How Bank Charge Are Deducted
The basis for determining the amount of the bank charge is the invoice amount minus withholding tax plus interest.
For example, if an invoice is for 100 USD, withholding tax is 15 USD, and interest is 14 USD, the basis for calculating the bank charge is 99 USD, which is 100 - 15 + 14.
These examples show how settlement priority settings affect a bank charge. Both examples use the bank charge information in this table.
