Maintaining Tax Code Properties

Use

You maintain tax code properties during the creation of tax codes in order to define it as input/ output tax, sales/use tax, and so on.

Procedure

  1. In Customizing for Financial Accounting, choose Financial Accounting Global Settings ® Tax on Sales/Purchases ® Calculation ® Define Tax Codes for Sales and Purchases. You can also use transaction FTXP.
  2. When creating a new tax code condition record, a pop-up window is displayed after a country is specified. In this pop-up window, you maintain tax code properties. These properties are stored in T007A under the key fields tax calculation procedure (KALSM) and tax code (MWSKZ).

Do not use transaction SM31 (update) to maintainT007A because links to other tables will not be properly maintained. SM31 may only be used to view table T007A.

Table T007A stores the allowable combination of tax procedure with tax code and tax type. This table is checked when condition records for tax codes are created. The properties define each tax code and must be maintained.

You maintain the following properties:
