Creating tax information

This tax information determines whether taxes apply to the items or services on the detail line, and how the system calculates the taxes.

Getting ready

You should set up the UDC 00/EX in order to set up the Tax Information.

How to do it...

  1. On the Purchase Order Detail revision (P4310), enter a taxable code that indicates whether the item is subject to sales tax when you purchase it. The system calculates tax on the item only if the supplier is also taxable.
  2. Enter Expl Code from the hard-coded UDC 00/EX that controls the algorithm that the system uses to calculate tax and general ledger distribution amounts. The system uses the tax explanation code in conjunction with the tax rate area and tax rules to determine how the tax is calculated. Each transaction pay item can be defined with a different tax explanation code.
  3. Enter a code that identifies a tax or geographic area that has common tax rates and tax authorities. The system validates the code that you enter against the F4008 table. The system uses the tax rate area in conjunction with the tax explanation code and tax rules to calculate tax and general ledger distribution amounts when you create an invoice or voucher.

How it works...

When you enter tax information into the Purchase Order detail, the system retrieves the default tax information for each detail line based on the tax information that you entered for the order. If tax information for the detail line differs from that of the rest of the order, you can change the tax information to accommodate the detail line. If you are using the Vertex Sales Tax Q Series system in conjunction with EnterpriseOne software, the system retrieves the default GeoCodes in order to determine the tax rate to apply to the order.

Note

The taxation set-up is optional and is based on the country's taxation laws. It varies from country to country, and even from state in then U.S. to state. Each country/state has its own taxation law.
