A new update, Gestix 5.2 is being released.

This update introduces the table of standard VAT exemption reasons, as recommended by the Tax Authority. It also includes several enhancements and fixes relative to version 5.1.

If you use Gestix Cloud, the update is automatic. It appears information to the user that it had an effect, and no need to do anything else.

If you use Gestix Download, running on your computer, and have the updates plan on time, you can download the software update from the location:

www.gestix.com/en/software-update/

The new Table Normalized VAT Exceptions can be accessed in the Admin / VAT rates menu. When invoicing with VAT exemption will now be available the codes in this list. You find in this menu the ability to edit the list to remove the options possibly not necessary in the case of your company.

In countries where it is not compulsory to use certified billing software, the new version does not require changes to the VAT table. However, it offers a new security option to give more freedom to editing invoices and other documents after recorded, as in earlier versions of Gestix prior to the 2008-2010 certification.
