Customer master data - taxes per country

[Former Member]

Hi,

When creating a customer, in the sales area data, tab 'billing documents', taxes are defined per country. Where can I found for which countries a tax category and thus a tax classification is mandatory? Is there in SPRO a table where you define that for the customer you need a tax classification for different countries?

Thanks in advance,

Ruth

Hello Ruth

It comes up from the Plants you set up in the config activity (Assign Delivering Plants For Tax Determination)-OX10 and/or in the enterprise structure definition.

If you see carefully, the country in the customer/Material master "Taxes' section is the Departure country (country from which the goods are sent). Goods will depart from your plants so counties for which plants are set up need to be set up with taxes in Customer as well as Material masters.

Hope this helps.

Further and actually it is the countries of the plants which are assigned to the Sales Org + Distribution channel derived from the Sales area being maintained for the customer master. It works similarly for material master too. You maintain this with IMG T code OVX6- Menu Path = SPRO/IMG/Enterprise Structure/Assignment/Sales and Distribution/Assign sales organization - distribution channel - plant

So check your table TVKWZ (Org.Unit: Allowed Plants per Sales Organization) which is the table for OVX6 data. Now pick a Sales org and Dist. Channel combination. See the plans assigned to the combination and get their countries from T001W. Now if you maintain a customer for a sales are containing this combo, then taxes needed to be maintained for those countries. Of course Taxes and Licenses have to be set as required fields for the account group in OVT0.

Hope I am clear.

In OVK1 - you define the tax category and code per country

in OBD2 - you maintain the field setting per Account Group, whether the particular field is optional , suppresed , mandatory....

What you ask per country specific, I am not sure if possible. May be at the order level you can control this. either you can have an incompletion procedure or enhance the sales order uesr exit .
