Although the amount you receive from your client is reduced by the value of the IR35 deduction, the receipt is posted for the full invoice amount. This ensures that your VAT Return is correct. The overstated customer receipt is offset by a bank payment posted to record the deduction.

2. In Account enter the client's account code, then enter a date for the transaction.
3. Click the customer invoice then click Pay in Full.

The IR35 deduction is posted as a bank payment. This offsets the customer receipt which is posted for the full invoice value to ensure your VAT Return is correct.

1. On the navigation bar click Bank accounts.
2. On the toolbar, from the Payments drop-down click Bank Payment.
3. Enter the payment details, for example:

   Bank	Date	N/C	Details	Net	T/C	VAT
   Bank nominal code	Date of Payment	7020	IR35 deduction withheld	40.00	T9	0.00

   The bank nominal code must be the same as that used for the customer receipt.
4. Click Save then click Close.

Alternatively, if you want the IR35 deduction to appear on the customer record, you can post a sales credit using a T9 tax code, and then refund it.
