Determination of Customer VAT Reg No.

Former Member

Hi All,

Our client has established a central entity based in Germany, that sells and ships to customers as well as their own subsidiaries in multiple EU countries. Their requirement is to design a solution on SAP to ensure the correct customer VAT registration number is determined on the customer invoice in ALL scenarios. In the majority of cases, the VAT Reg number of the Sold-To-Party is the correct number to use. However, in some scenarios, applying the Sold-To-Party number would be incorrect.

We are aware that the standard IMG settings of A, B or 'Blank' are available via the menu SD -> Basic Functions ->Taxes ->Maintain Sales Tax Identification Number Determination. The client is currently using a setting of 'Blank' and considering changing this setting to 'B' to meet the majority of scenarios and/or introducing bespoke code to meet the exceptional scenarios given above.

If you have any experience with the above issue, we would be most grateful for your response.
