Define Tax
Determination Rules
In this menu option, you define the rules for
tax calculation.
The SAP System determines the taxes
automatically within pricing.
Proceed as follows:
- You have to define a condition type for each
tax type (for example, taxes on sales and purchases, output tax).
- You have to define access sequences and
condition tables for this
condition type.
- You have to include the tax condition type in
the
pricing procedures in which the taxes should be taken into
account.
- For the tax conditions, you have to create
condition records in which the respective tax record is stored.
Default
settings
In the standard SAP R/3 System, the elements of
tax calculation are predefined (for example, tax condition type "MWST" for
taxes on sales and purchases).
Actions
1. Check to
what extent you can use the defaults contained in the standard SAP R/3
System.
2. Define the
condition types for tax calculation. Define the access sequences and check the
condition tables. Include the tax condition types in the pricing procedures
involved.
You carry out these actions in the step for pricing control.
"Pricing
control".
3. Specify the
valid tax types, that is, the tax condition types for every country. If more
than one tax type can be defined for a country, you define the sequence of
their use here.
