I probably expressed myself poorly. In gnucash the employee voucher feature is 
not intended to be used in case VAT is involved. It was written with a very 
limited use case in mind. Derek can probably fill in more details.

If you want to handle VAT on expense vouchers you will have to treat the 
employee as a vendor to your company. This will have little additional 
consequences as far as I know.
