Nota Fiscal Type

Definition

A classification of a nota fiscal that describes the business process, for instance, nota fiscal incoming.

Use

Each nota fiscal must be assigned a nota fiscal type. In Sales and Distribution (SD), the system determines the nota fiscal type automatically; however, you must enter it manually in Logistics Invoice Verification and in the Nota Fiscal Writer. The nota fiscal type is used to determine important attributes of a nota fiscal.
