Change in document splitting for withholidng tax and partial payment

Question

Hi
Document splitting is active in our system but documents are not splitting in following secnario:-
1. profit centre is not deriving in withholding tax line item while imcoming payment
2. in case of partial payment or on account payment, system unable to derive profit centre
To achieve above, somebody suggest following solution:-
create a new variant with the following settings:
Splitting Method 0000000012
Business Transaction 1010
Transaction Variant 0001
and add bank (analog to 1000/0001) and WT(analog to item category 05100)
OR
Splitting Method 0000000012
Business Transaction 1000
Transaction Variant 0001
and add customer (analog to 1010/0001), vendor (analog to 1010/0001) and WT (analog to item category 05100)
Unfortunatly I am unable to understand above solution.
Please revert step by step changes need to be carried out to achieve above configuration.
Regards

Hi
You have been advised to create a new splitting rule, logically, which is correct. You need to first create the business transaction variant, where in you will tell the system what kind of transactions can happen in that transaction variant. In your case, with holding tax is automatically created at the time of incoming payments. In such a case, create a new transaction variant in the following path:
IMG>Financial Accounting (New)> General Ledger Accounting (New)> Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Extended Document Splitting>Define Business Transactions Variants
In this patth, create a new transaction variant, Z100 and assign all the item categories that you want or has been suggested earlier.
Thereafter assign this transaction variant to your splitting rule
IMG>Financial Accounting (New)> General Ledger Accounting (New)> Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Extended Document Splitting>Define Document Splitting Rule
Than to your Document Type for incoming payment you can assign the new transaction variant Z100.
If you do not want to disturb standard settings, use BADI AC_DOCUMENT to derive profit center for with holding tax in case of incoming payments.
