Setting up use tax

Hi,
How do I go about setting up a use tax for supplies that we consume during operations, such as office supplies?
Thanks,
Shelby

Hello Shelby - there are several factors involved here and there might be a few ways to ...a few questions for you first...
1.  How do you invoice for these office and other usage supplies, by an AP Item type invoice or AP Service type invoice?
2.  Where are you located?
3.  How many levels of taxation districts/jurisdictions do you have in SAP B1?
4.  Do you report taxes directly from SAP B1 or is the information extracted and externally adjusted?
5.  Does your taxation from SAP B1 feed directly into the taxation authorities' systems or do you manually complete the required documents and send them in?
6.  Do you have a user-defined chart of accounts and/or use segementation?
Regards,
Zal
@gary - hey how are things going?  yes, it is 5am on Saturday!
@robert - I am in heaven with two taxation questions in two days!
Edited - oh darn, I just noticed this is from January - sorry folks....

  • Use Tax for Free of charge items

    Here is the scenario:
    In our Business, there is a process to give a Free item with mostly all the products sold online. In SAP, we will create regular sales order with 1 line item as TAN and other item category as TANN.
    The Business wants to calculate Use tax on the 2nd line item where Net value=0. As we use the same Pricing procedure, we cannot charge different taxes based on line item.
    The other option was to send the cost details to Vertex, so that they can store it in Vertex and use for Tax calculations. The technical issue is that whenever the Net value=0, Vertex RFC is not called.
    We have proposed to create a report in SAP which will tell them the order details with Free items but this is not acceptable to Business.
    Has anyone worked on such scenario where Use tax is calculated on the Sales side for Free of charge items.

    The basic concept in tax is seller can levy the appropriate tax on the items which they are billing.  This being the case, I am not sure, why for a free of charge item, tax should be levied.  Can you please share in which Business process, this is being followed.  Needless to mention, if at all you want to achieve this requirement, have a separate condition type for this free goods, set as statistical, so that, only tax portion would be posted to FI.

  • US: Tax-setup of Sales and Use Tax in a company located in Michigan, US

    Dear all!
    Below it's described how the A/P-taxes have to be handeld in our company in Michigan, US. We want to use a very simple TAXUS-setup (No Jurisdiction). Actually we have problem in setting up the tax-scheme of TAXUS with the following cases:
    In the US, there are four situations for our Sales/Use Tax. All four are for A/P only. All four are related to the State of Michigan. The applicable tax rate is either 0% (exempt from tax) or 6% (taxable).
    The first two involve invoices that are correct from the vendor and nothing special needs to be done. The
    payment is made to the vendor and the full amount of the invoice is booked to the expense account (i.e. 123456 Telephone).
    1. The vendor DOES NOT charge sales tax on items that are EXEMPT from sales tax.
    2. The vendor DOES charge sales tax on items that are TAXABLE.
    The second two situations involve invoices that are incorrect from the vendor and our company must account for the sales/use tax.
    3. The vendor DOES NOT charge sales tax on items that are TAXABLE. Our company must accrue for the tax due to the State of Michigan and pay it at the end of the period.
    4. The vendor DOES charge sales tax on items that are EXEMPT from sales tax. Our company must either deduct the sales tax on the invoice from the payment and reduce the amount paid to the vendor OR pay the invoice in full and book the overpayment of tax against the accruals from item #3.
    Especially case #3 is actually the biggest challenge to be setup in the system in order to get the amounts correctly calculated. To our opinion the SAP has to create an additional tax-line item.
    Thanks a lot for a helpful answer or solution!
    Regards,
    Bernd

    Hi Bernd,
    Did you get a solution for your  query? If so, can you please share that? I have the same scenario for Geismar, Louisiana.
    Please let me know how did you configure the Accrued tax. Really appreciate your response.
    Thanks, Reji.

  • Sales/Use Tax - Automatic Account Assignment

    Our use tax on an incoming Accounts Payable invoice gets automatically charged to a GL account.  Is there a way to assign a profit center on that posting so that all postings to that GL account for that company are assigned to a profit center?

    And conditions are company code + GL account = profit center 1? For that you can use substitution, transaction GGB1, make this setting for Cost accounting, line item level and in prerequisites you make if BUKRS = xxxx and HKONT = xxxxxxx, in substitution put COBL-PRCTR = PC1.
    Ask if you need further clarifications.
    regards

  • Setting up new taxes in US in TAXUSJ - to handle federal excise tax

    We are planning to create the same condition in Fi in tax setting and modifying the tax procdure?

    2 Setting up additional taxes in the system for some item which are in addition to standard tax type in US which are in addition to standard input and output tax?
    3. Does anybody have any experience from SD side as to what setting needs to be done and what changes to be done to post tax in the system from SD side?
    4. Do we need to set up a new tax code? Any other way than handling as tax code?

  • Use Tax with TAXUSX -urgent

    Hi,
    We are using TAXUSX procedure since Vertex is active for output taxes in US. But for Use tax manual tax codes are maintained (Vertex is not purchased).
    My issue is - I set up the tax codes U1/2/3/ etc. But the tax calculation is not happening at all. FTXP config for one code is-
    VS1 7% 100 XP1E
    When i post any invoice in FB60, system does not recognize the tax associated. What is the reason? All config is maintained
    **When I use TAXUS procedure, then the same works (change is that in place of XP1E, it is AP1E in FTXP).  But I have to use TAXUSX as Vertex is live.

    As per standard it is not possible.
    Go for ABAP develoment

  • US localization use tax question

    What does Business One enable/disable when we tick the box "Use Tax" in Company Details -> Accounting Data?
    What does Business One enable/disable  when we tick the box "Use Tax" in Warehouse setup screen?
    During my testing of the use tax functionality I was unable to determine why either of these check boxes was needed.
    It seemed to me that overriding the tax type column on the AP marketing documents allowed me to set "Use tax" regardless of the status of the above tick boxes.
    It also seemed as though defaulting the tax type to "Use Tax" on the purchasing data tab of the item master allowed me to pull the "Use Tax" tax type field setting into AP marketing documents regardless of the above tick boxes.

    I believe all options are governing different scope of documents.  If you selected top level, then it should apply to all.  Otherwise, you may just control part of the documents.  In case you already set up on the top level, no other setting should make differences.
    Thanks,
    Gordon

  • No use tax calculated

    we are using ERS to invoice vendor, very odd thing happend: we can invoice 1 PO line, but we can't invoice the other PO line. 
    So user tried to manually settle the invoice for the other PO line using MIRO,  checked " calculate tax " , and we are using U1( self-assessment tax), but when user simulate the entry, it didn't calculate the tax and the entry looks like this:
    DR       AP GR/IR Account
    CR       vendor account didn't show up but has the amount showed up and no tax claculated.
    why is that happened? how to solve it? please advise.
    normally accounting entry should be like this:
    Dr  AP GR/IR Account
    CR  vendor
    CR  Use Tax Payable

    Check if your tax account is set up in Ob40, Not sure other wise why the tax isnt being calculated, you can post tax thorugh tcode Fb41seperately i guess, not sure so plz double check

  • Configuration for Use Tax(USA)

    Hello.
    I have one problem during the project. We have to set the configuration as the customer request us.
    I know that SAP delivers basic tax code for Use Tax of USA.
    Actually, I don't know how to configure in order to post document with journal entry like,
          Debit                    Credit
    Expense  100  /  AP  100
    Use Tax      7   / Accrual Tax  7    <<< These two lines must be created automatically.
    I tried several options but, I failed.
    We set tax procedure 'TAXUSJ' because other subsidiary is already using this.
    Thank you in advance.

    First, make sure that the tax relevant fields in these GL accounts Master are complete.
    For TAXUSJ u2013 Tax code for a specific COA is U1
    I guess (not sure though), you can provide the automatic account determination using the Tcode OB40 to automatically generate the FI posting that you desire.
    Account Transaction Type: USA
    Description: USA-Accrued Use Tax
    Hope this helps,

    Can anyone advise me on what I need to do?
    My existing account is linked to ireland as my bank account details are there, does this make a difference?
    Please help!

    Until you get a UK bank account and credit card, buy and redeem UK iTunes gift cards for use in the iTunes and Mac App Stores. But you need to switch your region/country to the UK store in your account information, as you can't use UK iTunes gift cards in the Irish stores, the gift cards are country specific.
