Hi,

If I understood the query correctly, you are using Extended Classic scenario and wants to know the tax code setup in SRM.

Tax Codes can't be replicated automatically. The following customization is required to be maintained.

• IMG activity Supplier Relationship Management--->SRM Server--->Cross Application Basic setting--->Tax Calculation---->Enter Tax Code.

In order to have defaulted tax codes in purchasing documents like SC & PO you need to maintain the

• IMG activity Supplier Relationship Management--->SRM Server--->Cross Application            Basic setting-->Tax Calculation---->Determine Tax Code for Country/Product Category

• IMG activity Supplier Relationship Management--->SRM Server--->Cross Application Basic setting--->Tax Calculation---->Assign Enterprise Buyer tax code to FI system

Hope that helps.

Hi Snehal,

Thanks for your reply. I did the required configuration as above mentioned.

am getting one issue here is that when I enter country, product and tax code details in Determine Tax Code for Country/Product Category, and try to enter tax code in SC , it disappears automatically .

If all the entries are removed from this table(Determine Tax Code for Country/Product Category), then it is working fine and tax is calculated in SC while select the tax code and tax code does not disappear automatically.

can you suggest what may be the issue.

am using back end system for tax calculation.

Thanks

Hi Ravi,

You can check the note 741822 for tax related problem.

And also suggest please check your customization settings as mentioned below.

If you want tax calculation should happend in ERP  SAP back-end system (tax calculation takes place in the financial accounting system)

If you already have an SAP back-end financial accounting system, SAP recommend that you use the existing tax calculation provided by the back-end system. You do not need to make any additional Customizing settings for tax calculation.

Prerequisites :

Settings for tax calculation :

Define the system for tax calculation -Cross-Application Basic Settings>Tax CalculationDetermine System for Tax Calculation

Define the allowed invoice verification tolerances for the variances between calculated tax amounts and tax amounts entered manually (optional).-Cross-Application Basic Settings>Set Tolerance Checks

Define whether taxes for the total freight costs (that is, for all company codes) are to be calculated with a separate tax code (optional)-Cross-Application Basic Settings>Tax CalculationDefine Tax Calculation for Freight Costs

Define whether taxes for freight costs for specific company codes are to be calculated with a separate tax code (optional)-Business Add-InsTax CalculationCalculate Tax for Freight Costs

Procedure :

Tax Calculation in the SAP Back-End Financial Accounting System

If you choose to calculate tax in the SAP back-end system, tax calculation takes place in the respective financial accounting system (depending on the attribute of the user System Alias for Financial Accounting Systems in the organization model). The SAP back-end system has to be defined as a financial accounting system.

The system determines the tax code from the entries in the tables and fields: for example, from the product category, country of goods recipient, or the domestic/international indicator.

If the tax indicators in SAP SRM do not match the tax indicator in the financial accounting system, you can map them to the tax indicators of the financial accounting system.

Settings :

Maintain tax codes - Cross-Application Basic SettingsTax CalculationEnter Tax Code

Map tax codes that have different names in the FI system and in SAP SRM to each other- Cross-Application Basic Settings>Tax CalculationAssign Enterprise Buyer Tax Code to FI System

Use individual tax code determination- Business Add-Ins > Tax CalculationDetermine Tax Code

You can change or supplement the data used to calculate tax -Business Add-Ins>Tax CalculationChange Tax Data

You can specify a tax code for country and product category (optional) - Cross-Application Basic Settings>Tax CalculationDetermine.

Tax Calculation in the SAP ERP Financial Accounting System :

Tax calculation takes place in the respective SAP ERP financial accounting system, depending on the posting of the document. As prerequisite, you must specify this logical system in the user attribute ACS (System Alias for Accounting System) in transaction PPOMA_BBP.

The system determines the tax code from the entries in the tables and fields, for example, from the product category, country of goods recipient, or the domestic/international indicator.

If the tax indicators in SAP SRM do not match the tax indicator in the financial accounting system, you can map them to the tax indicators of the financial accounting system.

Hi Ravi,

If i understood your issue correctly, You have defined settings for Tax code determination based on Country / Product Category and when you try to create SC it picks up your default tax code based on configuration but you are not able to change to any other tax code as tax code field become blanks. Could you please share your screen shots if possible. Also please provide details of your SRM system which version and which SP.

Thank you

Thank you
