Use

When a billing clerk generates an invoice to be paid in cash, the system automatically rounds the total invoice amount to the nearest 50 haleru, and adjusts the prices of the line items accordingly. For more information about what method the system uses, see the example below.

Prerequisites

You have created a new pricing procedure as described in SAP Note 674921.

Example

A customer purchases two items from you, to be paid for in cash, as follows:

·        One item at CZK 1, plus CZK 0.05 VAT

·        A second item at CZK 1, plus CZK 0.22 VAT

The total invoice amount is thus CZK 2.27. The system rounds off the total to CZK 2.50 (the nearest 50 haleru) and splits the rounding difference between the line items as follows:

·        The first line item is rounded up to CZK 1.10, plus CZK 0.06 VAT.

·        The second is rounded up to CZK 1.10, plus CZK 0.24 VAT.

It posts all rounding differences to sales revenue and tax accounts. It does not post them to special rounding accounts.

Method

In order to adjust the individual line items to the new total, the system proceeds as follows:

...

       1.      The system calculates the difference between the old and new total:

       2.      It splits the difference proportionately between the items, according to their net price.

The net price of both items is the same, so the system divides this amount in two, rounding down as necessary:

Thus CZK 0.11 is to be added to each item.

That still leaves CZK 0.01 over from the rounding difference, however. This is added to the second item, because it has the largest gross amount. Thus the two line items are now worth, gross:

¡        CZK 1.00 (net price) + CZK 0.05 (VAT) + CZK 0.11 (rounding difference) = CZK 1.16

¡        CZK 1.00 (net price) + CZK 0.22 (VAT) + CZK 0.12 (rounding difference) = CZK 1.34

       3.      The system now calculates the new VAT amounts from the gross amounts by:

¡        Multiplying the first (reduced-rate VAT) item by a coefficient of 0.0476:

¡        Multiplying the second (full VAT) item by a coefficient of 0.1803:
