Use of tax code

Hi,
What is the use of a tax code? I mean once the pricing is done in a sales order and its subsequent documents are created till billing then is there any sap related transaction which uses tax code or it is just used to determine appropriate conditon record in creation of sales order.

Hi Christino,
Tax codes are used to:
1) Check the tax on sales/purchases amount in the document.
2) Calculate the amount of tax on sales/purchases automatically on request.
3) Calculate the non-deductible input tax portion.
4) Check if a tax account with tax type (input or output tax) can be posted to.
5) Determine the tax account.
Thanks,
Swamy H P

Error using a Tax Code

Hi,
I created a new withholding tax code for Argentina. When i tried to post using this tax code I am getting the following error message.
Acct determination not defined for trans. WIT YY XX in chart of accts XXXX
Message no. F5 113
Diagnosis
An automatic posting cannot be created because the account determination for transaction WIT with keys YY XX is not defined in chart of accounts XXXX.
System Response
The document cannot be posted.
Procedure
Depending on the type of processing, you can hold the document and post it later. If this is not possible and the error cannot be eliminated straightaway in customizing, you must leave processing and enter the document later.
Please can someone advise how to fix this issue.
Thank you

Noopers

The solution to your problem is in 'IMG' under extended witholding tax configuration go to posting under that one of the posting transaction type is 'WIT'. Put in your debit and credit amount so witholding amount can post to the GL account whenever payments is made.
If you dont want to post or calculate witholding payment . Go to the setting of tax type ( for US it is FE or ST) there remove the flag 'Post automatically( I cnat remember the exact text) . It will then not give you error . let me know if this helped you or have more questions,
Thanks,

Is it possible to use a tax code in FB60 but which does not post any tax?

Hello Gurus,
Can you advise if it is possible to configure a tax code which can be selected in FB60. But we want this tax code not to post any tax value in SAP but simply to be allowed to be selected and populated in the doucment. In FTXP a tax code can be setup that does not need to have a tax rate % maintained against it or be linked to a GL account. However, this tax code cannot then be used in FB60 as the system asks that a rate is maintained and then that an account must be maintained.
Can you advise if it is possible to maintain a tax code in such a way that it can be selected in FB60 but does not result in any tax posting to any tax account? We want it so that no value is posted, so even a 0% rate would not be good.
Thanks for any ideas on this.
Mart

If you set up 0% tax code, system will NOT post any entry to GL account. You can use the tax code in FB60 & MIRO & PO too.
thanx

Unable to calculate required tax using compounding tax codes in a tax group

Dear All,
My requirement for an ordered item (Sale order/Invoice) is to apply VAT on "discounted price" and then apply advance tax on "sum of List price and VAT calculated before".
Example:
List Price=100;
Net selling Price after 10% disount=90;
VAT Rate:16%;
Adv. Tax Rate: 0.5%
I have performed following steps for this:
Separate tax codes made for these taxes For VAT-used taxable basis="after discount", whereas for Adv.tax="before discount",
and then assigned these codes to a tax group to be applied to the oredered item.
But system is not calcuating adv. tax as per my requirement and rather applying rate on "sum of discounrted price and VAT calculated before".
Kindly provide the workaround for this.

Account Determination for Tax using Sale Tax Code

Hi,
We are using TAXINN and sales tax codes. We are using JTX1 condition in our sales pricing procedure for which we r maintaing condition record with correct tax code applied to it. We have assigned account keys in Tax Procedure, so no acct. key is assigned to JTX1 in sales pricing procedure. In record of JTX1 we are maintaining same tax rate (with tax code assigned to it) for eg. 4 % (not 100%) as maintained in tax code.
Now, we are able to save billing document but while creating accounting document system is giving following error:
No account is spesified in item 0000001002
No acct. was specified for acct. type S in item 1002 of the FICO doc.
The financial acctg. pgm. cannot process the doc.
A sys. error has probably occured in ther sppln. you called up. Check the data transferred to item 1002 of the FICO doc.
Pls. help.
Regards,
Dipti

Hi Dipti,
Hope you are working for Indian Client.
Since you are using TAXINN procedure, you should not use JTX1(Tax Jurisdict.Code) condition at all. As you are aware after implementation of VAT, we should switch off Tax Jurisdiction at all lelvels.
SD Pricing Procedure:
1. Condition Type Settings
a. Excise conditions (if req'd)
b. LST / CST Conditions
c. Freight and Insurance Conditions
2. Access Sequence Settings
3. Maintain Pricing Procedure
4. Assign tax code to Company code
Therefore, check your IMG settings once again.

Error msg Z1019 when using MIRO 'Tax Code V4 cannot be used for Co Code'

When trying to post an Invoice for an EU Vendor using MIRO we are getting an error message 'Tax code V4 cannot be used for Company Code &'. Tax Code V4 is set up via FTXP as an input Tax Code 'Services within the EU' with EU code '5 - Input tax for services - VAT 2010'. Any ideas or thoughts as to why this Tax code is not working as it should be in this scenario?
Many thanks in advance for your help & assistance.

Hi,
it seems there is a validation raising message Z1 019.
Go to transaction OB28 and check the existence of the validation.

Danger of using old tax code in purchase order

Materials management, Finance and controlling modules are active in
system.we have created new tax codes at the end of Dec 2007 in system
as per the legal requirement.Also condition types are maintianed with
validity period. We have updated existing purchase orders (which are
going to be continued in year 2008) with new tax codes.
But now if by mistake while creating purchase order, user picks up old
tax code and saves PO, system does not give any error.
Is there any way by which we can restrict using of old tax codes at the
time of creating / changing Purchase orders?
Thank you for your time.

hi,
check the same in FTXP,limit the validity period of the old tax to 2007 only.

Validation for tax code not to use

Dear Gurus,
i had done validation for purchase/sales tax code not use while doing transction.
Prerequisite
BKPF-BUKRS =1000
CHECK
NOT BESEG-MESKZ IN ZTAXCODE
Message
you can't use this tax code
i had done this validation for parent company code(1000) but it is giving error for our subsidiary company(3000), though the tax procedure is differnet for both the company taxinj(india) and taxusj(usa). Also the end user is making transction in company code 3000 without tax code still system give him error.
Please advice how to rectify it.
Regards,
Rajesh K

Hi,
As per my understanding the Tax Code is same but the Tax Procedures are different for the two Company Codes. The solution is to add Company Code 3000 also in the validation Prerequisite. With this it could work.

Cenvat related tax code cannot be used with freight

Hi
Error Cenvat related tax code cannot be used with freight . When i am try to save A/R Invoice i am getting this error.
Scenario is
          Amount = 389000
          Packing Charges = 12000
          Sub Total = 401000
          BED = 64080
          CESS/Others = 1923
          Vat 2 % = 17340
         Total = 884343.
Thanks

Hi,
Create packing charges in Freight
Administration --> Setup --> General --> Freight
and when u will create Tax code, there is one check box in right upper side (Freight),
unable the check box so you can use the tax code in freight.
I hope this will solve your issue.

Use of new tax code in PO of Earlier Period

We have an issue in Purchase order related to tax code. We created a new tax code with the validity period from 01.03.2015. Now the PO's which are of earlier date means document date of PO is earlier than 01.03.2015, validity period of Tax code causing the issue. I know this error coming because of validity period of Tax code. Now my concern is how we can use this tax code for earlier PO's.

You have maintained the condition records validity as from 01.03.2015 to 31.12.9999, then you should not expect that condition record will be valid for earlier than 01.03.2015.
If you want to use the calculation for earlier date than 01.03.2015, then of-course either you need to change the validity of the existing condition record or you need to create a new condition record which will be valid for the PO document date.

Tax code determination when a PO is created from SRM

Hi Experts
I am using extended classic SRM 7.0
When a PO is transferred to the SAP backend system, sometimes the TAX code is different from what was supplied in FM BBP_PO_INBOUND.
It looks like; tax code determination in backend system determines a different code and does not use the tax code supplied when PO is created.
Is there a way to override this tax determination in backend system so that it uses the Tax code supplied rather than determine a tax code that is different?
This seems to be a problem when a new PO is created because when I change the PO and this sent again, the backend system is updated correctly with the Tax code supplied from SRM.
I hope some has come across this type of situation and can suggest something.
Regards

I put your HTML page (TEST2.html) and CSS file (body_new.css) on my server and it looks OK.
http://www.ossiningdesignguild.com/TEST2.html
It's possible your web server is not properly configured and sends a Content-Type HTTP header that says text/plain instead of text/css for your style sheet file.
If you're using Apache, have your server admin check the httpd.conf file for MIME type settings.
Should they need assistance, send them here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/configuring.html
This is not a problem with your main site since the CSS is embedded, rather than remote.
I'll call you after lunch.

Tax code A0 country IN does not exist in procedure ZTAXIN-Message no. FF713

While posting customer invoice using output tax code A* for country IN, I get the following error message:
Tax code A0 country IN does not exist in procedure ZTAXIN
Message no. FF713
The tax procedure ZTAXIN is assigned to comp code, taxes are configured and everything seems to be fine. The procedure has been manually created (for service tax purposes) and I am wondering whether the procedure might be wrong. Or there are any other settings missing in customizing?
The input tax is working fine, the problem is related only when I use outout tax.
Does anybody have an idea what else could be checked?
Thanks,
Magda

Hi
Go to IMG---->Financial Accounting--->Financial Accounting Global Settings>Tax on sales/purchases>posting--
>Assign tax codes for Non-Taxable transactions
TCode : OBCL
check for the A0 and V0 tax codes whether they are assigned or not.
this will solve your problem

Dear All,
We are having a scenario in which we make freight payment to vendor for import purchase. But while making freight payment we have 3 different components say A, B, C, out of the three the vendor charges service tax on two A and B, but not on C.
While making invoice in MIRO i have given V0 tax code at header and for condition C at item level. And accordingly maintained tax code S1 at line item level for A and B. But still the system does not calculate tax for the line item A and B, gives error as tax code S1 does not exist in TAXINN.
Have maintained all the necessary tax conditions in FV11.
Request to kindly do let us know is there any other way we can execute the following scenario or where have we left out.
regards,
mahesh.

06 750 In case of evaluated receipt settlement pl ease enter tax code

Hi all
i get the below shopping cart with tax code but error in rz20
06 750 In case of evaluated receipt settlement pl ease enter tax code
P.S. vendor is ERS flagged.
reproduced to in quality environment.
in the mean time, i could create a purchase order in ECC for the same vendor without any issues?
why shopping cart could not convert into purchase order . I will debug and find out.
427841 - Tax code is not transferred to back-end system - but this note is not applicable for us.
we are in SRM 7.0 SP13 ECC 6.0 EHP4
Have any one faced this issue.
Thanks
Muthu

Hi Muthu,
I believe that the note 740854 may be able to help you, specifically section 15. Please see the excerpt below:
(15) Self-billing procedure (ERS): Mandatory tax code (0%)
The self-billing procedure always requires the specification of a tax code,
at least code 'V0' with 0%. If a tax code is set in the item of the shipment
cost document, this is copied to the service entry sheet and used for the
invoice creation.
If the tax code is missing in the shipment cost item, the
system uses the tax code from the item of the service order. If this is also
missing, no invoice can be created: Error message 06750: 'In case of evaluated
receipt settlement, please enter tax code' and, in case of an automatic purchase
order generation before the shipment cost item is transferred to FI/CO, the
system might also issue error message VY633: 'No purchase order item was
generated for shipment cost item'.
In addition, there are two SAP
enhancements (user exits) in program RV54POCR (generation of a service order for
shipments) in order to set header and item data deviating from the
standard:
- Function module EXIT_RV54POCR_006 (header data) in group
XV54
- Function module EXIT_RV54POCR_007 (item data) in group XV54
=>
For further information on the purchase order generation, refer to Note
506605
I hope that this helps.
Kind regards,
Conor
