Order Processing in a VAT Environment

This chapter provides an overview of how value-added tax (VAT) is used with sales orders and discusses how to:

Set up the VAT environment.
Update and view sales order VAT information.

Understanding How VAT is Used with Sales Orders

VAT default data is used in sales orders where you can alter certain information.

Note. PeopleSoft Billing and PeopleSoft Order Management calculate and display VAT amounts.

This section discusses:

How to pass VAT information to PeopleSoft Billing.
How to invoice product kits in a VAT environment.
How to invoice products with VAT in a counter sale environment.

Passing VAT Information to PeopleSoft Billing

You use Process VAT Defaults (BIPVATOO) VAT to insert information for sales orders into the billing interface tables. The Billing Interface process (BIIF0001) inserts the data into the billing tables for invoicing. VAT amounts are calculated in PeopleSoft Billing.

The following table lists the order levels and fields in PeopleSoft Order Management and the corresponding tables and fields in PeopleSoft Billing.

You can run the Process VAT Defaults and Billing Interface processes individually or as part of the OM Invoicing (OM_IVC) multiprocess job.

Note. The fields are delivered as implicit Bill By fields on the Bill By Identifier page and are not available from the available options: Ship from Country, Ship to Country, Seller's Registration Country, Buyer's Registration Country, and VAT Treatment Group.

Note. When you are consolidating orders or shipments onto a single bill, these VAT-related fields must be identical: Ship from Country, Ship to Country, Seller's Registration Country, Buyer's Registration Country, Vat Treatment Group, Calculate at Gross or Net, VAT Declaration Point, VAT Declaration Date Source, VAT Exception Certificate, VAT Exception Type, VAT Recalculate at Payment, Buyer's VAT Registration ID, Seller's VAT Registration ID, VAT Round Rule, and VAT Declaration Date.

Note. When you specify a VAT declaration point, the system sets the VAT Declaration Date Source and VAT Declaration fields automatically.

Note. * For product kits, VAT fields are determined based on the components that make up the kit if you assign VAT percentages to the components.

Invoice Product Kits in a VAT Environment

For VAT, the schedules are grouped by VAT code, and the tax is calculated and prorated to the schedules. If the customer wants the items shipped to their address instead of picking up the items, the Customer Service Representative (CSR) must add an order line for the freight product ID in order to calculate VAT on the freight. Otherwise, the system does not calculate VAT of the sales order freight amount.

PeopleSoft Order Management typically estimates taxes, which are recalculated in PeopleSoft Billing. In the counter sale environment, taxes are not recalculated in PeopleSoft Billing when the transaction is paid up front or paid fully by a deposit. Taxes are calculated in PeopleSoft Order Management at the tax authority level. Similarly, third-party tax calculations and freight tax are also stored at the tax authority level.

For counter sale customers, typically if the customer wants the items shipped to their address instead of picking up the items, the system calculates the VAT of the sales order freight automatically. However, the CSR can also add an order line for the freight product ID in order to pass additional freight charges on to the customer.

For product kits, VAT defaults are determined based on the product kit (parent) level on the sales order. VAT amounts are calculated at the parent kit level. These orders are not exploded into separate components if the order has been paid for up front. If you do not enter the VAT percentages for a kit, the Populate Billing process passes the parent product ID for the kit to PeopleSoft Billing and uses as defaults the current values for VAT applicability, VAT transaction type, and VAT code that are stored on the order schedule.

For example, product kit 670001 is priced at 1000 EUR. You elect to apply the VAT percentages. Each component represents an individual bill line:

Components	Quantity	VAT %	Price Each
10001	1	50	500 EUR
30010	2	30	150 EUR
50001	1	20	200 EUR
90001	1	0	0 EUR

If you do not elect to apply VAT percentages, Populate Billing passes product ID 67001 and the price of 1000 EUR to PeopleSoft Billing as a single bill line.

Invoice Products with VAT in a Counter Sale Environment

PeopleSoft Order Management typically estimates taxes, which are recalculated in PeopleSoft Billing. In the counter sale environment, taxes are not recalculated in PeopleSoft Billing when the transaction is paid up front or paid fully by a deposit. However, Billing always recalculates taxes for partially paid invoices and fully paid invoices if a third-party tax package is being used. Taxes are calculated in PeopleSoft Order Management at the tax authority level. Similarly, third-party tax calculations and freight tax are also stored at the tax authority level.

For VAT, the schedules are grouped by VAT code, and the tax is calculated and prorated to the schedules.

For product kits, VAT defaults are determined based on the product kit (parent) level on the sales order. VAT amounts are calculated at the parent kit level. These orders will not be exploded into separate components if the order has been paid for up front.

For counter sale customers who typically want the items shipped to their address instead of picking up the items; the system calculates the VAT of the sales order freight automatically. However. the CSR can also add an order line for the freight product ID in order to pass additional freight charges on to the customer.

Setting Up the VAT Environment

This section discusses how to:

Link Order Management or Inventory business units to a VAT entity.
Set up VAT defaults.

Linking Order Management or Inventory Business Units to a VAT Entity

In PeopleSoft Order Management, you can invoice by Order Management business unit or by Inventory business unit. In a VAT environment, the Order Management or Inventory business unit by which you choose to bill must be linked to a VAT entity that is associated with a Billing business unit that is, in turn, linked to a General Ledger business unit.

If you are billing by Order Management business unit, the billing business unit on the Order Management Definition - Order Management Setup page is used.
If you are billing by Inventory business unit, the billing unit that is on the Inventory Definition - Business Unit Definition page is used.

Note. The only VAT processing that PeopleSoft Inventory performs is for Order Management sales orders.

The system determines the VAT entity for sales order in the following way: The Billing business unit that is associated with the Inventory business unit takes precedence over the Billing business unit that is associated with the Order Management business unit if both business units have the Billing business unit assigned. The Billing business unit assigned determines where the VAT entity is derived from. See the following table:

Order Management Billing Business Unit/VAT Entity Setup	Inventory Billing Business Unit/VAT Entity Setup	Billing Business Unit used to determine VAT Entity	VAT Entity Assigned
Yes/No	No/No	Order Management Billing business unit.	No
Yes/Yes	No/No	Order Management Billing business unit.	Yes
Yes/Yes	Yes/No	Inventory Billing business unit.	No
Yes/Yes	Yes/Yes	Inventory Billing business unit.	Yes
No/No	Yes/Yes	Inventory Billing business unit.	Yes
No/No	Yes/No	Inventory Billing business unit.	No

Note. The Inventory business unit that is determined at the header level uses the Priority 1 Inventory business unit in the customer's distribution network. If no distribution network is assigned at the customer level, the system takes the Inventory business unit from either the Order Management distribution network priority 1 Inventory business unit or the Default Inventory business unit that is established on the Order Management business unit Shipping and Receiving page.

Setting Up VAT Defaults

Two main components control VAT defaults: the VAT Defaults Setup component and the Services VAT Treatment Defaults Setup component. You can access these components from the common VAT menu (Set Up Financials/Supply Chain, Common Definition, VAT and Intrastat, Value Added Taxes) or from the Order Management Business Unit definition, product definition, or customer pages. If you access these components from the VAT menu, the driver that you select determines the fields that appear. If you access either of these components from the application pages, the component from which you are accessing it determines the fields that appear.

This table lists the VAT drivers and associated VAT driver keys in VAT default hierarchy sequence from most specific to least specific for the VAT Defaults component that are used with PeopleSoft Order Management. The table also indicates which drivers control defaults for the Services VAT Treatment:

VAT Driver	VAT Driver Keys	Country	State	Applicable to Regular VAT Defaults	Applicable to Services VAT Treatment Defaults
Sales Line Identifier Note. PeopleSoft Order Management uses the product ID value for the identifier.	SetID Identifier Table Identifier	Optional	Optional	Yes	Yes
Sales Line Identifier Group Note. PeopleSoft Order Management uses the product group value for the identifier.	Sales Line Identifier Group SetID Identifier Table Sales Line Identifier Group	Optional	Optional	Yes	Yes

Updating and Viewing Sales Order VAT Information

This section provides an overview of sales order VAT information and discusses how to modify:

VAT Header data.
VAT Line data.
VAT Schedule data.

Understanding Sales Order VAT Information

This section discusses:

VAT sales order processing
Header defaults
Line defaults
Schedule defaults

VAT Sales Order Processing

Avoid changing these values manually because complex algorithms are used to obtain the VAT defaults. However, if the algorithms have problems finding defaults, then manual intervention is necessary. For this reason, PeopleSoft Order Management does not protect most of the fields on the VAT Information pages.

Be careful when manually changing defaults, especially the value in the VAT Treatment field, because this value is used as a VAT default value for sales order lines.

You can change the customer exception type only if a valid country is in the bill from the VAT country field and the treatment is domestic or domestic distance sale. You can change the exception type to Suspended only if suspension is allowed for the seller's VAT registration country.

The fields should be populated before the VAT default function is called to avoid errors or incorrect calculations. This table displays the source for the fields:

Field	Header Source	Line/Schedule Source
Customer Location Country (COUNTRY_LOC_BUYER).	Customer bill to location.	Default value from header.
Customer Location State (STATE_LOC_BUYER).	Customer bill to location.	Default value from header.
Location Country (COUNTRY_LOC_SELLER).	Order Management Business Unit location.	Default value from header.
Location State (STATE_LOC_SELLER).	Order Management Business Unit location.	Default value from header.
Ship from Country (COUNTRY_SHIP_FROM).	Default Inventory Business Unit location country.	If line ship-from Inventory business unit is the same as the header Inventory business unit, the header default value is used. Otherwise, the location country of the Inventory business unit where the product is shipping from is used.
Ship from State (STATE_SHIP_FROM).	Default Inventory Business Unit location state.	If line ship-from Inventory business unit is the same as the header Inventory business unit, the header default value is used. Otherwise, the location state of the Inventory business unit where the product is shipping from is used.
Ship to Country (COUNTRY_SHIP_TO).	Ship to customer location country or override value.	Header default value if the ship-to locations are the same; otherwise, use the ship-to location or override on the line.
Ship to State (STATE_SHIP_TO).	Ship to customer location state or override value.	Header default value if the ship-to locations are the same; otherwise, use the ship-to location or override on the line.
Service Performed Country (COUNTRY_VAT_PERFRM).	Depends on the value in the Where Services Performed flag at the header. If the flag specifies the ship-from location, this field is set to the Order Management business unit country. If the flag specifies the ship-to location, this field is set to the customer's ship-to country. If the flag specifies the buyer's location, this field is set to the customer's bill-to location country. If the flag specifies the supplier's location, this field is set to the location country of the Order Management business unit.	Depends on the value in the Where Services Performed field at the line. If the flag specifies the ship-from location, this field is set to the country of the Order Management business unit. If the flag specifies the ship-to location, this field is set to the customer's ship-to country. If the flag specifies the buyer's location, this field is set to the customer's bill-to location country. If the flag specifies the supplier's location, this field is set to the location country of the Order Management business unit.
STATE_VAT_PERFRM	Depends on the value that is in the Where Services Performed field at the header. If the flag specifies the ship-from location, this field is set to the state of the Order Management business unit. If the flag specifies the ship-to location, this field is set to the customer's ship-to state. If the flag specifies the buyer's location, this field is set to the customer's bill-to location state. If the flag specifies the supplier's location, this field is set to the location state of the Order Management business unit.	Depends on the value in the Where Services Performed field at the line. If the flag specifies the ship-from location, this field is set to the state of the Order Management business unit. If the flag specifies the ship-to location, this field is set to the customer's ship-to state. If the flag specifies the buyer's location, this field is set to the customer's bill-to location state. If the flag specifies the supplier's location, this field is set to the location state of the Order Management business unit.

The following fields are always unavailable for entry; they automatically change in response to a change in the ship-from Inventory business unit or the ship-to address. If the ship-from or ship-to country that is involved does not require tracking VAT at the state level, the state field is blank.

State ship from

Header Defaults

Initial header-level defaults are determined:

At save time or edit for the entire order.

Header-level defaults are determined prior to line defaults.
When you access the Header VAT Information page.
When you click the Calculate Price button.
If a line default is triggered, the system checks to ensure that the header-level defaults are applied. If the defaults are needed, they are determined.

The Where Services Performed flag is retrieved from either the bill-to customer location or the Order Management business unit.

Defaults are automatically reapplied if VAT defaults are already determined at the header level and the fields are changed at the line level:

Address Ship To Sequence change or Ship To Address Override.

If the resulting change causes the ship-to country or state to change, the system automatically reapplies the VAT defaults to the header, line, and any schedules that have their addresses updated as a result of this change.
Sold-to or bill-to customer changes cause the entire order to be moved again by default; however, this type of change can occur only before the sales order is saved.

Note. If the bill-to location is changed and this results in changes to the customer location and state, VAT defaults are not automatically reapplied. Any lines or schedules to which defaults have been applied prior to the change being made must be reapplied manually, as needed.

Line Defaults

Initial line-level defaults are determined:

At save time or edit for the entire order.
When you access the Line VAT Information page.
When you access the Shipment Schedule page for the line.
When you click the Calculate button.

The default Physical Nature and Where Services Performed flags are automatically applied when you enter the product ID. The fields are applied based on this hierarchy: product definition, bill-to customer location, Order Management business unit.

The header-level VAT defaults are copied to the line if the fields on the header and line match:

Physical nature.
Ship-from and ship-to country/state.
Buyer and seller location/state.
Country and state where the service is physically performed.
VAT entity.
VAT service type.
VAT service place of supply driver.

VAT defaults are automatically reapplied if the VAT defaults are already determined and the fields are changed at the line level:

Product ID.

The VAT defaults are reapplied to the line and all schedules.
Address ship-to sequence change or ship-to address override.

If the resulting change causes the ship-to country or state to change, the system automatically reapplies the VAT defaults to the line and any schedules that have their addresses updated as a result of this change.
Ship from Inventory business unit.

If the resulting change causes the ship-from country or state or the VAT entity to change, the system automatically reapplies the VAT defaults to the line. If a single schedule exists, the schedule defaults are also be reapplied.

Schedule Defaults

Initial schedule-level defaults are determined:

At save time or edit for the entire order.
When you click the Calculate button.
When you access the Shipment Schedule page for the first time.
When you copy or split a shipment into additional schedules.

The line-level VAT defaults are copied to the schedule if the fields on the line and schedule match:

VAT entity.
Ship-from and ship-to country/state.
Buyer and seller location/state.
Country and state where the service is physically performed.
VAT service type.
VAT service place of supply driver.

VAT defaults are automatically reapplied if the VAT defaults are already determined and these fields are changed at the schedule level:

Address ship to sequence

If the resulting change causes the ship-to country or state to change, the system automatically reapplies the VAT defaults to the schedule. If a single schedule exists, the line defaults are also reapplied.
Address override.

If the resulting change causes the ship-to country or state to change, the system automatically reapplies defaults to the schedule.
Ship-from Inventory business unit.

If the resulting change causes the ship-from country or state, or the VAT entity to change, the system automatically reapplies the VAT defaults to the schedule. If a single schedule exists, the line defaults are also reapplied.

VAT Locations

Location Country	For services only, displays the country of the Order Management business unit.
Location State	For services only, displays the state of the Order Management business unit.
Customer Location Country	For services only, displays the customer's bill-to location country.
Customer Location State	For services only, displays the customer's bill-to location state.
Service Performed Country	Depending on the setting of the Services Performed flag that is in the VAT default hierarchy (for example, at customer or business-unit level), the system sets the value for this field in the following ways: If the flag specifies the ship-from location, this field is set to the Inventory business unit country. If the flag specifies the ship-to location, this field is set to the customer ship-to country. If the flag specifies the buyer's location, this field is set to the customer's bill-to location country. If the flag specifies the supplier's location, this field is set to the location country of the Order Management business unit.
Service Performed State	If the service performed country requires that VAT be tracked by state, this field is populated depending on the setting of the Services Performed flag that is in the VAT default hierarchy (for example, customer or business-unit level). The system sets the value for this field in the following way: If the flag specifies the ship-from location, this field is set to the Inventory business unit state. If the flag specifies the ship-to location, this field is set to the customer ship-to state. If the flag specifies the buyer's location, this field is set to the customer's bill-to location state. If the flag specifies the supplier's location, this field is set to the location state of the Order Management business unit.
Ship From Country	Displays the ship-from location country. In the case of transactions involving goods or freight service transactions, this is used to determine the VAT treatment.
Ship From State	If the ship-from country requires that VAT be tracked by state, displays the ship-from location state. In the case of transactions involving goods or freight service transactions, this is used to determine the VAT treatment.
Ship To Country	Displays the ship-to customer location country. In the case of transactions involving goods or freight service transactions, this is used to determine the VAT treatment.
Ship To State	If the ship to country requires that VAT be tracked by state, displays the ship-to customer location state. In the case of transactions involving goods or freight service transactions, this is used to determine the VAT treatment.

VAT Defaults

This group box contains the:

VAT service-specific defaults.
VAT registrations defaults.
VAT controls defaults.
VAT treatments.
Adjust/reset VAT defaults.

Service Type	If the transaction is for a service, it displays the VAT service type of Freight or Other. The value that is in this field determines whether the special rules for freight transport within the European Union (EU) apply.
Place of Supply Driver	If the transaction is for a service, displays the usual place of supply (the place where VAT is usually liable) for the service. This value is used to help determine the place of supply country and the VAT treatment. Values are Buyer's Countries, Supplier's Countries, and Where Physically Performed.
Reporting Country	Displays the country for which VAT is reported. This is the VAT Entity VAT registration country and determines many of the VAT defaults.
Defaulting State	If the reporting country requires that VAT be tracked by state or province, this field displays the state that is within the reporting country that is used to retrieve values from the VAT Defaults table.
Customer Registration Country and Customer Registration ID	Displays the registration country and ID of the bill-to customer.
Customer Exception Type	Displays the exception that is granted to the customer. Values are None, Exonerated, and Suspended. This value is specified on the bill-to customer.
Certificate ID	If applicable, displays the ID of the VAT exception certificate that may have been issued to the customer.
Calculate at Gross or Net	Indicates how VAT is calculated. values are: Gross: The system calculates VAT before it applies any early-payment discounts. Net: The system calculates VAT after it deducts early-payment discounts. If two percentage discounts exist, the system uses the larger of the two when it calculates VAT. The system does not use discount amounts, only discount percentages. The default value comes from the VAT entity driver.
Recalculate at Payment	Select to enable the recalculation of VAT at payment time to allow for any early payment discounts if you are calculating VAT at gross. This causes the system to adjust the VAT amount at the time of payment if the discount is taken. This is set on the VAT entity driver.
Declaration Point	Determines when the VAT transaction information will be recognized for reporting purposes. Values are: Invoice: VAT is recognized at the time of invoice. Payment: VAT is recognized at the time of payment. Delivery: VAT is recognized on delivery. Accounting: VAT is recognized on the date of accounting. This value can be set at any level in the VAT hierarchy: VAT entity registration, business unit options, customer, or customer location.
Rounding Rule	Displays the VAT rounding rule. The value comes from the VAT country driver or VAT entity driver definition. Values are: Nat Rnd (natural round): Amounts are rounded normally (up or down) to the precision that is specified for the currency code. For example, for a currency that is defined with two decimal places, 157.4659 is rounded up to 157.47, but 157.4649 is rounded down to 157.46. Down: Amounts are rounded down. For example, for a currency that is defined with two decimal places, 157.4699 is rounded down to 157.46. Up: Amounts are rounded up with a rounding precision to one additional decimal place. For example, for a currency that is defined with two decimal places, 157.4659 is rounded up to 157.47, but 157.4609 is rounded to 157.46.
Place of Supply Country	For services, displays the country in which the VAT is liable.
Treatment	Displays the VAT treatment. Values are: Deemed Service Export: Services that are provided in the supplier's country to a foreign buyer, where the supply of these services must be zero-rated (that is, the place of supply is the country in which the supplier is located and registered for VAT, but the customer is located in another country). Domestic Goods Sale: Sale of goods where the supplier and customer are located in the same country. EU Goods Distance Sale: Sale of goods between EU countries in which the supplier is registered in an EU country and the purchaser is not registered in an EU country. The VAT rate that is charged is the rate that is applicable in the supplier's country. EU Goods Sale: Sale of goods between VAT-registered traders in different EU countries. EU Sale (Simplification): Used for a transaction between an intermediary and the purchaser in cases in which a sale of goods between EU countries involves three parties: the purchaser, an intermediary (bill-from) supplier, and the actual goods supplier. Each party is located in a different EU country and registered in their own country, and not in either of the other two countries. The only difference between this VAT treatment and that which is applied to normal EU sales is that the supplier is required to print a different message on the invoice referencing the statute that applies to triangulation, rather than the one that references the statute for normal EU sales. No VAT Processing: No VAT processing is required. Out of Scope EU Service Sale: EU services are outside of the scope of VAT. Outside of Scope Service Export: Export services are outside of the scope of VAT. Outside of Scope: Outside of the scope of VAT. Zero-rated EU Service Sale: Sale of services that are within the EU are subject to zero-rated VAT. Zero-rated Goods Export: Export of goods are subject to zero-rated VAT. Zero-rated Services Export: Export of services are subject to zero-rated VAT. Within PeopleSoft detail VAT treatment values that are on the transaction lines are used for applying the precise defaults that are applicable to the transaction lines. The treatment is determined based on the rules that apply to the transaction.
Adjust/Reset VAT Defaults	Any changes that you make to fields on this page may affect VAT defaults on this page. Adjusting or resetting VAT defaults will affect only fields that are within the VAT Defaults group box.
Adjust Affected VAT Defaults	Click to have the system adjust the VAT defaults that are affected by your changes. All changes that you have made to VAT defaults on this page that affect other VAT defaults on this page will be retained. Oracle recommends that you always click the Adjust Affected VAT Defaults button after changing any defaults on the VAT page. Because values that appear lower down on the page might depend on values that appear higher up on the page, you should work from top to bottom and click the Adjust Affected VAT Defaults button in the Adjust/Reset VAT Defaults collapsible region as needed. This prevents updating values that you have already overridden. Click the i button to list the fields that are to be adjusted.
Levels	Before you click the Reset All VAT Defaults button, select the levels to which you want the action to apply: All lower levels: Select to reset all VAT defaults at lower levels for this page. From the sales order header, selecting this value resets all VAT defaults on all the sales order lines and all the sales order schedule lines. From the sales order line, selecting this value resets all VAT defaults on all of the schedule lines associated with the current sales order line. This and all lower levels: Select to reset all VAT defaults that are on this VAT page and at any lower levels of this page. From the sales order header, selecting this value resets all VAT defaults on the header plus all the sales order lines and all the sales order schedule lines. From the sales order line, selecting this value resets all VAT defaults on the sales order line plus all of the schedule lines associated with the current sales order line. This level only: Select to reset all VAT defaults that are on this VAT page.
Reset All VAT Defaults	Click to reset any fields that you may have overridden on this page (including those that you changed by clicking the Adjust Affected VAT Defaults button) back to the original defaults before you save the page. Depending on your selection in the Levels field, the VAT default values will be reset for the sales order header, the sales order line, the sales order schedule line, or all three. Note. Resetting completely redetermines the VAT defaults. If you have changed a VAT driver field, resetting VAT defaults does not necessarily return the original default values. Rather, it resets all of the default values based on the new driver value.
