Setting Up the Organizational Structure

To operate in India, an organization must register with tax authorities and obtain permits that identify registration numbers. In India customs duty calculations are determined by the location of the business transaction, the supplier or customer category, exemptions that an organization, supplier, or customer obtains (identified by appropriate license numbers), and the tax rate.

You can define registration data at the organization setup level. You can define, for example, multiple tax locations for each organization and define for each tax location the ChartFields. You can also associate multiple business units with a tax location and capture business unit tax applicability.

Note: Organizational structure setup for customs duty is shared unless otherwise specified.

To set up the organizational structure, use these components Organization Details (ORG_RGSTN_DTL), BU Tax Applicability (ORG_BU_TAX_APPL), and Tax Location (ORG_TAX_LOC).

This section discusses how to set up the organizational structure.
