unspecified post Explanation: This designation is used for posts for which you do not know the exact specification. See, for example: http://xd.snelstart.nl/KB/a235/wanneer-gebruik-ik-de-specifi... Wanneer u niet gelijk de juiste specificatie weet dan kiest u voor de specificatie 'Vraagposten'. De btw wordt op deze manier goed verwerkt, waardoor SnelStart XD een correcte btw-aangifte maakt. De factuur krijgt een gele vlag zodat u of uw accountant later de juiste specificatie kan kiezen. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 mins (2012-08-28 21:28:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- P.S. If you could communicate in English or Dutch, it would help. My Italian is VERY basic. I believe you said that you are translating from Italian to English but that your source text came from the Dutch and you are unsure of the meaning of the term you are asking about. I hope I have understood you correctly. Translation on the fly of the quote I cited into English is: If you do not know exactly the correct specification, then you should select the specification 'Vraagposten'. In this way, the VAT will be properly processed, so that SnelStart XD will make a correct VAT submission. The invoice is given a yellow flat so that you or your accountant can later select the correct specification. If you can think of a better way of saying this than "unspecified post", please be my guest. Hope I have helped you on the way. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 mins (2012-08-28 21:29:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry - typo in my translation: yellow flag, not yellow flat |

suspense account Explanation: In accounting, 'vraagposten' is an account used to temporarily enter amounts for which there is some uncertainty, for example when the exact nature of a disbursement or receipt isn't clear. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2012-08-29 09:48:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clearing_account to understand the difference between kruisposten and vraagposten Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspense_account Reference: http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/suspenseaccount.asp |
