Llama Co is registered to account for sales tax and operates a computerised accounting system. Llama Co is producing training materials for its newly recruited staff relating to data inputs for the purchasing system.
Which one of the following is not an item of standing data used by the purchasing system to process invoices, credit notes and payments?
A The bank account details of each supplier to enable automated payments to be made when due
B The credit terms agreed with each supplier
C The rate of sales tax applicable when the supplier is registered to account for sales tax
D A purchase invoice
Answer in the Book
D A purchase invoice
I am not convinced with the answer in the Kaplan Kit; Please kindly explain.
‘Standing data’ is data that is in the system to be used for all transactions relating to the particular supplier. It will be the same data that is used whenever a purchase invoice is received.
The purchase invoice will be for a different amount each time and so is not standing data (it is not data that stays the same).
