Hi ,
you can proceed in the following way
1) You would need to configure the tax procedure for USA copy TAXUS ( OBQ3)
2) have UTXJ condition in that
3) create the tax codes for the different scenarios FTXP
4) also modify your pricing procedure if it does not have the UTXJ condition type ( V/08)
5) Maintain the condition records to determine the releavant tax code vk11
6) Run the cycle & check whether the applicable tax rates get picked up
hope this helps
Thanks

How difficult is it to implement indirect sales tax for India?

Dear All,
What is the level of difficulty to implement indirect sales taxes for India? Is this a low, medium, or high level of difficulty implementation?
Does India offer a nationalization package, and is it necessary to install India's nationalization?
Ultimately, I need to get an estimate for the number of people and days of work involved in order to determine the expected cost.
Kind regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,
The level of difficulty to implement indirect sales taxes for India is high level of difficulty implementation?
Country India Version is along with ECC. No need to implement any other package.
Depend on the requirement it takes 2-3 months of implementation for CIN. And Two consultants are required to configure this implementation. If A consultant has 2-3 years in the CIN Configuration then 1 Consultant is enough. Cost vary from organization to organization.

I have a new Samsung phone and I live in CT. Last month they charged me $38 on my bill for the sales tax for the new phone which was $600. I'm paying for the phone itself over 20 installments of $30 each. Now again I'm getting that same $38 charge. I can

I have a new Samsung phone and I live in CT. Last month they charged me $38 on my bill for the sales tax for the new phone which was $600. I'm paying for the phone itself over 20 installments of $30 each. Now again I'm getting that same $38 charge. I can't believe that the monthly CT tax is higher than the payment for the phone itself. Does this make sense. Last time I spoke with them on the phone it was for 1 1/4 hours for something simple. I don't want to call unless I need to. The salesman told me nothing about any of this. Thank you for any help you can offer.

The bill from last month states:
CT state sales tax** $38.10
** In some states sales tax or surcharges are calculated on the full cost of the full retail price or VZW cost of the device you purchased and not on the discounted price you pay. The sales tax or surcharges charged on your device was based on $599.99 and appears on this first bill.
The current bill says the same.
Actually, now I'm realizing that last month's bill stated I was making the first payment toward the phone. Now this month also says it's the first payment toward the phone when it's really the second.

How to setup USE Tax for USA

Hi guys
We recently got new scenario where we need to calculate USE Tax for interstate purchasing scenario. Basically the interstate vendor is tax exempt but we need to accrue and remit to government ourselves.
Just looking for some tips for the setup. I guess a new Tax Code is required but what about pricing procedure? (this tax is not added to PO total as we do not pay it to vendor.
We use TAXUSX procedure for USA.
Any help with experience is greatly appreciated.
AC

It is generally advised to use a external tax engine for calculation of US Use and Sales tax because tax is calculated based Ship to Ship from locations and if a product is taxable or not. Within US tax is caluclated for multiple levels like state, city, town and county. Only external tax systems can handle such complex split. If you have a very small business then you can also configure TAXUSJ tax procedure which is jurisdiction based. you need to assign the %age for every jurisdiction. I still say that use external tax engones like vertax, fabware or Sales tax office. External tax systems use TAXUSX tax procedure.

Setting Sales Tax for in State ONLY??

What we have here is a failure to communicate... Either it is a language problem with support or they can't explain the feature.
All the answers I 'm getting are NOT answers to the question I'm asking. And the document is not clear either.
I have clients who sell products who ONLY need to charge sales tax to customers in the same state (PA) but BC is charging 6% to all customers regardless of location. We realize now that we should not have set the tax on individual products to PA 6% (although that is VERY counterintuitive), and we set up our tax code for the USA with all states being zero and pa being 6%. Tech cannot tell me how I should be setting taxes globally for products. IT is almost as if this feature does not exist:
ME: No, This is not acceptable nor does it make any sense.
In the USA, for most companies, we only charge sales tax to In state customers, not out of state customers. Therefore we need to be able to set up a global tax NOT on the product and NOT on the Country, but upon the state ONLY.
If this option is not available, it is a worthless system.

There are two proper ways to add tax.
1. Add tax to shipping options: In this case, you create tax codes and shipping options too. Now, you add tax code to the shipping option as per the customer's destination country. Add a shipping option, and select the tax code in the shipping option. This is the more widely used method of applying tax. From what I had seen, you didn't create any shipping options yet, hence the confusion.
2. Add tax directly to the product: This is what you had done. This will, as you have already mentioned, apply the tax to the product, irrespective of the customer's address details.
Hope this clarifies the situation.
Cheers.
You can set it as not applicable. If you apply tax to the product level, it will apply the tax to all orders for that product. To apply tax to all orders regardless of the visitor's location, you can apply tax at a product level. Check this document:http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/tax-codes.html

Your question is really inappropriate to the Apple Discussions. The AD is a user-to-user forum for helping with technical problems and questions for Apple products. Sales taxes is certainly not one of those topics.
However, to answer your question. If your friend purchases a Mac in the Apple store or if you purchase it via the online store taxes will be charged. Sales taxes in the US are typically between 6-8 percent of the purchase cost depending upon the state in which it is purchased. There are a few states that do not levy sales taxes such as Nevada and Montana.
In addition when your friend takes the computer into your country you will likely be charged with import duties and taxes as well. If it's your expectation that this ploy will save you some money I wouldn't count on it.

Calculation of sales tax for free item

Dear SAP B1 Experts
I have query regarding sales tax calculation for free item .
For EG. I have two item for sales (A = 1000, B = 100)   Sales tax is VAT4%
But when i am doing sales, i am selling B for free of cost with A for Rs 1000/-
here my tax calculation is (1000 *4%) = 1040/-
but as per the govt sales tax rule, we are liable to pay the tax for free item as well
So I this case, In SAP B1 how we will calculate the tax 4% for free item .
Please help me.
Thanks

i have checked, its working okay, but
in Invoice print out unit price and line total is showing for free item. How i make the unite price 0 .
Tax only calculation is based on the Line total and the line total is based on the unit price.
in that case when i give the invoice to the customer.
It should show like this
Item A       100   * 10         1000
"    B           0   * 1              00
                                         1000
4% tax                               44
Doc Total             =           1044
thanks

Sales Tax for the new iMac

I'm sorry, I know this is probably not the right place to pose a question about sales tax, but I could not find the right category =/
If you think I should re-write this question in another category, I will
So, my situation is: I live in Brazil, and I have a friend who's going to the US in October. She is going to buy the new iMac for me.
I read on Apple's website that Sales Tax may apply. In which cases? If my friend goes to the retail store (instead of ordering it's shipment), does she has to pay this tax? how much is it normally? Does it depend on the State?
(And I only ask this because it's really not clear at apple.com and I don't know how sales tax work in the US...)
so thank you for your help!

Hi,
Experteese,
_My client is having 3 plants in a single state as per the sales tax of indian govt consolidated payment will be done at head office or any of one office. how to do this in SAP._

Hi
I dont see any problem in one plant paying the Sales Tax amount. Tax amount is posted to one GL account irrespective of the plant and if the Head office has got authorisation in SAP to view the postings of other business areas, then it will be able to post a journal entry debiting Sales Tax Payable account and crediting the Bank account.

Excise and sales tax for Free of charge delivery

Friends,
Kindly explain somebody whether Duty and taxes are leived during free of charge delivery. If it is levied then what is basis for calculating duty?
Plesse help on this.
Thanks in advance

Hi Pratap,
For free goods you have to pay excise duty, that is why i recommend you to follow a new pricing procedure, where the Price Condition type is statistical(to calculate excise) and give payer as self if the excise duty you would not get from customer,\
1.Create invoice and excise invoice.
2. If you don't want to to hit self(given in document header partner) create proforma and excise invoice
revert if you require any clarrification.

IPhone 4S Sales tax on out of state purchase? Time for a road trip?

In California (and I believe two other states, if not more) the sales tax on an iPhone is calculated on the "retail" price of the phone. This amounts to about $50-$60, much higher than the sales tax on the subsidized price of $199 for the 16gb model (about $20).
If I were to purchase the phone in another state from an AT&T/Verizon store, or one of their "authorized resellers" in person, would I pay the tax for the state I am purchasing the phone in, or would I have to pay California's higher tax on the unsubsidized "retail" price?
I realize that the online Apple Store charges tax based on the phone's shipping address.
Do the stores base the sales tax on where you are purchasing the phone (in person), or on the billing or service address (California, in my case)?
Anyone who has actually done this (an out of state purchase - in person, not on-line)? What was your sales tax amount?

No, this is not a first time phone. Have been with Verizon since 2000, and am happy so far. Need to get two phones to replace some dinosaurs that we have now.
Haven't decided on Verizon or AT&T yet. Verizon=Better coverage. AT&T=Lower plan rate. Will not even consider Sprint.
It's not a carrier issue. I'm just trying to save maybe $60 on sales tax for the two phones. (Yep - I'm a cheap old geezer!)
I will check on the different states and their sales tax policies on unsubsidized/subsidized phones.

Free Goods -Sales tax

Hi,
I am working on Free Goods determination.
The ultimate aim is to capture excise duty and sales tax for materials which is sold as free to customer.
I could able to capture excise duties,whereas it is not charged on customer.
I could able to sales tax,whereas it is t charged on customer.
Only problem i face is for item category TANN ,tax value should be zero (o) means at the time revenue account determination it should not post to customer account .How can i configure it.
I tried with various options but i could not make it.
I thought of generating report keeping in the mind that where ever the condition type R100 >0.01,system should find out the value for sales tax VAT /CST.
Based on that value credit note have to raised for customer.
Here in our case Rs 2.93/- should be issued as credit note.Is there any other alternative option available.
Thanks,
Pradeep M

We are using the below one.
IF komp-PSTYV = 'TANN' OR komp-PSTYV = 'RENN' .
     IF XKOMV-KSCHL = 'JIVP' OR XKOMV-KSCHL = 'ZCES' OR XKOMV-KSCHL = 'JIVC'.
       XKWERT = 0.
     ENDIF.
     IF XKOMV-KSCHL = 'ZBPF' OR XKOMV-KSCHL = 'R100'.
       XKOMV-KSTAT = 'X'.
     ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ZBPF is our basic price

Where to collect sales tax?

I'm setting up a new BC site, have the shopping cart, shipping, and payment gateways all configured. Now I'm trying to figure out the tax stuff. We will be selling physical products into all 50 states, so we need to collect sales tax for each state. I see the ECommerce : Tax Codes section, and have added all the US States. But how do I get this to calculate for my products?
I see that I can add a single state tax code to a single product, but I need each of our 56 products to be available in all 50 states, all of which have a different rate.
Second question: Where does the sales tax calculation show up, once it is working? In the shopping card, on the Checkout page, or where?

OK, I don't know what I was thinking. The problem is smaller than I originally posted. We need to collect tax for residents of MN, but not for residents of other states. I'm unclear how to do this. Does anyone have any tips? I can't seem to find a tutorial or help file anywhere about this.
