Changing Withholding Tax code in customer master

[Former Member]

Hi there,

Are we allowed to change existing withholding tax code in the customer master data?

e.g..from S3 to S6?

Any watch out?

hi

You Have 2 options ,

1) Either change S3 to S6

or

2) Untick 2 Liable check box for S3 and enter new Line for S6 . This will help you find the changes .

One more thing Please make sure that There is no Open Item for customer in FBL5N so that system does not recalculate the WHT for pending Item .

Hi Preeti,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Currently I have open items in the customer ledger. and I tried to clear one of the open item (clearing doc #: 1400000295) without any error. May I know what you mean by "system does not recalculate"? How to check on that please?

Best regards,

Shanti

HI ,

have you made the changes .

In vendor when you pay through F110 after changes the WHT system gives you error.

If system is allowing you the old WHT tax document without recalculating then its fine . I believe .

Hi Shanti,

Why you want to change the w.h.tax code in the customer master? Does it due to rate changes? If yes, then you can maintain the tax rates for the same w.h.tax code with validity date under formulas for calculating w.h.tax configuration.
