Enter the SUT information for the schedule.

VAT Information for a Schedule Page

PO_SCHED_VAT

Review and update VAT details for this schedule. This page is accessible only if the General Ledger business unit on the Purchasing business unit links to a valid VAT entity.

Direct Shipment Page

PO_SCHED_OM

View sales order information about a drop-shipment purchase order. The purchase order must have a direct shipment.

Drop-ship orders are not eligible for receiving in PeopleSoft Purchasing, because they are normally sent directly to a customer site and received there.

PO ShipTo Comments Page

PO_COMMENTS_SEC

Enter comments for a transaction. You can enter a unique comment, or you can select from predefined standard comments.

Pegging Workbench Page

IN_PEG_DETAIL_SP

Use the Maintain Purchase Order - Schedules page (PO_SCHEDULE) to specify ship to, quantities, due dates, comments, SUT, miscellaneous charges, price adjustments, and multiple distributions per schedule within a purchase order line.

Navigation:

Purchasing > Purchase Orders > Add/Update POs > Maintain Purchase Order - Purchase Order

Click the Schedule button next to a purchase order line on the Maintain Purchase Order - Purchase Order page.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Maintain Purchase Orders - Schedules page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Maintain Purchase Orders - Schedules page

The Schedules page displays header information for the purchase order, such as the purchase order ID, date, and status. The page also displays schedule details for purchase order lines. The Lines group box provides basic information about individual lines and the Schedules grid box provides detailed schedule information.

Field or Control

Description

Finalize Document

Click the Finalize Document button to finalize all referenced requisitions for the current purchase order. The system verifies that all line distributions in the purchase order schedule have the associated predecessor requisition distributions. If the associated requisition has been finalized, the system de-associates the requisition from the purchase order before running budget checking to avoid over liquidating the pre-encumbrance.

If multiple purchase order schedules are associated to the same requisition schedule, the entire requisition schedule may be finalized from any of the related purchase order schedules.

The system does not display this button if commitment control is off or if the purchase order is not sourced from a requisition, and thus has no predecessor.

Undo Finalize Entire Document

Click the Undo Finalize Entire Document button to reverse finalizing the referenced requisitions for this purchase order.

The system does not display this button if commitment control is off or if the purchase order is not sourced from a requisition, and thus has no predecessor.

Note: If you identify a distribution line as final for less, you must run budget checking afterwards.

Note: If a schedule is a PeopleSoft Order Management direct shipment, the system displays a warning when you change, delete, or cancel the schedule. Changes that you make to schedules here that are related to PeopleSoft Order Management do not update the related information in the PeopleSoft Order Management application. You can tell if you have a direct shipment, because the Schedule Direct Shipment button appears on the Maintain Purchase Order - Schedules page, instead of a ShipTo Address button.

Field or Control

Description

PO Status

Current status of the entire purchase order. Valid status values are Initial, Open, Pending Approval, Approved, Dispatched, Canceled, and Complete.

Description

Click the Item Description link to view a description of the item. The link displays in the Lines group box next to the item ID.

Add Ship To Address Comments

Click to access the PO ShipTo Comments page.

Details

Use the Schedules grid box to view and maintain a variety of schedule information for purchase order lines that appear in the grid box. The Details tab enables you to define basic schedule information for the purchase order line.

Field or Control

Description

Sched (schedule)

Displays the schedule number used by the system to track multiple schedules for a purchase order line. The system automatically assigns the number.

Line details

Click the Details button to access the Details page where you can view or maintain schedule details.

See Details for Schedule Page.

Due Date

Displays the default due date for the schedule. If there is no default due date, the system calculates one by adding the lead-time days to the purchase order date. You can override the due date for each schedule as long as it is not earlier than the purchase order date.

If the item is an inventory item and an Inventory business unit is entered on the first distribution line of the schedule on the Distribution Details page, the due date is validated against the closure calendar definition for the PeopleSoft Inventory business unit. This ensures that the business unit is open to receive merchandise on that day. If the date is not a valid date for that business unit, the system issues a warning for you to accept the date anyway or use the next available date.

If the item is not an inventory item, the shipping due date is validated against the closure calendar definition for the PeopleSoft Purchasing business unit.

When you create a change order by adding a line to the purchase order on a purchase order that has a due date in the past, the system will populate the due date for the new line with the current date plus lead time days, if a lead time exists for the category. Otherwise, the current date will appear in the Due Date field.

When the purchase order is created using the copy from purchase order method, the due date is calculated again. If the resulting calculated date is greater than the due date copied from the copied purchase order, then the calculated date is set as the due date for the new purchase order. If the calculated date is less than the copied due date, the copied due date is retained as the due date in the new purchase order.

Direct Shipment

Click the Schedule Direct Shipment button to access the Direct Shipment page. Use the Direct Shipment page to view PeopleSoft Order Management sales order information related to the direct shipment.

Ship To

Ship to destination. A change to the ship to can result in a price change, a sales and use tax recalculation, or a VAT recalculation.

Ship To GLM (ship to global location number)

Displays the global location number for the corresponding ship to location, if available.

Ship to Address

Click the Ship To Address button to access the PO ShipTo Address page. Use this page to set up a one-time ship to address for the selected purchase order schedule.

Note: You cannot define a one-time address for direct shipment purchase orders. To change the address for a direct shipment you must go to the sales order in PeopleSoft Order Management and make the address change there.

PO Quantity

The purchase order quantity for the first schedule automatically changes to the entire line quantity. You can override the quantity with a lower number and insert a second schedule for the difference.

The purchase order quantity for the second schedule automatically changes to the difference between the line quantity and the quantity on the first schedule.

If you update the line quantity and have only one schedule, the system updates the schedule automatically. If you have multiple schedules, you must update the schedules manually so that the total schedule quantity equals the line quantity.

Changing the schedule quantity never updates the line quantity. This field is not available for entry for amount only lines.

When you change the purchase order quantity or amount by changing the price, the system verifies the distribution method and liquidation methods. If the distribution method is Amount or if the method is Quantity and the liquidation method is Amount, the system does not allow the quantity or amount to be reduced to less than the quantity or amount vouchered. Also when you change the price, the system does not allow you to make changes when there are vouchers matched to the line or schedule. The system provides a message that you should unpost and unmatch the voucher before it allows the change.

Price

The system calculates the price for the items.

Price calculations can range from simple to complex, depending on the factors you set up.

If there is a contract associated with the line, the system uses the contract rules to determine the price. Contract rules include whether to use the contract base price or the supplier price for the unit of measure on the purchase order. Contract rules also determine which sets of price adjustments the system considers (contract price adjustments and supplier base price adjustments) and in what order.

If you are ordering items by description only, you must enter the price manually. While price is not required, if you have entered schedules without prices, you'll get a warning when you save the purchase order.

This field is not available if the purchase order is used with a recurring purchase order voucher.

Amount

The system calculates the extended amount as the schedule price multiplied by the schedule quantity. This is the merchandise amount of the schedule. It does not include other amounts associated with the schedule, such as freight and tax.

You can override the schedule merchandise amount here, unless the item definition or contract definition for the item on the line does not allow the price to be changed on the purchase order.

This field is not available if the purchase order is used with a recurring purchase order voucher.

When you change the purchase order quantity or amount by changing the price, the system verifies the distribution method and liquidation methods. If the distribution method is Amount or if the method is Quantity and the liquidation method is Amount, the system does not allow the quantity or amount to be reduced to less than the quantity or amount vouchered. Also when you change the price, the system does not allow you to make changes when there are vouchers matched to the line or schedule. The system provides a message that you should unpost and unmatch the voucher before it allows the change.

Status

Displays the status of the purchase order line schedule.

Value Adjustment

Click the Value Adjustment button to access the Price Adjustments page.

See Price Adjustments for Schedule Page.

Miscellaneous charges

RTV

Use the RTV (return to vendor) tab to define exchange returns to vendors associated with this purchase order line schedule. By assigning the RTV information, the PO schedule is identified as the order of the item being exchanged for the item on the return to vendor. A return to vendor for exchange will not be eligible for closing until the exchange item is identified on a PO schedule.

Note: When the due date is changed for a fully-received schedule, the system checks for any supplier returns for that schedule. If there is a return to vendor, the system prevents you from changing the date.

Changing Work Order Information

If the purchase order distributions are associated with a requisition, you must clear the requisition before you can change the work order information. Also, if the work order is associated with the purchase order schedule (non-inventory and ad hoc (description-only) lines), when you make a change to the purchase order and reopen the quantity back on the requisition, the system will reopen the requisition pegs to the work order. Changes that can cause this behavior are reducing quantity, canceling a distribution, and deleting a distribution. If the purchase order is for an inventory item, reopening the requisition quantity does not reopen the pegs. You must manually redo the pegging.

Use the PO ShipTo Address page (PO_ONE_TIME_ADDR) to set up a one-time ship to address for the selected purchase order schedule.

You cannot define a one-time address for direct shipment purchase orders. To change the address for a direct shipment you must go to the sales order in PeopleSoft Order Management and make the address change there.

Navigation:

Click the Ship To Address button on the Maintain Purchase Order - Schedules page.

Note: This page is not available for direct shipment purchase orders.

One Time Address

Field or Control

Description

Location Type

The location type that you enter here automatically overrides the previous location defaults.

Values include:

Order of Acceptance: In Taxware, this is also known as the Point of Order Acceptance (POA). This indicates the location that the order was accepted. In some states, the order of acceptance identities tax applicability. For Taxware, this is the supplier location where the buyer order is approved and accepted. This is generally the order entry location.

Point of Order: This option applies to Taxware software only. Point of order is the supplier location where the buyer order is generally received. Values are:

Ship From: Location from which the order was shipped.

Ship To: Location for which the order will ship.

Location code on which the SUT calculation for the schedule should be based. This is also known as the tax basis.

Note: This option appears by default from the supplier Information - Tax Options, Purchasing Item Attributes, and Purchasing Item Category pages.

Ultimate Use Code

In most cases, sales tax is computed as a use tax based on the tax code applicable to the ship to or usage destination. However, how merchandise is ultimately used may also result in a different tax rate within the same ship to or usage destination. Enter an ultimate use code to override the default tax rate for a location.

Note: This option appears by default from the supplier Information - Tax Options, Purchasing Item Attributes, and Purchasing Item Category pages.

Description

Calculate SUT (calculate sales and use tax)

Click this button to run the TaxCalc API process, which calculates the sales and use tax. Use this option when Vertex or Taxware is installed.

Calculation Parameters

Field or Control

Description

Include VAT

This setting is especially relevant if each line has separate tax code values for SUT and VAT, in which case it is possible to have both on a given line resulting in a tax-on-tax situation. In these instances, the system calculates VAT, then SUT, either on the net-extended amount for the line or on the sum of the net-extended amount and VAT amount.

If this option is selected, it indicates that the VAT amount needs to be taxed and the system adds the VAT amount to the net-extended amount before calculating SUT.

Include Freight

If selected, indicates that the freight amount needs to be taxed and the system adds the freight amount to the net-extended amount before calculating SUT.

Include Misc Charges (include miscellaneous charges)

If selected, indicates that the miscellaneous charges need to be taxed and the system adds the miscellaneous charges to the net-extended amount before calculating SUT.

Note: The Include Vat, Include Freight, and Include Misc Charges calculation parameters appear by default from the Ship To Location Sales/Tax setup page.

Exception Handling

These exceptions apply to the Schedule Sales/Use Tax Information page:

  • If the SUT exception type is exempt or exonerated for the ship to location, the system does not call the TaxCalc API to calculate the exception.

  • If the SUT exception type is direct pay, the system updates the defaults on the SUT Excptn Cert (SUT exception certificate) with the direct pay permit from the ship to location and calls the TaxCAl API to update calculations.

  • If the SUT applicability is sales and the exception type is none, then send the ship to, ship from, POA, POA address, and geocodes, along with the extended amounts, to the TaxCalc API. Sales tax amounts are updated accordingly and distributed to purchase order lines.

  • If the SUT applicability is use and the exception type is none, then send the ship to, ship from, POA, POA address, and geocodes, along with the extended amounts, to the TaxCalc API. Set the transaction type to 1 - sales. Sales tax amounts are updated accordingly and distributed to purchase order lines.

Use the VAT Information for a Schedule page (PO_SCHED_VAT) to review and update VAT details for this schedule.

This page is accessible only if the General Ledger business unit on the Purchasing business unit links to a valid VAT entity.

The default value comes from the VAT entity driver.

Recalculate at Payment

Select this check box 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 has been taken. This is set on the VAT entity driver in the VAT defaults table.

Rounding Rule

Displays the VAT rounding rule. The value comes from the VAT country, VAT Entity, supplier, or supplier location drivers. Values are:

Nat Rnd (natural round): Amounts are rounded normally (up or down) to the precision specified for the currency code. For example, for a currency defined with two decimal places, 157.4659 would round up to 157.47 but 157.4649 would round down to 157.46.

Down (round down): Amounts are rounded down. For example, for a currency defined with two decimal places, 157.4699 would round down to 157.46.

Up (round up): Amounts are rounded up with a rounding precision to one additional decimal place. For example, for a currency defined with 2 decimal places, 157.4659 would round up to 157.47, but 157.4609 would round down to 157.46.

Use Type

Determines the split between recoverable (taxable) and non-recoverable (non-taxable) VAT.

For the Canadian public sector, the use type also determines the rebate of the non-recoverable VAT. VAT rebates are calculated based on statutory rebate rates that are established for each public service body.

The value comes from the VAT defaulting hierarchy, either from the item, item business unit, item category, supplier location, supplier, or purchasing options.

Include Freight

If selected, the system includes any freight amounts in the VAT basis by calculating VAT on the merchandise amount plus any freight amount. This option is only available for exclusive VAT calculation. The value comes from the VAT entity registration driver.

Include Miscellaneous

If selected, the system includes any miscellaneous charge amounts in the VAT basis by calculating VAT on the merchandise amount, plus any miscellaneous charge amount. This option is only available for exclusive VAT calculation. The value comes from the VAT entity registration driver.

Place of Supply Country

Displays the country in which the VAT liable (for services). Place of supply country is determined by algorithm.

Treatment

Displays the VAT treatment. VAT treatment is determined by a complex set of algorithms. Values are:

  • Domestic Goods Purchase: If the ship from and ship to countries are the same, and the supplier is registered for VAT, the transaction is treated as domestic.

  • Domestic Service Purchase: If the buyer and seller are both located in the country where the VAT is liable, the transaction is treated as domestic.

  • EU Goods Purchase: If the ship from and ship to countries are different, the system determines whether both countries are located within the European Union. If so, the system looks at the VAT registration for each trading partner to determine whether the transaction should be treated as an intra-EU purchase, domestic, or outside the scope of VAT.

  • EU Service Purchase: If each trading partner is located and registered in different EU countries, and the VAT on a service is liable in the buyer's country, the transaction is treated as a self-assessed EU Services Purchase.

  • Self-Assess Goods Import: If the ship from country is different from the ship to country and either or both of the countries are located outside of the European Union, and the supplier is not registered in the ship to country, the transaction would be treated as an import. If the flag on the entry in the VAT Country table for the VAT reporting country indicates that VAT on imports should be self-assessed, the transaction will be treated as a self-assess goods import, and both input and output VAT will be recorded.

  • Self-Assess Service Import: If each trading partner is located and registered in different countries, and the VAT on a service is liable in the buyer's country, the transaction is treated as a self-assessed services import.

  • Zero-rated Goods Import: If the ship from country is different from the ship to country and either or both of the countries are located outside of the European Union, and the supplier is not registered in the ship to country, the transaction would be treated as an import. If the flag on the entry in the VAT Country table for the VAT reporting country indicates that only input VAT should be recorded on imports, the transaction will be treated as a zero-rated goods import.

  • Outside of Scope: If the supplier is not registered for VAT, or if the VAT is liable in a country other than the VAT reporting country, the transaction is treated as outside the scope of VAT.

  • No VAT Processing: For transactions where the physical nature is goods, if the ship to country has not been defined as a VAT country and the VAT reporting country on the transaction is blank, no VAT information will be recorded.

Within PeopleSoft, detail VAT treatment values on the transaction lines are used for applying the precise defaults applicable to the transaction lines. The treatment is determined based the rules applicable to the transaction.

Applicability

Displays the VAT status. Applicability is determined by an algorithm that makes use of the Applicable field in the VAT defaults table, the value of which may be set at almost every level in the PeopleSoft Purchasing VAT defaulting hierarchy. Values are:

  • Exempt (not subject to VAT).

  • Exonerated.

  • N/A (not applicable): Valid only when VAT treatment is No VAT Processing.

  • Outside (outside scope of VAT).

  • Suspend.

  • Taxable.

VAT Code

Displays the VAT code that defines the rate at which VAT is calculated for this schedule. The default value comes from the VAT country, purchase order options, supplier, supplier location, item category, and item levels in the PeopleSoft Purchasing VAT defaulting hierarchy.

Record Output VAT

Select this check box to enter vouchers where VAT is not included on the invoice but is payable to the VAT authority rather than the supplier. In this case, you account for both input and output VAT for the purchase. This is the case for an Intra-EU Acquisition or when you must account for output VAT on a service supplied by a foreign supplier. This is also referred to as self-assessing for VAT. The value comes from an algorithm that uses the treatment and applicability to retrieve the applicable value from the PeopleSoft-delivered VAT system setup data.

Transaction Type

Displays the code that categorizes and classifies this transaction for VAT reporting and accounting. The default value comes from the VAT entity registration, purchase order options, supplier, supplier location, item category, and item levels in the PeopleSoft Purchasing VAT defaulting hierarchy.

Adjust/Reset VAT Defaults

Any changes that you make to fields on this page may affect VAT defaults on this page. For accuracy and consistency, use these fields to adjust affected VAT defaults or to reset all VAT defaults. Adjusting or resetting VAT defaults only affects fields within the VAT Defaults group box.

Schedule Details

Field or Control

Description

Custom Price - No Override

Select this check box to indicate that you entered a custom price on the schedule. When the system needs to recalculate a price, it prompts you for approval before automatically recalculating the price.

If you do not select this check box, but change the price on the schedule, the system selects it for you.

Zero Price Indicator No Charge

Select this check box to indicate that this is a zero-priced line and is considered a no charge item.

Frozen (Planning)

If selected, prevents PeopleSoft Supply Planning from changing the schedule. The two schedule changes PeopleSoft Supply Planning is allowed to recommend include:

  • Rescheduling the due date to ensure supply is on hand for a particular demand.

  • Canceling the schedule if no demand exists.

Ship To Location

Displays the ship to destination selected for the purchase order.

Ship to GLN

Displays the global location number for the corresponding ship to location, if available.

Note: If the associated item has a preferred ship to location, the system displays the global location number for that preferred location.

Original Promise Date

Displays the supplier's original promised delivery date. Use this field to track when the supplier promised delivery against the date that the goods were actually received.

Alternatively, you can use the due date on the schedule as the date against which to compare the receipt date for supplier performance tracking.

Doc. Base Amount (document base amount)

Displays the document base amount. This is the Amount value converted to the base currency of the purchase order. The base currency is the currency of the PeopleSoft General Ledger business unit for this PeopleSoft Purchasing business unit.

Matching Controls

Field or Control

Description

Matching

Select the matching method for the schedule. Values are ERS, Full Match, and No Match.

Match Status PO

Displays the match status of the schedule. Values are To Match, Part Matched, Fully Matched, and Unmatched. These are set based on the extent to which the matching process has been completed for the schedule.

The system updates the match status, both from the matching process and from online purchase order maintenance. Online purchase order activity affects the match status if a schedule has already been fully matched and you increase the quantity. In that case, the system resets the match status to reflect a partial match.

Matching Tolerance

When you use matching to verify supplier charges, the system uses price tolerances to determine whether the purchase order and voucher prices are within the tolerances and thus whether the purchase order and purchase order voucher match.

If you leave any of the tolerance fields set to zero or blank, the system interprets this to mean a zero tolerance.

If you don't want to use the tolerance fields, set the amount fields to 99999999.99999 and the percentage fields to 100%.

If you match vouchers against amount-only purchase order lines, multiple vouchers are likely to exist for the same purchase order schedule line. In this case, the under tolerance matching tolerances should not apply. To prevent under tolerance matching exceptions for non-received amount only lines you can do one of these options:

  • Enter 99999999.99999 in the under tolerance fields for matching to a purchase order.

  • Use Accounts Payable matching rules.

    You can specify multiple matching rules on a purchase order, and on those rules, you can choose to use purchase order tolerances or not. You can modify existing delivered rules (by changing the SQL), or create your own rules that eliminate checking the purchase order lower tolerance percentages for amount only purchase order lines.

    See Establishing Matching and Document Association Options.

Value Adjustments

Field or Control

Description

Seq (sequence)

The order in which the system applies adjustments. This distinction can be important if there are percentage adjustments. The amount the percentage represents can vary depending on the order in which the adjustments are applied. You cannot change the sequence number of system-calculated adjustments for the base price of an item or supplier, nor for contract price adjustments.

Type

There are various types of adjustments available for purchase orders.

Indicates the origin of the price adjustment amount. For example, the type is set to CNT (contract) if the purchase order line is associated with a contract and the contract has contract price adjustments defined.

The system calculates some of the adjustments, including the base price adjustment. You can indicate whether the adjustment should be applied for all types, except the base price type.

Base: Base price from the item's Purchasing Attributes page. This is either the item and supplier price or the standard item price. The base price is always the first adjustment and cannot be deleted. Unless the base price adjustment type is user defined, you cannot change it. User-defined base price adjustment types are possible only if you are ordering by description. Values are:

CNT: The price adjustment is from the contract.

TBL: The price adjustment (discount or surcharge) is from the item's Price Adjustments page.

FRT: The price adjustment is from a freight charge.

TAX: The price adjustment is from an SUT amount.

OTH: Other miscellaneous adjustments. If selected, enter the adjustment description in the available text box.

Base Price Type

Identifies where the starting price came from when the value in the Type field is Base. Values are:

Contract: From the contract for the item.

Item Standard: From the standard item price on the item's purchasing attributes.

Supplier Std: From the standard item and supplier pricing structure on the item Purchasing Attributes-Item/supplier page or Price Adjustments page.

User: When the user-defined price is used because the staged row is created without selecting the Calculate Price check box.

Adj Meth (adjustment method)

Pct (percent): If selected, the Pct and Price To Base Percentage On fields become available for entry. Enter the adjustment percent and indicate whether you want the adjustment percentage applied to the base price or to the price as calculated.

For example, suppose that you have a base price of 100 and two percentage adjustments of -10 percent each.

If you select Base, the system applies each adjustment to the base price and totals the adjustments for a total adjustment of -20 and an adjusted price of 80.

If you select Calculated, the system applies the adjustments incrementally according to the adjustment sequence number. The first adjustment of -10 percent is applied to the base price of 100 for an adjustment of -10 and an incremental price of 90. The second adjustment is applied to the calculated incremental price of 90 for an adjustment of -9 and an adjusted price of 81.

Amt (amount): Enter an adjustment amount.

Amount and percent adjustments can be either positive (surcharge) or negative (discount).
