Setting Up CFOP Determination in
SD
To enable automatic nota fiscal creation, the system needs to determine the CFOP code during the sales process in Sales and Distribution (SD). The system accesses the information mentioned below to determine the CFOP code in either the sales order or the delivery, and it then transfers it to the billing document and subsequently the nota fiscal. If the system is unable to determine a code using the CFOP determination table, you must enter one manually in the sales order or delivery.
Work through the Customizing activities under Cross-Application Components ® General Application Functions ® Nota Fiscal ® CFOP Codes.
You also need to assign the nota fiscal item type to the item category and sales order type, in Customizing for Sales and Distribution (SD), under Billing ® Billing Documents ® Country-Specific Features ® Country-Specific Features for Brazil ® Maintain Sales Document Item Category.
If a customer performs certain types of operation – for instance, it is an electric company or an agricultural customer – you must enter a customer CFOP category in the customer master record, under General Data on the Control Data tab. The system uses this information to determine the correct CFOP code.
