Municipal Tax on Services (ISS)
Definition
See
ISS (in Portuguese, Imposto sobre Serviços). The average rate is 5%.Use
The system determines the ISS tax rate by the city of the supplier (vendor) and the type of service. ISS amounts, required for nota fiscal reporting, are included in the price of services.
Construction companies represent an exception to the rule when calculating ISS: they use the ISS rate of the city where they render services, and not the city in which their company is based. The system does not currently cover this exception for construction companies.
Integration
ISS is charged only to the suppliers of services. This means that ISS is only calculated when you post a sales order in Sales and Distribution (SD), and not when you post a purchase order in Materials Management (MM).
In SD, when you enter a sales order, the system derives the ISS rate from the following information:
The SD pricing procedure checks the SD tax code: If the Calculate ISS indicator is set, the system calculates ISS. You specify the SD tax code in the sales order on line-item level.
The system searches for the appropriate ISS rate as explained here.
