Difference between TAXINJ and TAXINN

Dear all
I just know TAXINJ is formula based and TAXINN is condition based procedures. But what is formula based? Where and why we need to TAXINJ? What is the fundamental difference between the two?
Can any one explain in detail?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In TAXINJ:
The value of a particular condition is calculated from a set of predefined values ie while defining an TAX code in a TAXINJ the structure is as follows
1 BASB - 100
2.JVRD - 12.5% of BASB
3. JIPC - 4% of BASB
4. JIPL - 2% of JIPC.
All these calculations are structured in the tax code Z1 say for example, when the user wants to have such a calcuation in his PO he need to use the tax code Z1 instead if he want to have JIPL as 8% instead of 2% then in  such a case he needs to create a new tax code as Z2 with JIPL = 8% ( formula of calculation is getting changed)
So the tax code plays a vital role in the determination of the tax condition value in the case of TAXINJ.
Where as in TAXINN:
The condion records are mainted instead of hard coded percentage value in the tax code.
Say for example JIPL for vendor V1 can be maintained as 2% with FV11 transaction similarly the same can be maintained as 8% with a combination of Vendor V1 and Plant P2 so the values of the tax conditions are fetched from Condition records rather than tax codes.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.
Regards.

    Dear Friends,
    Whats the difference between JINFAC and TAXINN?..............

    Dear K R,
    In RVAA01 you can maintain the condition types maintained for JINFAC. You can assign the RVAA01 to your sales area. System will pick the excise condition types from RVAA01 if tax condition maintained in RVAA01
    Further, SAP predefined country specific pricing procedure. For India JINFAC, Depot, STO pricing procedure maintained specific for India. This you can use as a ref or copy the same or you can have modifications according to your business requirements.  India specific in the sense, PP caters mainly the tax structure of India.

    Dear sreedhar kodali, 
    CIN Means Country India Version
    In Indian Taxing procedure, Excise Duty plays a vital role in manufacturing cenario’s. Excise related configuration is known as CIN configuration. CIN Configuration is a topic in itself. 
    Some info on CIN Configuration (it may not appear as understandable below, but if you check on screen, it will be understood better)
    Country Version India comes with four pricing procedures as follows:
    - JINFAC (Sales from manufacturing plants) 
    - JINEXP (Export sales) 
    - JINDEP (Sales from depots) 
    - JINSTK (Stock transfers

    Exchange rate type to be used for Export excise duty converts - When you are creating an Excise invoice for export sales then the exchange rate for duty calculation will be picked up using this Exchange rate type.
    Maintain Plant Settings - In this IMG activity, you maintain excise information relating to your plants.
    Plant Settings - In this activity, you maintain excise information relating to your plants.
    For each plant:
    - Specify whether it is a manufacturing site or a depot.
    - Assign it an excise registration ID. - You can assign the same ID to more than one plant, if required.
    Depot - Indicates that the plant in question is a depot. - Depots are required to prepare register RG 23D, and follow different procedures for goods receipt and invoice generation.
    - Number of goods receipt per excise invoice.
    - Multiple GR for one excise invoice, Single credit
    - Multiple GR for one excise invoice, multiple credit
    Maintain Excise Groups - In this IMG activity, you define your excise groups. For each excise group, you can also control how various excise invoice transactions will work.
    Excise Groups - In this activity, you define excise groups. An excise group allows you to maintain a separate set of excise registers and excise accounts. The RG 23A, RG 23C and PLA serial numbers are created for an excise group.
    Recommendation - Under normal circumstances, excise authorities require every business to maintain only one set of excise registers and one set of accounts.  But through exemption from the authorities, multiple books can be maintained.
    If your company has only one set of excise registers, then you need to maintain only one excise group.
    1. Create one excise group for each set of registers that you need to keep.
    2. Assign the excise groups to plants.
    3. Maintain whether this Excise group is for a depot or not. 
    If you receive only one consignment for an Excise challan then you can leave GR's per EI as blank. If you receive multiple GR's for a given Excise challan and would like to avail multiple credit mark the GRs per EI as 'Multiple GR's for one excise invoice, multiple credit'.   Alternatively if you want to availa the credit only after all the goods receipts have been made mark it as ' Multiple GR for one excise invoice, single credit'.
    4. If you want to automatically create Excise invoice during Sales cycle at the time of billing the tick the indicator 'Create EI'
    5. During depot sales if you do not want to do RG23D selection and posting separately and would like to complete RG23D selection in one step mark the indicator 'RG23D Auto post'. This will post the selected records into RG23D automatically. You cannot cancel the selection later. 
    6. If the indicator 'Default GR qty' is marked system will default the Excise challan quantity on to the Goods receipt if the Excise invoice number is given in the pop-up.
    7. If the indicator 'Folio no create' is marked system will generate Folio numbers for RG23D during receipt of excise invoice into depot.
    8. 'Automatic posting' when ticked will post the Excise invoice other movements automatically along with creation in single step.
    9. 'Create Part1 for Block Stock' when marked will create a Part1 during the receipt of material into Blocked stock .
    10. 'Create Part1 for STO' when marked will create a Part1 during the receipt of material through inter plant transfers. 
    11. 'Create Part1 for consumption stock' when marked will create a Part1 during the receipt of material into consumption stock. Excise Group Governs which set of excise registers a business transaction will be included in.
    Following is the relation between excise group, plant and registration. - In define excise groups in Customizing.
    Then, in transactions involving excise duty, for example, when you post a vendor's excise invoice, you specify which excise group you are using. This information tells the system which G/L accounts to post the excise to.  At the end of the period, when you come to prepare your excise registers, you create different sets for each excise group.
    Indicates that the plant in question is a depot. - Depots are required to prepare register RG 23D, and follow different  procedures for goods receipt and invoice generation. 
    - GR Per Excise Invoice
    - Multiple GR for one excise invoice , Multiple credit
    - Multiple GR for one excise invoice , Single Credit
    Create Excise Invoice Automatically - Instructs the system to automatically create a Sales and Distribution (SD) excise invoice immediately you create a commercial invoice or a pro forma invoice.
    The excise invoice is created in the background. - If you want to make use of this function, you must also define the
    default plant, excise group, and series groups in Customizing for Sales and Distribution (SD), by choosing Excise Group - Series Group Determination.
    RG23D Sales Creation and posting option - RG23D Automatic Option if selected will create Depot excise invoice by  posting the selection of excise invoices in single step.   If this is not selected then you need to separately do RG23D selection
    followed by PGI and then RG23D verification and posting.  If you need automatic posting of RG23D selection then the Post Goods Issue should have been completed before running RG23D selection. 
    Default excise qty in GR - If this indicator is ticked then while doing Goods Receipt using 'MB01' system will default the excise invoice quantity on to the Goods receipt document.
    Folio number for depo Posting - If this indicator is marked then while creating Excise invoice for other movements system automatically does the Verify and Post. You need not separately Post the excise invoice
    Also we can set indicator for creation of part 1 for:
    - Blocked stock 
    - Stock transport order
    - Consignment stock
    Maintain Series Group - In this IMG activity, you define the different excise series groups within your company. Series groups allow you to maintain multiple number ranges for the outgoing excise documents.  Based on excise regulations and exemptions from the authorities you can  maintain multiple number series for outgoing documents. But each of these series has to be declared to the excise authorities.
    - Define excise series groups based on type of outgoing document
    - Assign series group to excise registration ID
    - If no financial postings are required for an Excise invoice in this seris group then you tick the 'No utilization' indicator.
    - If the CENVAT has to be paid immediately and you need not wait for the Fort nightly payment then mark the 'Immediate Utilization' Iindicator.   Example - You could define two series groups, group 001 for excise invoices, and group 002 for 57 F4 documents. 
    - No account postings for CENVAT in sales cycle 
    - No utilization Flag
    If you do not need any CENVAT utilization for an excise invoice but would like to just generate an excise invoice then you need to mark this indicator.
    If the flag is checked then system will create an Excise invoice in the given Series group but there will not be any account postings or Part2 postings. 
    Immediate Utilization of CENVAT - Specifies that when you create an excise invoice, the system immediately pays the amount from CENVAT and creates the Part II entry. Such invoices will not be listed for fortnightly utilization.
    If you have both fortnightly and immediate utilization for the same excise group, the account determination within CIN IMG should point to the ED interim account.
    Account determination for immediate payment will be done exactly the same as being done for fortnightly utilization program.
    Maintain Excise Duty Indicators - In this IMG activity, you maintain the excise duty indicators. 
    IMG > Logistics - General > Tax On Goods Movement > India > Basic Settings > Determination of Excise Duty > Select Tax Calculation Procedure
    In this IMG activity, you specify which tax procedure you want to use for determining excise duties and sales taxes on input materials in  India.
    - If you use condition-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINN.
    - If you use formula-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINJ.
    This tax procedure also supports condition-based excise determination, so that you can work with both concurrently.
    We strongly recommend that new customers use condition-based excise determination. Note that once you have started using a tax procedure, you cannot switch to another one, otherwise you will not be able to display old documents. 
    Maintain Excise Defaults - In this IMG activity, you define which tax procedure and pricing condition types are used in calculating excise taxes using formula-based excise determination.
    If you use condition-based excise determination, fill out the CVD cond. field and leave all the others blank.
    If you use formula-based excise determination, fill out all of the fields as follows:
    - Enter the tax procedure and the pricing conditions that are relevant for excise tax processing.
    - Specify the purchasing and sales conditions types used for basic excise duty, additional excise duty, special excise duty, and cess.
    - Specify the conditions in the sales order that are used for excise rates.
    - Specify the countervailing duty condition type used for import purchase orders.
    See also : SAP Library -> Logistics -> Country Versions -> Asia-Pacific -> India -> Materials Management (MM) -> Condition-Based Excise Determination and -> Formula-Based Excise Determination. 
    IMG > Logistics - General > Tax On Goods Movement > India > Basic Settings > Determination of Excise Duty >
    Condition-Based Excise Determination 
    When you enter a purchasing document, for example, a purchase order, the R/3 System automatically calculates the applicable excise duties using the condition technique.
    Features : The standard system comes with two tax calculation procedures. TAXINN is only supports condition-based excise determination, whereas TAXINJ supports condition-based excise determination and formula-based excise  determination. Both tax procedures contain condition types that cover all of the excise duties and sales taxes applicable.
    Since the exact rates of excise duty can vary on a large number of factors, such as which vendor you purchase a material from, or which chapter ID the vendor stocks the material under, you create condition records for every sort of excise duty.
    When you come to enter a purchasing document, the system applies the excise duty at the rates you have entered in the condition records.
    Customizing : Make the settings in Customizing Basic -> India -> for Logistics – General, by choosing Taxes on Goods Movements Account -> Excise Duties Using Condition Technique and …-> Settings Determination. 
    These activities include one activity where you define a tax code for condition-based excise determination.
    Master Data - Create condition records for all excise duties that apply, and enter the tax code for condition-based excise determination in each. 
    Day-to-Day Activities -  When you enter a purchase order or other purchasing document, enter the tax code for condition-based excise determination in each line item. The system then calculates the excise duties using the condition records you have created.
    When the ordered materials arrive, you post the goods receipt and the excise invoice. The system posts the excise duty to the appropriate accounts for deductible input taxes when you enter the excise invoice. 
    Creating Condition Records for Excise Duty 
    1. In the command field, enter FV11 and choose . 
    2. Enter the condition type that you want to create a condition record for and choose . 
    The Key Combination dialog box appears.
    3. Select the combination of objects that you want to create the condition record for.   On the dialog box, Control Code means "chapter ID." So, for example, to create a condition record for a tax that applies to a combination of country, plant, and chapter ID, select Country/Plant/Control Code.
    4. Choose . 
    5. Enter data as required.  - In the Tax Code field, enter the dummy tax code that you have defined. 
    6. Save the condition record. 
    Formula-Based Excise Determination  -  When you execute a business transaction involving materials that are subject to excise duty, the system automatically calculates the duty for you.
    In order for the system to be able to determine which rate of excise duty to apply, you must have maintained all the data on the Excise Rate Maintenance screen, which you can Master Data®access from the SAP Easy Access screen by choosing Indirect Taxes Excise Rate Maintenance. 
    You maintain the following types of data:
    - Plant master data
    You assign each of your plants an excise duty indicator. You can use the same indicator for all the plants with the same excise status from a legal point of view, such as all those that are in an exempt zone. See also the information about manufacturers that are only entitled to deduct a certain portion of the duty (see Partial CENVAT Credit).
    - Vendor master data
    For each of your vendors with the same excise status from a legal perspective, you define an excise duty indicator. You must also specify the vendor type – for example, whether the vendor is a manufacturer, a depot, or a first-stage dealer. You must also stipulate if the vendor qualifies as a small-scale industry.  For each permutation of plant indicator and vendor indicator, you then create a final excise duty indicator.
    - Customer master data
    Similarly, you assign the same excise duty indicator to each of your customers that share the same legal excise status.
    Again, for each permutation of plant indicator and customer indicator, you then create a final excise duty indicator.
    - Material master data
    Each material is assigned a chapter ID. 
    - Excise tax rate
    For every chapter ID and final excise duty indicator, you maintain the rate of excise duty.
    If your business only qualifies for partial CENVAT credit, you must customize your system accordingly. 
    Let us consider an example to illustrate how the system determines which rate of excise duty to apply to a material. Assume you are posting a sale of ball bearings to a customer. The system automatically determines the rate of excise duty as follows:
    1. Looks up the customer master data to see what status you have assigned the customer. 
    Let's assume you've assigned the customer status 3. 
    2. Looks up the plant master data to see what status you have assigned the plant. Similarly, your plant has status 2.
    3. The system looks up the table under Excise Indicator for Plant and Customer to see what the final excise duty indicator is for customer status 3 and plant status 2: It is 7. 
    4. The system determines the chapter ID of the ball bearing for the plant. 
    Let’s assume the chapter ID at plant for the ball bearings is 1000.01.
    5. Finally, the system looks up the table under Excise Tax Rate to see what rate of duty applies to chapter ID 1000.01 under 
    status 7. 
    Define Tax Code for Purchasing Documents -  In this IMG activity, you define a tax code for the purposes of calculating excise duty when you enter purchasing documents. Only carry out this activity if you use condition-based excise
    determination. 
    - Create a new tax code, and set the tax code type to V (input tax). Do not make any other settings for it.
    - Assign Tax Code to Company Codes
    In this IMG activity, assign the tax code for purchasing documents to the company codes where it will be used.
    Only carry out this activity if you use condition-based excise determination.
    Classify Condition Types - In this IMG activity, you specify which condition types you use for which sort of tax. Note that this only applies to condition types that you use with the new excise determination method. The system uses this information when you create a document from  another one. For example, when you enter an incoming excise invoice from a
    purchase order, or when you create an outgoing excise invoice from a sales order, the system determines the various excise duties in the excise invoice using the information that you have entered here. In addition, when you create a purchasing document, the system only uses the condition types that you enter here.
    - For taxes on purchases, use the condition types contained in the tax procedure.
    - For taxes on sales, use the condition types contained in the pricing procedures.
    The standard system comes with sample settings for the tax calculation procedures and pricing procedures.
    Use these settings as a basis for your own.
    IMG > Logistics - General > Tax On Goods Movement > India > Account Determination
    Define G/L Accounts for Taxes - In this IMG activity, you specify which G/L accounts you will use to record which taxes.
    Requirements - You have set up G/L accounts for each of the processing keys listed below.
    - Assign an account to each of the following posting keys. The accounts for VS1, VS2, and VS3 are used as clearing accounts during excise  invoice verification.
    - VS1 (basic excise duty)
    - VS2 (additional excise duty)
    - VS3 (special excise duty)
    - VS5 (sales tax setoff)
    - MWS (central sales tax)
    - MW3 (local sales tax)
    - ESA (service tax)
    - ESE (service tax expense)
    Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction - In this IMG activity, you specify which excise accounts (for excise
    duty and CENVAT) are to be posted to for the various transaction types.  Enter all the accounts that are affected by each transaction type.  If you use sub transaction types, enter the accounts for each sub transaction type as well.
    Transaction type UTLZ is used for determining accounts only while posting excise JVs and also if the payment of excise duty has to be done fortnightly.  The fortnightly CENVAT payment utility picks up the credit side accounts from the transaction types of GRPO, EWPO, and TR6C for determining the CENVAT and PLA accounts. There is no separate transaction type for fortnightly payment.
    Example:
    - Excise TT DC ind Account name
    - GRPO CR CENVAT clearing account
    - GRPO CR RG 23 BED account
    - GRPO DR CENVAT on hld account
    Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction - In this IMG activity, you assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L
    accounts. When you come to execute the various transactions, the system determines which G/L accounts to post to by looking at the: 
    - Excise group
    - Company code
    - Chart of accounts
    Furthermore, if you want separate account determination settings within an excise group, you can also use sub transaction types. 
    Requirements
    You have already:
    - Defined the G/L accounts
    - Defined the excise groups
    - Maintained the transaction accounts
    Activities - For each excise group, assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts. For most businesses, one set of accounts will suffice for all transactions.
    Note : you need not remit the CENVAT to the excise department immediately, so maintain the credit account for transaction type DLFC as an excise duty interim account. This will be set off when you remit the duty.  Config setting needed to be done in order to get the Excise Details Screen in Material Master.
    Even though this functionality is available in enterprise version, a small configuration step has to be made in Screen Sequences for Material Master.
    Following document helps you to do this configuration.
    - Material Master à Logistics General 
    1. Go to IMG Define Structure of Data Screen for each Configuring the Material master Screen Sequence.
    2. Select your screen sequence. Usually it would be 21. Select the same and click on Data Screen in the left frame.
    3. Once the data screens are exhibited, select data screen no. 15, ie. SSq. 21and Scrn 15, which is “Foreign Trade: Import Data”. Select the same and click on Sub screens in the left frame.
    4. Go to the last sub screen i.e. 21-15-6 - SAPLMGD1- 0001 and select the same. Click on tab view sub screen and ensure that the sub screen is blank.
    5. Now in the last sub screen i.e. no.6 you delete SAPLMGD1 – 0001 and instead add SAPLJ1I_MATERIAL_MASTER and in the screen no. 2205. 
    6. Save the setting.
    7. Create a Material Master and check whether in Screen Foreign Trade 
    – Import, Excise related sub screen appears.

  • Difference between char and varchar, also the difference between varchar2

    Hi,
    Can anyone explain me the difference between char and varchar, and also the difference between varchar and varchar2...

    Varchar2 is variable width character data type, so if you define column with width 20 and insert only one character to tis column only, one character will be stored in database. Char is not variable width so when you define column with width 20 and insert one character to this column it will be right padded with 19 spaces to desired length, so you will store 20 characters in the dattabase (follow the example 1). Varchar data type from Oracle 9i is automaticlly promoted to varchar2 (follow example 2)
    Example 1:
    SQL> create table tchar(text1 char(10), text2 varchar2(10))
    2 /
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into tchar values('krystian','krystian')
    2 /
    1 row created.
    SQL> select text1, length(text1), text2, length(text2)
    2 from tchar
    3 /
    TEXT1 LENGTH(TEXT1) TEXT2 LENGTH(TEXT2)
    krystian 10 krystian 8
    Example 2:
    create table tvarchar(text varchar(10))
    SQL> select table_name,column_name,data_type
    2 from user_tab_columns
    3 where table_name = 'TVARCHAR'
    4 /
    TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME DATA_TYPE
    TVARCHAR TEXT VARCHAR2

  • The difference between SFP+ and X2

    Dear Expert,
    I need to know what is the difference between SFP+ and X2! and can I use SFP+ card and module instead of X2?
    Thanks,
    Mohammad Saeed

    Hi,
    They are both used for 10Gig interfaces.  The difference is the connector type.
    SFP+ is LC and X2 is SC.
    You can not put an SFP+ into an X2 slot or X2 optic into a SFP+.

  • Difference between ok_code and sy-ucomm

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me the difference between ok_code and sy-ucomm

    Hi,
    Actually OK_CODE and SY-Ucomm are the same. But experts suggest use of OK code for following reason:
    In each PAI event that a user triggers by choosing either a pushbutton on the screen or an element in a GUI status, the corresponding function code is placed into the system field SYST-UCOMM or SY-UCOMM and placed in the OK_CODE field (as long as the function code is not empty). Empty function codes are placed in neither the SY-UCOMM field nor the OK_CODE field.
    In your ABAP programs, you should work with the OK_CODE field instead of SY-UCOMM. There are two reasons for this: Firstly, the ABAP program has full control over fields declared within it, and secondly, you should never change the value of an ABAP system field. However, you should also always initialize the OK_CODE field in an ABAP program for the following reason:
    In the same way that the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program and the system field SY-UCOMM receive the contents of the corresponding screen fields in the PAI event, their contents are also assigned to the OK_CODE screen field and system field SYST-UCOMM in the PBO event. Therefore, you must clear the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program to ensure that the function code of a screen is not already filled in the PBO event with an unwanted value. This is particularly important when the next PAI event can be triggered with an empty function code (for example, using ENTER). Empty function codes do not affect SY-UCOMM or the OK_CODE field, and consequently, the old field contents are transported.

  • What is difference between abstraction and encapsulation ?

    Hi,
    I am trying to figure out the difference between abstraction and encapsulation but confused.
    Both are used for data hiding then what is the exact difference ?
    Thanks.

    Both are used for data hiding then what is the exact difference ?This is the picture I have:
    When you encapsulate something you get an inside and an outside. The outside is the abstraction. It describes how the encapsulated entity behaves viewed from the outside. This is also called the type. Hidden inside is the implementation. It holds detail information about how the type's behaviour is accomplished.
    It's a very simplified picture but I think it's quite accurate and it works for me.

  • What is difference between Iterator and Collection Wrapper?

    Hi all,
                  I dont understand the actual difference between Iterator and Collection Wrapper. I observed both are used for the same purpose. Could any one please let me know when to use Collection Wrapper and when to use Iterator??
    Thanks,
    Chinnu.

    L_Kiryl is right.
    Collections support global iteration (through collection->get_next( )) and local iteration (through iterator->get_next( )).
    Each collection has a focus object. Initially, the first object has the focus.
    Any global iteration moves the focus, which is published by the event FOCUS_CHANGED of the collection.
    If you want to iterate on the collection without moving the focus (and without triggering timeconsuming follow-up processes) you can use local iteration. To do so, request an iterator object from the collection and use this to iterate.
    And one more advantage of using iterator: it takes care of deleted entities. If you use global iteration then when you reach deleted entity it will be an exception. But there is no exception with iterator in the same situation.

  • What is difference between modify and update i am using

    hi
    what is difference between mofify and update
    my requiremen is to have three condition checkec while mofifying or updating from a internal table
    the three fields are
    cus no
    status
    date these all are primary key in the database table
    so which sould i use modify or update
    there might be entry already existing in database table or new entry to be created if already existin it should check on the primary keys and updatat if not it should add a record
    pls suggest whihc to use and how to implement the check on teh threee primary key
    like if modify ztable from table it_test
    now where condition ? can be used or not with modify? and if yes how
    if not should i use update will update create a new entry if no entry is there and please give syntex
    regards
    Arora

    Hi Nishant Arora,
    Modify: It works in performing two actions.
    They are: Insert + Update.
    For Example If a record that is exited in database, so you are modifying that record, it updates that particular record.
    Similarly, If the is not existed in the database, you are modifying it, it inserts a new record.
    Update: Update means just it updates the status, I mean it only updates the record. It doesn't inserts any new record if that particular record is not present in the database.
    These are the cases you need to write these statements.
    Syntaxes: :

  • What is Difference between SXMB_MONI and SXMB_MONITOR?

    what is Difference between SXMB_MONI and SXMB_MONITOR?
    Can any explain to this question.please?

    Hello,
    Both are same.
    SXMB_MONI is area menu which will contain all multiple transactions pertaining to monitoring.
    SXMB_MONI contains some functions viz monitoring for Bridging, Archived Msgs, Job overview, persistence layer analysis.
    SXI_monitor directly leads to the message monitoring for the IS, which is part of the SXMB_MONI.
    SXI_MONITOR directly executes the monitoring report.
