Charge is an extra amount levied upon the basic or gross value of goods sold to a customer. It may be a cost incurred for that sale (like delivery costs) or any reduction in sale value (i.e. discounts) or duties paid to any government or statutory body for making that sale (i.e. different types of taxes) etc. A charge, also known as Transactional Cost, is of different types and covers a wide range of costs - communication charges, legal fees, durability, and definitely also include transportation costs.
The GINESYS Charge master form has been provided for creating and maintaining a record of the various charges needed to complete a Sale Transaction. Existence of the master form allows the charges to be re-usable and allow the charges to be extinct when they are not needed any more.
Whole Document v/s Line Item
Whole Document Charge is a charge which will be charged on the gross/overall value of the invoice irrespective of items present in it. For example, the Delivery Charges are levied on the Gross amount including all charges applicable on the items. Note: In case of these charges, it is the gross/overall value of the invoice that becomes operative, no matter what items are tagged in the invoice.
Line Item Charge is a charge which will be charged on each item's value in the invoice. For example, VAT, Discount etc are defined as Line level charges. Note: These charges may vary from item to item.
