Change of VAT Registration Number Length for country Swiss

[Former Member]

Hi,

Requirement - in XD02, customer VAT registration number should allow for say CH6 chars and CHE9 chars but for country CH, length was maintained to 8 so, it will allow only one combination but business requires both.

I did some research on the web, and found this information on the VAT registration number change for Switzerland.

http://codingthis.com/applications/microsoft-dynamics/new-vat-registration-number-in-switzerland/

Based on the article, it seems that Switzerland is adopting different formats depending on where the business is within the country and the adoption will be phased in over the next two years.

I checked on SAP OSS for any notes regarding how to handle the change and did not find anything.

Can any one suggest how to fix this.

Thanks,

Hi Friend,

    Try to create a Z-Field in Company Global Data and maintained over there and ask abaper to fetch

    that data as per your requirement. T-Code for this will be OBY6

    To Add the Z-Field follow the process :

1. Go to T-Code : SE16 and Put the Table : "T001I".
2. After entering the table name, Press #F5 button.
3. Under parameter field you can put the Name for the VAT Registration Number as per required.

    Hope this will help you.

1) Note 1270213 - Switzerland: Tax amt in CHF automatically w/ own exch rate

2) Note 1502846 - KONS/KON6: VAT registration number in the European Union (2)
