6.1. Define Tax condition type

BACKGROUND

Taxes as applicable in a country as per material and customer
can be configured using pricing condition types for the
relevant taxes.

Tax rates can be maintained by integration with FI. Departure
and destination can also be used in configuring taxes.

Specific requirements of local taxes with tax jurisdiction can
be mapped by allowing interface with external tax systems like
Vertex.

In this configuration, select tax classifications allowed per tax
condition type for material and customer taxes.

As taxes could be exempt for certain customers and materials
or could be charged with different rates depending upon the
classification of materials or customers as per tax laws, tax
classifications are maintained against a tax condition type.

used as a part of key combination.

Click on Customer taxes

So far, we have seen configuration for factors / criteria, which
could be used in determining G/L accounts.

7.3. Condition technique for account
determination

Now, understand use of condition technique to use these
factors

Steps:

1. Create condition tables by selecting fields from the field
catalog. These fields would be required to map the
criteria.

2. Create Access Sequence to add condition tables


3. Create Condition type to link the access sequence.
4. Create Procedure to include condition types, which would
be checked and processed during document processing

5. Assign procedure to the document type so that procedure
is used during processing of document.


Step 1

Click on Define dependencies of Revenue account
determination






Double click on Field catalog: Allowed fields for the tables

This will have the fields required as criteria for G/L account
determination.



Tables can be created using above fields. Each table can then
used in access sequence KOFI.

Let us see standard table, 1 used in access sequence KOFI

Double click on Account determination: Display tables


Click on



In table, 001, criteria set is seen in selected fields.




Step 2:
