Maintain Sales Tax Exemption Certificate info in Customer Master Record

Hello people!
I really need your help in this one: we are going to implement SAP in a company settled in Canada. The users requested us that it is highly important to maintain Tax exemption certificate for GST (GST is "Goods and sales tax" -- not withholding) in the customer master record.
I couldn't find anything in SAP to store this info in the Customer Master Record... have you ever had this issue before? is there a workaround? We are not using any external tax system (for example: Vertex). Any information is useful. Thanks in advance. Maria.

Hi Maria,
I was going through how GST works and I think you can create Tax codes under withholding tax and use the same as withholding tax.
As per my understanding of GST, all your process can be met...
However, for reports because there is no standard avail, you would need to develop reports..
Hope this helps..
Cheers,

  • How to enter customer budget in ECC customer master record.

    Dear all,
    How to enter customer potential sales values in customer master record - XD01.
    We are into retail sector having 10 different merchandise categories. our management want to enter customer potential sales for all 10 categories in customer master record itself.
    with the help of these potential sales field values we want to take a ALV report to compare sales against to potential sales for each category.
    Please suggest us to find out the right solution for this requirement. Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Thanks RAF,
    I noticed I needed to use the button addtional text as well in VD52, though this is limited to 72 characters and not unlimited. Now I'm facing the issue that the commercial invoice is not printing all characters defined in this field, so probably have the layout increase field length.
    Thanks for the help.
    If there is another solution to define a Customer specific materail description then mentioned above I would like to know.

  • Sales tax exempt indicator?

    Is there an indicator in Project Systems that marks a project as "sales tax exempt"? 
    We have certain projects where we are exempt from paying sales tax for materials and we would like to mark these projects as Exempt.   I don't see any indicators in the Project Definition JC20N but didn't know if this would appear somewhere else or  as a config setting.  
    Ultimately we would like the tax exempt status to flow to AP where sales tax would be blocked when the clerk enters the invoice.
    Thanks for the help,
    Jeff

    this is controlled from the material master, sales tab, you can enter tax code
    when this material is selected for procurement via external activity or via item category N in internal activity then it should come up with the tax code entered in the material master
    Same works in SD when you choose the material in sales line item for AR side

  • Location of Indian Tax IDs in Customer Master Record.

    We are enabling India as company code/sales organization. One of the requirements put upon us is to carry 2 tax id numbers on the customer master and at the transaction level. We are being requested to carry a CST (Central Sales Tax) id and a VAT tax id. I am using the VAT registration field kna1-STCEG which is 20 characters long. The business is telling us that they need the CST to be 25 characters. Our original intent was to store it in kna1-STCD1, however this field is only 16 characters long. The business is telling us that the validity years need to be appended to the tax id number which pushes it over the alloted 16 characters. Has anyone else run into this, if so what was the chosen method.

    Hi,
    I had the same problem in my previous implementation. If the tax condition types in your customer master and material master are not in the same sequence, then your condition records would not behave properly. They would either throw out some junk values or multiple condition types may appear in your sales order.
    To over come this, I have made the sequence of the condition types in material master through OVK1 T.code as the same order as the customer master condition types.
    This resolved my problem and the condition records were correctly picked.
    By doing this your issue also would be resolved. Please update the forum if you still face issues or if you use a different method to over ride this.

  • Customer Master Record :Sales area INSO IN IN is not defined for customer

    Hi Experts
    I got error , when creating Customer Master Record .The error message likes below

    I traid so many times maintain with new configuration ,but still field .Please what i have to done to over coome this issue .
    Your Suggestions needful to me .. Please
    Issue Details :
    Message no. F2644
    Diagnosis
    The sales area specified has either not been defined (i.e. there is no entry in table TVTA) or it refers to another sales area for customers (customer division/customer distribution channel in the TVTA detail screen). This means that the customer master data of the sales area entered correspond to the data in the reference sales area and customer master data only needs to be maintained for this reference sales area.
    Procedure
    You can display the relevant and therefore valid sales areas for customers by selecting "Extras" -> "Sales areas" -> "All areas".
    Regards
    Rajesh .P

    Maintain relevant entries in t.code VOR1 and VOR2 and then try again. Here assign the distribution channels and divisions to reference distribution channel and division.

  • Restrict the creation of customer master records at sales area level

    I know that you can supress fields at the company code and sales area level in customer master, but, is there a way in configuration to restrict the creation of a customer master record at the company code and sales area levels?  Only the general data level is needed for this customer account group. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    Hi
    Create the Customer Master without entering the Company Code and sales Area. The system will allow and ask you to fill only the General Data.
    The other way is that Create a Account Group and suppress its all Fields of Accounting View and Sales Area View, so that for that account group you will have to maitain only the General view.

  • Customer Master Record and Sales Area

    Hi All,
    I'm new to SAP SD and so would appreciate some help.
    A Customer Master Record may exist for many sales areas.  Does this mean many sales area within one Sales Organizational right??

    Welcome to the forum.  As a new member, I would like to inform you that there are certain rules and regulations applicable to this forum which you can find to your right screen where it has also been indicated that posting basic / repeated query is not allowed.
    Please AVIOD  posting queries like this.  Since you have indicated that you are new to SD, it would be better if you test in SAP and see whether system is allowing or not so that you will learn on your own.

  • Change in Sales Order/Service Order is updating customer master data

    Hello Experts,
    Here is the change happening in CUSTOMER MASTER RECORD for very few number of cases. This we are not able to replicate, since not able to find out, in which cases it is happening.
    Scenario:
    When the user tries to change address in customer screen (For eg., NAME2,NAME3 ,NAME4 etc.) of change transactions (VA02 OR IW32), the same change is being reflected or updated in the customer master record.
    Note : We tried again doing the change(For the already changed order) in change transactions (VA02 OR IW32) and found that the change was not updating customer master, this time.
    Hence, not able to replicate. Kindly suggest.
    Resolvable suggestion would be highly appreciable.
    Regards
    Mahesh

    I never heard of this before. Per standard, only when customer master address is changed (master data), the changes will reflect in the documents (transactional data). Your scenario reflects the other way round. Hence you may need to debug the program SAPMV45A and see any enhancement is causing this.

  • Customer master record

    well, i m new in sap..may i know what is customer hirarchy, how does it work...and how to configure it in the system?

    Hi,
    CUSTOMER HIERARCHY:
    Customer hierarchies are available in Sales and Distribution, so that you can create flexible hierarchies to reflect the structure of customer organizations. If your customer base includes multi-level buying groups, cooperatives, or chains of retail outlets, for example, you can create hierarchies to reflect the structure of these groups. Use customer hierarchies during sales order processing and billing for determining pricing and running statistics.
    A customer hierarchy consists of nodes.
    To create a customer hierarchy:
    1. Create master records for each node.
    2. Assign the nodes to each other.
    3. Assign the customer master records to the relevant nodes.
    Hierarchy nodes are only valid for a certain period of time. They may also be moved. If a node is moved, the system automatically reassigns all related nodes and customer master records.
    With customer hierarchies, you can assign price or rebate agreements to a higher level node. The agreements are then valid for customer’s at all subordinate levels to this node. You can create pricing condition records for each node indicated as relevant for pricing. If one or more nodes in the hierarchy path of a sales order contain pricing information, the system takes them into account automatically during pricing.
    'How to check'
    All the customizing is in SD/Master Data/Business Partner/Customers/Customers hierarchy
    All the customizing is in SD/Master Data/Business Partner/Customers/Customers hierarchy
    1) Define hierarchy type: just put and ID and a name to the new hierarchy.
    2) Set partner determination: if you want to user the hierarchy in price determination, then, in the orders, at the header level, you have to have a Partner Procedure with a partner function for each level. In the partner procedure, in each partner function you must indicate the source partner function. With this information, in the order, you obtain the business partner for each partner function.
    3) Assign account groups: you indicate which accounts groups are allowed for being part or your hierarchy.
    4) Assign sales areas: simple you indicate which sales areas are allowed in your hierarchy. (Here you can customize common sales areas, just for not having to build de hierarchy in all the different sales areas).
    5) Assigning hierarchy type for pricing: you indicate which classes of documents uses hierarchy in pricing determination.
    It is possible to maintain so called customer hierarchies. This might be useful when for example you create a condition discount for a customer that is part of such a hierarchy structure. All subnodes in the hierarchy below that customer, will thus receive the same discount.
    Customer hierarchy setup, firstly decide the hierarchy type to be used.
    The standard is type A.
    You can also assign a partner function to the customer so that the higher level customer in the hierarchy is copied into a sales order as a partner function - but you don't need that right?
    Next assign your customer account group to the hierarchy type. And enter the combinations that will be allowed for creating the hierarchy.
    You want to assign a ship-to to a payer. So enter the ship to account group and enter the payer account group as the higher level.
    You must also make an entry for permitted sales area assignments. So if you want to a hierarchy for customers in the same sales area then enter the sales area and enter the same one as the higher level sales area.
    All these settings can be found in the IMG. Under SD - master data - business partners - customers - customer hierarchy
    You use for example customer hierarchy when you have an company like Unilever and you agree both on a discount. Unilever does have different locations / businesses and you have to maintain the discount for all customers. If you use a customer hierarchy you can maintain the discount for the partner in the top of the hierarchy and in this way it will be valid for all customers in the hierarchy.

  • Output Determination from the Customer Master Record

    Dear All,
    Can anybody please help me out with the configuration level settings for output proposal from the customer master record.
    Thanks
    Deepak Joshi

    Hi there,
    Can you pls let me know from where did you get the information that O/p can be triggered from customer master records? & in what scenarios you can trigger them?
    My experience in SAP tells me that O/p can only be truggered through condition techique where you will assign the determination procedure to the sales doc type.
    No where I have seen assigning the O/p determination procedure to something related to customer / customer types.
    For the O/p to trigger you need to maintain condition master records. I hope you are not getting confused between condition records & customer master records.

  • Duplicate Customer Master Records

    First thanks for taking the time to read this post. I have always been part of the school of thought of maintaining a common distribution channel for customers. I recently started with a company that has duplicate customer master records. These are customer with the same address, etc. They have been created in some cases four times to accommodate 4 different sales offices, etc for commissions or reporting. I want to propose imrpovement in their system to have one customer instead. Is there any SAP functionality which I can use to have only 1 customer but with 4 different sales offices. I know there is no scope of defining more than sales office in customer master record. I thought of one option to propose TEXT Determination with which I can create a text for the user while creating sales order that this customer has 4 sales offices and allow user to manually enter sales office in sales order. But is there any better option you think of?
    I am trying to dictate the best reasons for maintaining one customer and allowing other factors to control the sales office or partner assignments. I would appreciate any arguments and points you may have as to why you do not want duplicate master records. I.e. system performance, time saved in maintenance.

    Dear Mohit,
    In Customer Master - Sales Area Data go to Extras - Additional Data.
    Here SAP has given five free feilds for any required use. They are under Tab Customer Group.
    You can also change the feild description in CMOD. (you can name it Sales Off 1 / 2 / 3 / 4, etc...)
    These feild can be activated in:
    IMG - Sales and Distribution - Master Data - Business Partners - Customers - Sales - Maintain Reserve Fields In Customer Master.
    Hope this helps.. .

  • How to change Number range to Contact Person in Customer Master Record

    Dear all,
    We are maintaining contact person details under contact person tab in customer master record.
    Currently contact person is being created using VAP1 transaction.
    Can we automate this contact person creation by entering the data in contact person itself?
    and where can we change the number range of contact person.
    I have searched a lot to find the solution for this. Please help me to resolve this issue. Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.
    Best regards
    Venkat

    Hi Venkat,
    To your first question: "Can we automate this contact person creation by entering the data in contact person itself?"
    Yes, you can enter the contact person directly in the customer master in the contact person tab. A number is generated automatically.
    To your second question, go to transaction SNUM, and there use object "PARTNER". Here you can configure number range for contact persons.
    Hope this helps,
