Note: VAT is an acronym for value-added tax. Under many different names, VAT is in use in over 130 countries around the world. VAT is a governmental sales tax, a straight percentage that is added to the cost of a good or service. VAT can be inclusive (included in the price of a good or service), or exclusive (added to the price of a good or service).
The VAT-related links on this page appear if the Field Service option to send billing information to Contracts has been selected as part of the installation options.
