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

[Former Member]

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.

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.
