Hello Friends,

We have a requirement for the tax code determination - There are two way determination of tax code in sales order

-> From the tax condtion records

-> From manual input of tax code in the sales order

Could you please advice on how we can insert manually the tax code since the standard SAP not supports the requirement. For your information, business case not supports to maintain condition recors for those tax codes to insert manually.

Please advice

Best Regards,

Hi,

During sales order creation, the tax classification from the customer master is proposed in the sales order document.

In condition record, you maintain the tax code for this tax classification along with some other field combinations. Accordingly, teh percentage linked to the tax code will be decided as teh % of tax for the customer. This is the logic.

If you want to change the tax code in the sales order, it is not possible. However if you really want to change it, you can achieve it by changing the tax classification of the customer in the sales order header. This is available in the billing tab of order header. The field is "Alternate tax classification". You can change the desired tax classification here. Correspondingly by linking the tax code to this tax classification in VK11, you should be able to change the applicable tax code in the sales order.

In summary, you should change the tax classification in order to change the tax code which is linked to it.

tbe best way is to use creating condition record with the combination of TAX CODE and make it to appear automatically in the sales order.

hope this clears your issue.

Hello Friends,

We are doing the european implementation, this requirement is specific to european companies and doesnt want to maintain condition records since the tax code is suggested and coming from the customer. It will be decided at the time of sales order.

Kindly suggest the solution to fulfill the requirement.

hi,

this is to inform you that,

here at sales order level there is no TAX CODE at all in header level or item level or over view screen of the sales order.

SAP has not provided that functionality of tax code in sales order.

work around is:

you need to change the tax code which is applicable to that respective sales order in VK12 and create a sales order and try it.

or else check if there is any work around on tax classifications in billing tab page because you can change in at transaction level.

please check and confirm

For information, you cannot directly key in the tax code in sale order. It flows only based on the combination what you maintained in VK11 for tax condition type UTXJ or MWST.

Since in your case you want to change manually the tax code, have a different tax code in VK11 by differentiating for material. Now in sale order at item level, go to Billing tab and change the tax classification by which, a different tax code will be changed in the sale order.

thanks
