not a good idea...

R9.99 would become R10.09...

R56.99 would become R57.49?

Most customers would effect the changes manually as part of a normal price increase & simply not do a global 1% increase...
