Tax definition

I'm getting a tax definition error while importing via DTW. What goes in Tax code field in template. Is it the state code (GA for Georgia.) because that is what I'm doing. Am I right?

Billy,
Are the document subject to Tax? If not create a new Tax Code in SAP. May be '0' - Exempt and use this code in the document template.
STEPS:
Goto Administration > Setup > Financials > Tax > Sales Tax Jurisdictions and click City from Drop down. The SBO Company you create in the US generally comes with a Code '0' defined under City. If you already have it.
Create a new Tax Code: Code = 0, Name = Exempt and in the rows select City from drop down and type 0 in the code and Add.
Now use 0 (zero) in your document for TaxCode

Tax Definition 1 [Message 173-63]

Hi,
Few days back we encountered an issue with posting the documents. Got the error message as Tax difinition1 [Message 173-63]. We were not able to post any of the documents. We tried upgrading the patch level from 31 to 40. That doesn't work then we restore the back up. The product was working fine for 2 days.
Now today we are encountering an issue with posting the A/R Invoice. The document total is correct tax break up is correct but we are not able to add the invoice. We are able to add all the other documents like SO, GRPO, Delivery, Excise Invoice, but at the time of adding the A/R Invoice we are encountering the error message as Tax Definition 1 [Message 173-63].
Please forward your suggestions regarding this issue.
Thanks and Regards

murugappan,
Pl check whether you redefined the tax rate and its period
in tax code,
You have created sales order,deliveries with old tax codes
after that you should have done changes in tax rates of
tax codes and when you are posting ar invoice based on
sales order/delivery,it will show tax definition error.

Tax Rate for CENVAT definition

Hi,
                      I am creating a taxcode for CENVAT+CST. I have the combination like this:
                                            BED=10% on Total
                                            Cess 2% on BED
                                             HSCess 1% on BED
                                            CST 2% ON Total+ BED Taxamount.
                           In the righthand top of the tax definition window the taxrate is showing as 15%.(1021+2 CST).
                   But actually it shoulbe 12.3%.In the documents the tax amounts are showing correctly.Can you explain this 15%?
Regards,
S.G.Sekar

Hi S.G.Sekar....
There is no difference between what SAP is showing and what is your concept of Tax Rates.
Both are same from Calculation Point of view.
Generally tax person says 10.3 as Excise which includes 1021......
Basically the concept is on BED 10 % 2cess and 1 HSCess is being calculated which is nothing but 10.3 where 10 is for BED ans 3 is for 2+3
But in SAP terms it is 1021 and CST 2 means total 15....
Both way it is correct that is why the calculation is coming perfect......
So dont worry it is all OK......

Hi Rajkumar,
If you want to open the Tax definition windows when the user selects the "Define New" option of your combobox, try this code:
If ((pVal.ColUID = "TaxCode") And (pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_COMBO_SELECT) And (pVal.Before_Action = False)) Then
   If oForm.Items.Item("MATRIX_ID").Specific.Columns.Item(pVal.ColUID).Cells.Item(pVal.Row).Specific.Selected.Description() = "Define New" Then
      oApplication.ActivateMenuItem("8458")
   End If

Rounding Tax amount in row

Hi Experts,
One of our customer wants to round the tax amount in each row of marketing documents.
When searched the help of 'Document Settings:General Tab", we found a setting field for this called 'Round tax amount in rows'.
But the same is missing from the Document Settings window, General Tab.
We are using SAP Business One 2007B, PL13
Please Help.
Thanks and Regards
Ajith G

Hi Ajith,
Tax Definition Functions.
Choose ->> Administration.
-> Setup.
-> Financials.
-> Tax.
-> Tax engine config.
Tax Code Determination.
->> Tax Formula.
Select your Formula which you want to ROUND OFF
then pull down from Operation Round and kip your variable.
Simple example,
Service_BaseAmt=Total
Service_TaxAmt=Round(Service_BaseAmt*Service_Rate,0)
It will round off 0.5 to 1.0 and less than 0.5 to 0.0.............
IF you want to Round off final Tax amount(ex. VAT_TaxAmt).
see the example Tax Creation,
Service_BaseAmt=Total
Service_TaxAmt=Service_BaseAmt*Service_Rate
HigheCess_ST_BaseAmt=Service_TaxAmt
HigheCess_ST_TaxAmt=HigheCess_ST_BaseAmt*HigheCess_ST_Rate
VAT_BaseAmt=Total(Total*Service_Rate)((TotalService_Rate))Cess_ST_Rate+((TotalService_Rate)HigheCess_ST_Rate)
[VAT_TaxAmt= Round(VAT_BaseAmt*VAT_Rate,0)]

Purchase tax code Grants Management

hi swapnil,
Tax Liable is defaulted to 'N' based on Tax definition(VATLiable) from Item master,
This Tax Definition field will be applicable to specific localization,
Run query
SELECT T0.ItemCode,T0.VATLiable FROM OITM T0
Based on value in tax definition in item master,tax liable will get populated at row level of marketing
documents,If it is 'Y',then TaxLiable will be 'Y',if it is 'N',then TaxLiable will be 'N'.
I think in 2007B item master Tax Definition field is set Default to 'N',
By table definition itself it is set to 'Y',You can't change it.
You can change manually tax liable in AP invoice from No --> Yes.
Above briefing is based after testing TaxLiable field in demo database.
Check TaxLiable default value in tables OITM,PCH1,
SAP B1 2007B Company Database Tables Reference chm file,
It will be in documentation of SDK.
Hope it clarifies the issue.

Non US Tax (VAT) setup?

Hi,
I have read previous notes concerning how tax is applied and they all seem to relate to previous version of Webtools, and I am none the wiser.
My requirements are:
We have a number of different tax codes to apply to business partners.
We have a number of different tax codes to apply to items.
Source and destination are irrelevant for us (Irish based website with Irish customers).
I do not mind that a customer has to login before they can see VAT displayed.
It would seem that this is not part of the synching process and has to be manually setup.
I have already manually created one of our most common tax codes as an assigned type that applies a factor. I have made this active for both a test customer and item, but it is still not adding VAT with this combination.
Could someone please advise as to what I need to setup in Webtools2007 for this to work.
Thanks.
Martin.

Hi,
Just to let you know, I have followed the documentation and have setup as listed below but VAT is still not being applied after user log on:
Taxes - Definition - General:
Tax code = A1 (matches our main B1 Tax Code and is the default code within Synch Mgr)
Name = IE Sales 21%
Type = Assigned
Country = Ireland
State = -None-
Postal Code = blank
Calc Type = Factor
Basis = Price
Apply Tax to Freight = Unchecked (We deal with freight in another way)
Taxes - Definition - Definition:
ColLowerLimit = 0.00
colUpperLimit = 9999999999999.00 (have also tied it set to 0.00)
colCharge = 0.21
colEffective = 2008-Jan-22
ColExpiration = 3000-Mar-20 (
Business Partners - Partner Detail - Account Info - Taxes:
Against a test BP the tax code shows as active:
Effective Date = 2008-Jan-01
Expiration Date = 3000-Mar-25
Items - Item Detail - Financials - Taxes:
Against a test item the tax code is ticked.
Logging on as the test customer and adding the test item to the basket does not result in VAT being calculated.
Is there a step that I have missed?

When updating withhold tax window error---"This Property Cannot be Updated"

Dear All,
We have upgraded SAP 8.8 PL14 from SAP 2007B. With respect to TDS, we have upgraded based on the TDS Utiltiy Upgrade. Everything upgraded Properly. But, when we try to edit or change on Withholding tax definition or TDS account, an error is coming "This Property Cannot be Updated". Becoz of this we are not able to continue the entry on Particular Section. We are not able to add new WH Code also, since the same error is coming.
Pl help and sugges how to solve this.
Thanks.
Komanduri

DEAR
if u still face teh error then i would request you to please raise a support ticket for ant Case related to TDS as that would be supported by sap only however the other way around but that would not be correct is to make a new WT code with the differnt code but by doing this when the user would sit down for reconciliation he would not be able to do so as the error would be somewhat "cannot use two WT code category

Tax Total

Hi All,
We have found three sales orders created through SB1 Interface, where we define tax (12%) for every item at row level, but when we see at the end of the document, it does not show any amount on Tax (VatSum), where that tax field at the end of the sales order is not editable. We checked the BP and Item Master Data, looking for Tax Definitions, and everything seems to be fine, in fact, when we try to create anoter sales order using the same BP and Items, the sum of tax amount is OK, please advise.

Hi Mariaem
Open the Document and in the line level u add tax liable from Form Settings from the Menu bar and u can see it in line level and make it ''YES'' and for that particular item Tax amount will be populated .hope this will help u
if u got the solution pls do close the thread........

WithHold Tax with Decimals

Hi,
Is it possible to calculate the Withold Tax with value in Decimal places? i.e., If the base amount is 11111 and the withold tax % is 3 then the WT amount is 333.33 wherein SAP calculates it as 333 only. We had recently implemented B1 in Thailand and the requirement is that, the withold tax should be calculated with exact decimals and not rounded off.
When I checked the Withold tax definition, there are only 2 options for rounding off, either to a lower amount or to a higher amount and there's no option to keep it as it is.
Anybody has any solution?
sriram

Hi Adele,
It has nothing to do with the decimal places.
In the withold tax configuration, there are 2 types of rounding off methods available
"commercial values" or "truncated AU" and you need to select any one of them. commercial values setting, makes it to the next higher numeric and truncated au rounds it off to a lower value.
There is a possibility that, at the time of carrying out the A/R or A/P transaction, the calculation can be done manually and we can enter the amount with decimals and SAP takes it as it is. But when calculates it on it's own, then it doesn't. That's why I wanted to know, whether anybody else is having this problem and whether they have any solution in place?

Error "10000180 Specify valid tax code" after upgrading 2007 to 8.8 PL15

Hi all,
In one client, I've upgraded the database from 2007 to 8.8 PL15.
When I try to add an Invoice or Sales order in 8.8, the system gives an immediate error "10000180 Specify valid tax code" and does not open the standard Invoice form to add a new document.
The same happens when I select other sales or purchase menu options.
I checked the tax definition (VAT table) and everything seems fine.
Does anybody know what can cause this error?
It must be related with 8.8 version, since in 2007 it worked fine...
Thanks all,
Manuel Dias

Hi Syed,
After some long checks, I've discovered the problem: after the upgrade, the VTG1 table had wrong value keys (01, 02, 03 and 04) against the OVTG table (which was 1,2,3 and 4).
I've done a manual update of this entries and then it worked.
Thanks anyway,
Manuel Dias
