 Ship-To Party

Use

You use the address data of the ship-to-party to uniquely identify deliveries in the Excise Duty component. The system uses the address data of the ship-to-party to determine whether a shipment is bound for a domestic destination, for another EU country, or for a non-EU country.

You have to configure additional ship-to-parties for a customer if the customer is supplied in several tax warehouses or in tax warehouses and warehouses for goods in free circulation.

When the term Customer is used in the Excise Duty component, it always refers to the ship-to-party. You have to maintain all master data for the ship-to-party (address data, special partner type, and tax warehouse).

Activities

You can create ED-specific master data for two kinds of ship-to parties:

General master data for ship-to parties

EU special cases for ship-to parties

As part of the general ED master data, enter all ship-to parties that are supplied as owners of tax warehouses under tax suspension or that are special partner types.

You can only create or change entries for tax types that you are authorized to maintain.

If you do not enter any data in the Company Code and Excise Duty Type fields, the system uses the ED master data for the ship-to parties for all configured company codes and excise duty types.

The Export. 3rdCtry indicator (third country) specifies whether the system should treat the outbound goods as a delivery to a non-EU country for tax purposes

You can enter the country of origin of the ship-to party who was supplied from the tax warehouse in the Country Description field.

You can use the EU special cases to enter EU customers that the European Union (EU) considers as special tax cases. The European Union differentiates between the following special tax cases:

A delivery from an EU member country to an EU customer (ship-to-party) outside the EU tax territory (such as Gran Canaria) takes place under tax suspension, as is the case for exports to a third country.

The country of origin of an EU customer (ship-to-party) is considered as a domestic country by one or two EU member countries. A delivery from an EU member country to an EU customer (ship-to-party) is taxed (such as deliveries to places in Kleinwalsertal).
