Hi

For the accounting determination, you must do it with tcode OB40. In this transaction, set in rules

and populate the G/L account, depending of tax code. Determine other tax code depending your scenario.

For further information, see these notes

SAP Note 117983 - Change of tax on sales/purchases (w/o tax jur.code)

SAP Note 872449 - Tax determination in Sales and Distribution

SAP Note 392696 - R/3 Tax Interface Configuration Guide

For note 392696, see the attachment.

I hope this helps you

Hi,

In India, if returns are after 6 months, sales tax may not be returned to customer.

Further, are you using batch management? How are you tracking goods expiry currently?

You are right ,But requirement to post it to Sales tax burn account. and yes it is batch management and at the time of return order we are using user exit to read batch expiry details.

TKG, then you can use a different pricing procedure specifically for returns and assign new accrual keys to condition types so that figures can be passed to required G/L accounts.

OR If you are using same pricing procedu re, then include different condition types for returns with item category as one of the keys in access and different accrual keys as mentioned above. You can have an access item category/batch number for return price & item category/batch number/ tax class cust/tax class mat etc. for return tax conditions.
