VAT configuration in SAP R/3 4.0

[Former Member]

May I know if the steps for sales tax determination configuration can be used to configure VAT in in SAP R/3 4.0 as well. Is there any extra configuration steps that are involved.

Thanks!~

Just copy the standard pricing procedure and ensure that in V/07, for MWST, you maintain table 368 so that based on this combination, tax code is assigned for VAT.

HI,

I can't seemed to find table 368 in the condition table in SAP R/3 4.0. Can you tell me what is the combination so that I can look for it if it is there.

Thanks!

The combination would be

=> Origin Country

=> Delivering Plant Region

=> Ship To Party Region

=> Tax Classification Customer

=> Tax Classification Material

thanks

hi,

i dont see any difference from configuration perspective.

VAT is also sales tax, for local sales.

please go a head with the standard configuration part.

i.e with ur pricing procedure and revenue account determination.

Hi,

In my view you can use the same steps that are used for your sales tax.

Because VAT is also one type of Tax only.So I think these steps are enough.

Does that mean I can use the condition type MWST?

Thanks!

Hi Lee,

Yes, you can use the condition type MWST.

Only the name differs here.You can change the description to VAT also.

All the configuration regarding taxes will be done in SPRO.The path is:

SPRO>Sales and Distribution>Basic functions-->Taxes.

Make sure that your customer is liable for taxes.Maintain material tax class also except "0".

Krishna.
