Sales Entity

We have introduced a new concept in SecuTix called “Sales Entity”, which models a business organization that is entitled to conduct sales since a Sales Entity has direct impact on the applied VAT rate for products sold through it and on the invoices.

Before this evolution, SecuTix used "Organization" to model the entity conducting sales. And the VAT rate imposed on a match product was determined by the country of the venue where the match was hosted.

However, if the same match is sold through two different entities, e.g. Ticketing one located in Switzerland and another one located in another country, our system until now did not support the possibility to apply different VAT rates based on the entity's country. 

Supported taxable items include competitions/events, advantages & packages containing competitions/events and overheads.

We can now:

1. Create one or more Sales Entities with address and basic information within the same Organization.
2. Configure a VAT mapping at the Sales Entity level. The mapping defines the VAT rate imposed on taxable items sold through the Sales Entity, regardless of the configured VAT rate at the item level.
3. Link a Sales Channel with a Sales Entity. So that products on the Sales Channel can be sold with the mapped VATs based on the Sales Entity's country linked to that Sales Channel. (One Sales Channel can only be linked with one Sales Entity; but one Sales Entity can be linked with one or several Sales Channels).
4. Link an invoice range with a Sales Entity. Invoices generated for a given Sales Entity have sequential numbers and different Sales Entity has different invoice ranges.
