How to: Post Tax Collected at Source

Microsoft Dynamics NAV allows you to post Tax Collected at Source (TCS) using:

  • Sales orders or sales invoices

  • Cash receipt journals

  • Sales return orders or credit memos

  • General journals

TCS is deducted on certain financial transactions involving vendors, one time parties, and customers.

For more information about how to post TCS using general journals, see How to: Post Tax Deducted at Source.

The TCS for the posted transaction can be viewed in the TCS entry table.

The TCS Adjustment Journal window is used to correct the TCS amounts that have been deducted, but not paid to the government. The Update TCS Register window is used to track all of the TCS payments that are paid to the government, including relevant challan details. For more information, see TCS Adjustment Journal Window and Update TCS Register Window.
