Open the 
Calc. and Post Tax Settlement window.
Closes open Tax entries and transfers purchase and sales Tax amounts to the Tax settlement account.
For every Tax posting group, the batch job finds all the Tax entries in the Tax Entry table that are included in the filters in the definition window.
When the Tax entries are closed, the Closed field in the Tax Entry table is marked. The entry number of the settlement entry that has closed the entry is inserted automatically in the Closed by Entry No. field. This happens only when the amount must be transferred between general ledger accounts.
When a Tax amount is transferred to the Tax settlement account, the account for purchase Tax is credited and the account for sales Tax is debited with the amount from the Tax statement period. The account numbers are found in the Tax Posting Setup table. The account for Tax settlement is credited with the net amount. If the purchase Tax amount is larger, it is debited.
You can use the batch job either to start the posting process or to print a test report.
The posted entries are assigned the dimensions from the general ledger accounts they are posted to.
