Files - Ability to adjust VAT when recording Spend Money direct from the Files page
I like the new feature where you can record Spend Money transactions direct from the Files page, but the whole feature becomes useless if you can't adjust the VAT amount to match that on the voucher/receipt. Switching to 'VAT Exclusive' doesn't give you the ability to amend the VAT value, so if it's out by a penny you have to cancel the operation and record it in the old Spend Money way. Seems a bit silly really.
So, allow users to adjust the VAT amount when recording Spend Money transactions direct from the Files screen.
Thanks

✨ Thanks so much for taking the time to share this idea — we can definitely see why this would make a real difference.
Being able to create a Spend Money transaction directly from the Files page is a helpful improvement, but if there’s no way to adjust the VAT amount to match the receipt exactly, it does create a gap in the workflow. Even a small difference of a penny means the transaction can’t be completed there and the user has to abandon the process and enter it another way, which reduces the value of the feature.
We agree this would make the experience more practical and complete, so we’re moving your idea to Gaining Support. That helps us better track interest in this improvement and show the team the impact it’s having for customers using this workflow.

I'd agree with both of these. The facility is there for the adjustment to be made on Tax Exclusive items in general spend money items or bills in Xero, I can't see why this isn't included for Tax Exclusive items on SDC.

Further to the original post, I would also like to request for the ability to adjust VAT value to be made possible for all other document types (Bills, Invoice, etc.) and not only just Spend Money.
Thank you.
