VAT Details for Distribution page

VAT Defaults

Field or Control

Description

Use Type

Determines VAT recoverability. The field value is retrieved from the VAT default hierarchy, but you can override this value.

Use type is a type of activity in which a purchased good or service will be used and, therefore, to determine a recoverability percent and a rebate percent (when applicable) that is applied to a transaction line. Activities are categorized as taxable, exempt, or mixed. Where activity is mixed, you can associate either the ratio of taxable activity to exempt activity directly with the use type, or you can indicate that this ratio is determined at the ChartField level.

Apportionment Control

Displays the business unit that you want to control the VAT apportionment. This value appears by default from the Purchasing business unit. VAT apportionment is the mechanism that enables you to specify the ratio of taxable activity to exempt activity for individual ChartFields.

Recovery Source

Select whether the VAT recovery is Automatic or Manual. This value appears by default from the Purchasing business unit. If you select Manual, enter a value in the Recovery Percent field.

Rebate Source

Select whether the VAT rebate is Automatic or Manual. This value appears by default from the Purchasing business unit. If you select Manual, enter a value in the Rebate Percent field.

Treatment

Controls default and transaction behavior. A description of how the transaction must be treated for VAT purposes. This value is used to determine how VAT defaults are applied, what accounting entries are required, and how and if the transaction is reported on the VAT return. You can override the values in this field.

The VAT defaulting hierarchy determines the value of this field based on the country in which the service is deemed to have been performed, and the countries in which the bank and beneficiary are located and registered.

VAT Code

Select a value to specify the rate at which VAT is calculated. The VAT code used to define a percentage the system uses to determine the VAT amount. The VAT code is similar to the sales and use tax code, with a few exceptions.

The tax authority tied to the VAT code generally consists of a single authority, and the ChartFields for a VAT code do not reside with the tax authority but are determined by the combination of the VAT code, VAT account type, and VAT transaction type.

Transaction Type

Select a value to categorize VAT transactions according to particular VAT accounting and reporting requirements. The VAT code and the VAT transaction type are used in conjunction with the VAT account type to obtain the ChartFields for accounting entries.

Edit Requisition - Review and Submit (chunking) page

If you add an additional line to an existing requisition, the new line is numbered as the last line of the requisition.

Most field descriptions for the Edit Requisition component are located in the Creating Requisitions section. In the Edit Requisition component, some additional fields appear; these fields are discussed below.

If chunking is enabled, then requisition lines in the first chunk will appear and chunking navigation will be visible on this page.

See Requisition Settings Page.

Field or Control

Description

First <#> to <#> of <#> Last

Displays the number of requisition line rows that are displayed on the page if requisition chunking is enabled.

For example, if 21 to 30 of 30 is displayed. It means that the system is displaying the first 20 lines on the page and that there are a total of 30 lines.

The number of requisition lines is determined by the requisition value entered on the eProcurement Installation Options page.

When clicking on the > or the Last link to retrieve a new set of lines, the system warns you that the requisition will be automatically be saved prior to retrieving the next set of lines if they are changed.

Note: These chunking navigation links appear only when editing an existing requisition. They are not displayed during add mode.

Track Batch

Displays the track batch (change batch) sequence number. This field only appears if you have changed a field marked for track change on the requisition change template. The first time that you save a changed requisition, the system displays Track Batch 1 in the requisition header. Each time that you make a change to the requisition, the system increases the track batch number by one. The track batch sequence number appears on the View Requisition Change Tracking History page to distinguish one change from another change and from the original field value.

See Changing Requisitions.

First, <, >, and Last

The First, arrow icons (<,>), and Last links appear if requisition line chunking has been enabled on the eProcurement Installation Options page using the Requisition field. Requisition chunking splits the requisitions lines of a large requisition into more manageable groups, such as 10 lines per chunk. The number of requisition lines displayed is determined by the requisition value entered on the eProcurement Installation Options page. The chunking links enable you to move between chunks and they appear only when editing an existing requisition and not when creating a requisition. They are not hidden on the Requisition page when the total number of lines equals or is less than the chunking limit until you click the Save for Later button.

When clicking the > or the Last link to retrieve a new set of lines for the first time, the system warns you that the requisition will be automatically saved before retrieving the next set of lines. This enables the system to save any changes made to the first chunk of lines. The warning message will not be issued during subsequent navigation between chunks, and it appears only once per session.

Sourced to Purchase Order icon

The Sourced to Purchase Order icon displays to the right of the Line number and indicates that the requisition line has been sourced to a purchase order line. If the line has not yet been sourced to a purchase order, no icon appears.

Unavailable for Edit icon

The Unavailable for Edit icon displays to the right of the Line number and indicates that the requisition line cannot be changed. Users cannot edit requisition lines when:

  • The line has been submitted for an RFQ (request for quote).

  • Sourcing is in process for the requisition line.

  • A sourcing event is in process for the line item.

  • The line is sourced to PeopleSoft Inventory.

  • The line is a Services Procurement requisition line that has been sourced.

Details icon

Click the Details button to access the Line Details (PV_REQ_LINE_DTLS) page to change requisition line details.

Recalculate Gross icon

Click to have the system recalculate and update VAT amounts for the requisition.

VAT Amount (value added tax amount)

Displays the amount of value added tax (VAT) calculated on a VAT-enabled requisition. It does not appear when the Calculate VAT on Requisition check box at Purchasing business unit level is not selected, the purchasing business unit is not in a VAT environment, the VAT_DETAILS eProcurement role action is not used, and the user eProcurement role is not added to the user ID profile.

In addition, for Purchasing Requisition in a VAT enabled Business Unit, VAT Amount and icon also do not appear when the User ID Preferences - Requisition Authorizations for Allowed Requisition Actions of View/Override VAT Details is not selected.

Pre-Encumbrance Balance

Displays the pre-encumbrance balance amount after requisition is successfully budget checked. When you use commitment control, the system deducts each type of financial obligation from the budget and tracks it according to obligation type. This enables you to determine the money that you have committed in pre-encumbrances. The system extracts these values from commitment control tables by passing the business unit, document ID, and other key information that depends on the display. The system displays this field only when commitment control for purchasing is enabled and if the document has been budget checked successfully at least once. In addition, a default commitment detail ledger must be selected on the Ledgers For A Unit – Commitment Control Options page so that the accounting entries can be summarized to display the respective pre-encumbrance balance for the requisition.

Pre-encumbrance balance appears in the transaction currency of the requisition and is based on the transaction budget date, general ledger unit, and commitment control ledger group. Pre-encumbrance balance can be partially or fully liquidated from purchase orders.

Click the Pre-Encumbrance Balance amount hyperlink to view Requisition Accounting Entries. You can use this page to view accounting information details including the commitment control ledger group and transactions that have been performed against the requisition.
