Analyzing Datasets

The SAP System carries out this step .

The system analyzes the datasets of every company code for which you wish to convert withholding tax data in the current run. The system determines both the overall number and the number per withholding tax code of

Vendors
Open items

Cleared items
Parked documents

The system also checks the assignment of the classic withholding tax to the types and codes for extended withholding tax to see whether the characteristics of each combination of type and code for extended withholding tax correspond. If this is not the case, a warning is displayed in the log.

Procedure

When the analysis is complete, the Withholding Tax Data Conversion: Conversion Run Control screen appears.

Choose

Log.

A list is displayed containing the above-mentioned figures.

Check the list for possible discrepancies that could lead to later problems when making postings with extended withholding tax.

You can use the list to determine

whether documents with missing withholding tax codes have been posted.
If so, check whether the code has been deleted by mistake, thus requiring you to make the relevant system settings again, or whether you intentionally made the setting for "no" withholding tax code.
whether any withholding tax codes exist that are not used, and can therefore be deleted from the system
whether the system contains a large number of cleared documents, which would slow down the conversion run unnecessarily

Rectify any errors or discrepancies and restart the analysis.
