The new native WHT module in Business Central should be enhanced to support withholding tax (WHT) posting at the time of vendor payment.

In certain countries, when making a payment to a vendor, users can select multiple invoices and apply a specified WHT percentage. This amount is deducted from the total payment (via check or bank transfer), and the system should automatically generate the corresponding general ledger (G/L) entries for the WHT.

Example:

Payment of invoices totaling $1,000 (including VAT)

• WHT percentage: 5%
• WHT amount: $50

G/L Entries:

• WHT account: -$50
• Vendor account: $1,000
• Bank account: -$950

In some cases (depend on customer need):

• WHT account: -$50 (Source Code = WHT)
• Vendor account: $950 (Source Code = BANK)
• Vendor account: $50 (Source Code = WHT)
• Bank account: -$950 (Source Code = BANK)
