External Tax Software (Vertex) Currency Issue

We are using external tax software Vertex. A large portion of our customers are in US and for which Vertex/ Tax Reporting works fine. For a US company shipping directly to Canadian Customers, we charge GST/HST to customers. All invoices to Canadian Customers are in CAD currency. All reporting for Canadian customers must be done in CAD currency. However, during billing/account document generation, the external document sent to Vertex is in USD (local currency of US company code).
Is it possible to send info to Vertex from SAP in currency other than local currency of company? How do organizations that ship from US Company directly to Canada handle their Tax reporting from Vertex in CAD currency? We can generare the Tax report in CAD currency from SAP but that somewhat defeats the purpose of using Vertex for all Tax Rates and Reporting. It seems that when document currency is different than local currency, SAP forces info to be sent to Vertex in local currency. Any suggestions/options would be much appreciated.

Hi,
Have you been able to send document currency to Vertex. Would appreciate help!.

Prasad

  • MRKO External Tax Output

    My company is using Sabrix Tax software to calculate tax liability for purchases.  When using the MIRO transaction, I check the "Tax Calculation" box to initiate the output to Sabrix.  I can't locate a similar functionality for transaction MRKO.  Can someone provide guidance?

    Thank you Marssel,  I am not sure why we don't create new tax code while using external tax engine Vertex/Sabrix) in case of increase in Tax rates.

  • Freight condition sent to external tax - pricing

    We are sending freight (as SAPFREIGHT) to our external tax software.  The field is KZWI4 and the line is 832 on the pricing procedure. 
    Tax calculation starts at line 809.  
    As long as our tax user exit specifies the field, does it matter that the field comes sequentially after tax calculation fields?

    Closing as no answer.

  • Posting in foreign currency not allowed for external tax system

    Hello all,
    I created a purchase order for inter-company stock transfer. Then created a corresponding outbound delivery and goods issue using  VL10h and completed goods issue. Then I completed good receipt using MIGO. When I was trying to create a sales order I got this message "Posting in foreign currency not allowed for external tax system". What could be the reasons for this message.  The message number said FS885.
    One final note. I am able to create Billing document with manual batch number input in Delivery document item. But when I am using Batch split I am not able to generate invoice. Can anyone tell me what could be the problem here.

    Hi Samir,
    The Goods Received NI (Allocation Cost Account) need to be balaned in Local and System Currency as this is a Multi Currency account and these are the currencies that Business One will offer reports in.
    The Foreign Currency for this account is irrelevant as you can never get a balance in FC for a multi currency account, neither will you find any reports for this. 
    If the client insists you can create a manual Journal entry in FC only to correct this. Business One does not offer any functionality to correct the Foreign Currency in this scenario. (like Exchange Rate difference for Local Currency and Conversion Differences for System Currency)
    To do the manual JE open the form settings and the tab 'table', here untick the box 'From FC Field'. This will enable you to create a FC JE only.
    Hope it clarifies the issue.

  • Error from External Tax system in CRM Quotation

    Hi,
    We have a Quotation in CRM, as soon as we click on 'Edit' button in WebUI, We get error "External Tax System: An error occurred while calculating tax. This may be an incorrect use of the calculation engine. Please contact your software vendor. Error trying to calculate tax on transaction."
    Ship-to Party is from Bermuda and the Sales Org in Quotation is having country USA. We checked with the team working on VERTEX server (Tax system for USA) as per them the error log getting generated in VERTEX is because country key for Ship-to is not getting passed to VERTEX and the error is sent back to CRM.
    While investigating we found that the error is coming into CRM (lt_messages) via
    FM call CALL FUNCTION 'SPC_GET_PROTOCOL' DESTINATION gv_vmc which is a call to IPC (path: Function Module: PRC_PD_ITEM_SHOW > PRC_INT_ITEM_SHOW > PERFORM get_pricing_document_info > perform get_protocol > CALL FUNCTION 'SPC_GET_PROTOCOL' DESTINATION gv_vmc)
    We are unable to trace how the error is coming from this FM. Can anyone help us to find out.
    Regards,
    Sameer

    Hi Christophe,
    Thank you for your reply.
    We have Quotations in which Tax is working properly. RFC settings are maintained properly.
    In fact we have a case where Sales Org in Quotation is having country US and Ship-to Party having country Thailand which hasn't given any error and ERP Order is also created from it and now we have another Quote with similar scenario which is also not having the tax error, but to proceed with Order creation when we click on Edit, we get that Tax error I mentioned above.
    I'm not sure if any changes at IPC is causing this bacause when I tried to Edit both the Quotes, the same FM SPC_GET_PROTOCOL receives error in one case but not in other. Behavior of CRM_COND_COM_BADI impl. is also similar in both the cases.

  • Error in external tax system: Line: 0 - 0440 TxJCdSTIO The fleximap module

    Hi,
    We have a third-party purchase order where in PO is created in our US company code but the delivery is to a plant belonging to a BRazil company code. (Delivery address is in Brazil).
    Problem is when the user is trying to change the tax code on the invoice tab for a line item he gets the below error.
    Error in external tax system: Line: 0 - 0440 TxJCdSTIO The fleximap module
    Message no. FS861
    We are using VErtex for our US/Canada taxes.
    Can anyone let me know why we are getting the error.
    Raj.

    Hi
    As far as US company code is concerned, the moment the PO is initiated, the integration links would trigger after subsequent process the SO, Billing, Delivery in Brazilian company code.
    The tax codes in both the company codes need to be similar. The system allows to change the tax code but does not process the transaction because of lack of similarity.
    I am sure the inteface links are fine, but recheck the settings in Brazilian cc
    Interesting issue, please do let me know how you would resolve

  • Integration between SAP and third party tax software

    can some body explain me or provide me docs regarding integration between sap and third party tax software like vertex.
    Thanks

    Hi
    First configure the same via the following menu path:
    1.) IMG>Financial accounting>Financial accounting global settings>Taxes on sales/purchases>Basic settings>External tax calculation>Define physical destination
    2.) Then test connection (option is available there).
    3.) If the connection is successful, also verify that the external tax package installed supports the R/3 4.6 version of the API. You do that by going to:
    System Information>Function List
    Check if the following functions are listed:
    • RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC
    • RFC_UPDATE_TAXES_DOC
    • RFC_FORCE_TAXES_DOC
    • RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION
    4.) Then test the tax data retrieval:
    From SE37, select the relevant function modules like RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION.
    The above 4 steps are necessary to satisfy that the RFC connection is established
    Hope useful

  • Vertex install issues with 46C - RFC setup?

    Dear Fellow SAPoniSeries'ers,
    We have installed the Vertex Q Series tax software with our SAP 46c implementation and we are having issues with the Remote Function Call (RFC) setup. We know that Vertex and SAP programs need to have the same "signatures" for the LIBRFC service program, and when we finally figured that out, but now we get the following message for the VERRFC but the RFCTEST works ok;
    "time out during allocate /CPI-C error CM_PRODUCT_SPECIFIC_ERROR"
    It appears that the RFC is trying to run as it does not immediately fail. VERRFC and RFCTEST are both now bound to VERQSU/LIBRFC service program.
    We have upgraded to the ASCII database format, we are running OS/400 V5R3 and the Vertex software is Translink 2.0.22.
    I would GREATLY appreciate any advice or lessons learned.
    THANK-YOU!
    Tim Murphy

    Tim, I don't recall just how we fixed this, but we had the same isses.  Here is a cut/paste from an email I have from Vertex...this is a bit old, but may give some insight:
    In the past, we have encountered issues when customers upgraded their SAP
    Kernel on the AS400 (ex: going from LIBRFC 44 to LIBRFC 48)with a different
    version of the SAP service program. For convenience  Vertex started
    providing a backup LIBRFC file in the event a problem was encountered that
    caused calls to Translink (VERRFC) to fail because of incompatible or
    unmatched signatures in a newer release of SAP's LIBRFC.
    We have also encountered similar issues when upgrading Translink, as you
    became aware when you applied your recent Vertex 3.0 & 3.1 upgrades.
    Because we need to be compatible with various releases of R/3, we provide a
    renamed copy of SAP's LIBRFC that we used at time of binding. This file is
    LIBRFCBCK.
    In the event of a signature violation, the Vertex LIBRFCBCK can be renamed
    in-place to LIBRFC and Translink will find this version of the Service
    Program first. Translink (VERRFC) will always look locally for the file. If
    not found, it will find the one SAP provides in the SAP instance and
    attempt to use it.
    Volker, we use Vertex, issues with ASCII, ECC6.0?

  • Pricing procedure linkage to  EXIT_SAPLFYTX_USER_001 external tax calculati

    Hello friends,
    We are using sabris for external tax calculation. I am new to SD in our pricing procedure I need to make changes to add 20 more fields  to send to Sabrix. I understand that Pricing procedure calls   EXIT_SAPLFYTX_USER_001 for sending fields to sabrix .I wanted to know  how the PP is linked to the user exit and where I will need to add those fields.
    Any help will be appreciated
    Regards,
    Amanda

    Hi,
    Appedning only structure TAX_ALLOWED_FIELDS with the additional data elements  will not suffice as the actual structures that contain and pass the data to external system are TAX_CAL_ITEM_IN00, TAX_UPD_ITEM_IN00,,TAX_FRC_ITEM_IN00.
    TAX_CAL_ITEM_IN00 is used by tax interface during sales tax caluculation (When creating transactions like Sales order/ Invoice in SD or Purchase order/Invoice verification in MM)
    TAX_UPD_ITEM_IN00 this strucutre is used by SAP tax interface when it is updating the external system audit data base (Sabrix/taxware/vertex). (this occurs during Invoice released to accounts in SD, or invoice posting in MM)
    TAX_FRC_ITEM_IN00 is used by sap tax interface when sap does forced updated  to tax system audit data base(This happens because of various reasons if there is any interface issues or the tax calculated by external system is different from the one updated in sap, if any manual changes happens to the tax values in the transaction document)
    Please go through the doucmentaion provided by your tax engine supplier, it has very good information on how the interface works
    Thanks,

  • Getting Communication error with the external tax system(VERTEX_MS0018)

    Hi All,
    I am a new SAP HCM self learner. I am practicing it on company's sandbox system.

I have already tried to solve is issue by going thru previous related to same issue like
    Communication error with the external tax system (VERTEX_MS0018) ...Urgent
    but coudn't solve the issue.
    Please help. Is this issue coming as I am using a training environment? any alternate approach?

    Hi Ravi,
    To disable the connection to Vertex:
    Goto tcode  SPRO > Cross Application Components > Transaction Tax Engine >
    Technical Settings> Define External Tax System
    Here an RFC would be defined. Remove it and try again.
    Also in SPRO > Cross Application Components > Tax Determination based on Jurisdiction Codes > External Tax Jurisdiction > Activate External Tax Jurisdiction.
    Remove the entry 'V' here.
