VAT number of positions problem

Hi experts,
We have a VAT no. problem.
The country Belgium has changed the length of their VAT-no. from 9 to 10 positions.
When we try to post a manual invoice in FI, an error message indicates that the length should be 9 positions.
We then tried to post an invoice with the old 9-position VAT no., only to receive different error message that the VAT no includes not allowed signs.
Where is the correct place to configure this?
BR,
Niclas

Hello Niclas,
You define the length of a VAT registration number in the 'Country specific checks':
IMG -> General settings -> Set countries -> Set country specific checks.
For Belgium, the length of VAT registration number should be 12 (BE+10 numbers).
In this IMG activity you can also specify to activate 'Further checks'. When you mark the 'Other data', the VAT registration number for Belgium is checked using a routine. See additional information in the F1 help of this indicator.
Hope this helps to solve your problem.
Regards,
Mark

  • Branch VAT number in BSEG

    Hi All,
    The client is running EC sales report(S_ALR_87012400). And that report does not give the Branch customer VAT number updated documents(Credit memos) list .As BSEG table updates only main customer(Head Offfice customer )VAT number.
    The issue is the report does not pick up the VAT number from Branch customer master where the main customer(Head Office customer) master is blank in VAT number filed.
    The report picks up only when BSEG is updated with VAT number,and in this case the BSEG takes the VAT number from main customer master(KNA1) but not the branch customer master.
    We found if any user exit exsists so as to include the code,but no user exit as such for this report.
    Now the user wants all such documents (credit memosDG Document Type) to be listed with the branch VAT number in the report.
    Please kindly help me if anyone has a way out for this issue.
    early repsonse is highly appreciated and points will be assigned accordingly.
    Thanks
    Blessy.

    Hi All,
    I'm facing the same problem, kindly let me know how do I get the Vendor's VAT registration number while posting invoice. As every time when I'm trying to post vendor invoice the system ask for the customer number and the Reporting country and pick up the VAT reg. no. from the customer master base and not from the vendor master base.

  • BP VAT Number

    Hi All,
    Let's say we have a Supplier who is based in Finland but the company is a UK company - so their VAT Number is starting with 'GB' instead of 'FI'.
    So every time we create a Purchasing document, a warning message appears: 'The first two digits [GB] do not match the bill-to country code [FI]'.
    Is there a way to avoid this message?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Myran,
    Hope you are well. Thanks for your answer!
    The problem is that this is a Finnish legal entity which has got a Finnish VAT Number as normal but also has a GB VAT number because they do so much business with the UK - so they use this VAT number for all UK businesses.
    I can think of a workaround where the GB VAT No. is stored in field Unified VAT Number on General tab and the FI VAT No. is stored in the VAT Number field in Header.
    In this case the warning message will not be triggered but we can store both the VAT Numbers. If there are layouts displaying the VAT No., only this one field should be changed, and can be assigned to this one BP only.
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Nat

  • Switzerland VAT number in FPP2 and FD03

    Hello All,
    Our client wants to enter Swiss VAT numbers in Fpp2 (BP), which inturn reflects in FD03(Customer).
    I have followed the below steps for enabling it
    Created a tax type 'CH1' using BUPA_TAXNUMTYPE
    Maintained data in V_TFKTAXNUMTYPE.
    Maintained the checking rules via SPRO
    Now client is able to enter the Swiss vat number.
    But the problem is the VAT number entered in 'Identification' tab of FPP2 appears in field 'Tax Number 1(KNA1-STCD1)' (Control Tab) of FD03.
    The VAT number should appear in the VAT registration field (KNA1-STCEG) of FD03. For other countries it works fine, I have also searched through SAP notes but was not able to find anything for this scenario.
    Can you please help me resolve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Sharin

    Hi Sharin.
    Please check the note 1382602. This is what it says: "Field STCEG for VAT registration number is meant only for countries belonging to European Union. Since Switzerland is not an EU country, the VAT registartion number should be stored in the field KNA1-stcd1. This would in turn get mapped to tax type CH1 on bp."
    Additionaly, you could also check note 1174308.
    Hope it helps.

  • SEPA: VAT Number in xml-File instead of Creditor ID

    Hello, together,
    I got a problem concerning the xml-File for SEPA Direct Debit. In that xml-file there has to be included the SEPA Creditor ID (Company Details > Accounting Data > SEPA Creditor ID) under the section 'CdtrSchemeId' > 'Id' > 'PrvId' > 'Othr' > 'Id'
    But instead of the Creditor ID there is the VAT Number in the file. I can´t find any information about that problem. More than that I´m confused that no one else got that problem, too...
    My customer uses Business One 9.0 / PL 9 Hotfix 1. I tested it on PL 10 HF 1, but it still does not work as expected. We use File-Format SAPSEPASTANDARD_DD_008.02.02 (Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise, SAP 32-bit-Application).
    I do hope that someone can help me!
    Thank you very much in advance.

  • Vat number compulsary for adding BPs?

    Hello experts,
    I realized that for companies in Mexico and Chile the Vat number is compulsory to add a BP. But in the US localization is not compulsary as it lets you add it without a problem.
    Is it something you can activate or desactive or does it depends on the localization of the software?
    Looking forward to your reply,
    Kind regards

    Dear,
    It depends on localization of software.
    Thanks,

    Hi, ADaniels99,
    I recommend contacting the Skype Manager customer service unit; you can click on the link within your Skype Manager dashboard, or contact Skype Customer Service via the usual route, choosing Skype Manager as you work your way through the various steps.
    Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    As you know you intend to contact Customer Service, skip past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip past in Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started.

  • To make  the Billing document header  updated with the new VAT number.

    Hi Experts
    Due the business requirement we change the VAT number of  customers  for the European countries.
    And now how can we ensure that the Billing document header gets updated with the new VAT Reg.Number for the existing Billing documents.
    The intention is to ensure that when we Print an already existing invoice,the new changed VAT number should appear in the invoice output.
    Please suggest.
    Montee

    Hi,
       Have these documents been released to accounting? If yes then you have top canecl all the documents to update the billing documents and repost them with the new vat number. I think you might know how VAT gets determined in SAP. If not please go to SPRO-IMG-SD-BF-TAXES-MAINTAIN SALES TAX IDENTIFICATION UMBER DETERMINATION.
      1.  If the payer has a VAT ID number and RG <> AG, then the tax number
          and tax classification are copied from the payer (in this case, the
          ship-to party is not relevant).
          The tax number is taken according to the 'tax country of
          destination'.
      2.  If 1. does not apply:
          If the ship-to party has a VAT registration number and the sold-to
          party does not, tax number and tax classification are copied from
          the ship-to party.
      3.  If 2. does not apply:
          Tax number and tax classification are copied from the sold-to party.
      If you enter A, tax number and tax classification are generally copied
      from the sold-to party.
      The tax number is copied according to the 'country of destination
      relevant for taxes'.
      If you enter B, tax number and tax classification are generally copied
      from the payer.
      The tax number is copied according to the 'country of destination
      relevant for taxes'.
    Kindly please let me know If you need any more information on this.
    Regards
