Blank BUSINESS AREA ISSUE IN VAT OUT PUT GL

Question

Suppose I am creating a billing document and the entry view & GL View is like below :
ENTRY VIEW
1     1          100009          Vijay Sales     42,200.00          
2     50          300101          SALES - CTV     35,555.56-     310     110310
3     40          451005          CASH DISCOUNT     711.11     310     110310
4     50          251409          OUTPUT VAT     4,688.89-          110310
5     40          340099          ROUND OFF DIFFERENCE     0.01     310     110310
6     50          300104          SALES - VCD / DVD     2,666.67-     314     101000
In this billing doc. I have given two different types product sale in one invoice. The total VAT output is showing as 4688.89.  In this document 310 & 314 are my business area. Now if I look at the GL View of the document its like the below :
GENERAL  LEDGER VIEW
     1     1     1          130101          Sun.Drs DEALERS CONT     333.34          110310
     1     2     1          130101          Sun.Drs DEALERS CONT     39,199.99     310     110310
     1     3     1          130101          Sun.Drs DEALERS CONT     2,666.67     314     101000
     2     4     50          300101          SALES - CTV     35,555.56-     310     110310
     3     5     40          451005          CASH DISCOUNT     711.11     310     110310
     4     6     50          251409          OUTPUT VAT     333.34-          110310
     4     7     50          251409          OUTPUT VAT     4,355.55-     310     110310
     5     8     40          340099          ROUND OFF DIFFERENCE     0.01     310     110310
     6     9     50          300104          SALES - VCD / DVD     2,666.67-     314     101000
Now Just see at the document. The Business Area is capturing correctly in VAT output for the first sale. But the VAT out put for Second Sale, the business area is blank. Where as the B.A. is perfectly capturing in case of both sales.
It is the same scenario if Iu2019ll take n-number of products in an invoice. Only first productu2019s B.A. is capturing in the VAT output, while in others its showing blank.
So kindly suggest me why is it so? & how can I show the B.A. in every VAT out put GL for n-number if Transaction in one invoice.
kindly send the solution in rnarayan @ videoconmail.com

Answer 1

See OSS note 199886 - Business area in tax line:
Cause and prerequisites
Postings to VAT accounts must be made without business area. The reason for this is that the field "Business area" does not exist in the tax data. Therefore,the advance return for tax on sales/purchases can also only generate postings without business area and these postings must correspond exactly to the original tax postings in your account assignments. Otherwise, the tax accounts would have steadily increasing business area balances.
Solution
You can use function "Balance Sheet Adjustment" (report SAPF180) to display taxes in the balance sheet for business areas.
