VAT codes in Accounts Payable

Hi all,

I am trying to enter a euro currency invoice into a UK (gbp) company using tax explanation code of VZ and tax rate area UK ZERO. JDE does not like the tax explanation code VZ. JDE sees this as a vatable code and therefore errors even though the VAT amount is zero. See error message below.

CAUSE:
If a currency code is being entered which is different than the company's currency code, a VAT amount is not allowed.
RESOLUTION: Either do not enter VAT tax amount, or enter the same currency code as the company's.

I have tried to enter a taxable amount of zero but the taxable amount keeps defaulting in.
