Plant abroads invoices - Tax determination.

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am facing an tax related issue with Plant abroads.

When moving products from a plant in the Netherlands to Poland, we use a stock transport order (Purchase order type UB). This results in a outbound delivery and consequently in an 'plant abroads invoice' with vat postings in the departure country (the Netherlands) and destination country (Poland) - a clone of the SAP standard procedure RVWIA1. For some products, the tax classification in the material master is different in the Netherlands and in Poland.

Example for medical equipment it is standard rated in the Netherlands and it is medium rated in Poland. To determine the tax classification in the invoice, the tax classification code is picked up for the departure plant country

for both postings (in departure country and destination country).

For the posting for the destination country the tax classification of the material in Poland should be picked up.

Any ideas to get this working ?

Appreciate your help and suggestions.

Hello Marcel,

in the standard the tax classification is always determined from the departure country.

There is not setting to change this.

So you can only do a modification, or change manually the tax classification in the sales document.

Best regards,

Ivano.
