You use this program to:

• Prepare withholding tax reports
• Prepare withholding tax returns (either on paper or as a DME file)
• Print withholding tax certificates for vendors or customers

You can use the program irrespective of whether you use Classic Withholding Tax or Extended Withholding Tax.

Before you execute the report, you must make the Customizing settings in Customizing for Financial Accounting, by choosing Financial Accounting Global Settings ® Withholding Tax or Extended Withholding Tax ® Generic Withholding Tax Reporting.

The program creates all printouts using Smart Forms.

Where withholding tax certificates are concerned, it produces one certificate per vendor, for all of the tax that you have withheld, and it records in each withholding tax item which certificate it was included in, for future reference. If you want, it also numbers the certificates for you.

The program creates all DME files using the DME format from the DME Engine. The system saves the file on your PC, under the name and path you specify on the selection screen.
