Alternate Tax Rate/Area Assignment Functionality for Manual Billing

If you have enabled the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality for the company of the building, the system retrieves the alternate tax rate/area when you add or modify a manual billing record. The system retrieves the alternate tax rate/area only when the entities for the manual billing record are in the European Union and an alternate tax rate/area is set up for the entities in the Alternate Tax Rate/Area Definition program (P40081).

See "Setting Up Alternate Tax Rate/Area Assignment Functionality" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Tax Processing Implementation Guide.

Note: If you set the Display Tax Fields processing option to suppress tax fields, then the system does not retrieve the alternate tax rate/area even if the functionality is enabled for the company.

You can enter and modify values in the header area and detail lines for manual billing records. This list describes how the system retrieves the alternate tax rate/area for header fields and detail line fields when the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled and you have not suppressed the display of the tax fields:

When you enter a lease number in the header area, the system uses the Lessee information to determine whether to retrieve the alternate tax rate/area for a sale or purchase transaction.
When you complete the Building field in a detail line, the system retrieves the alternate tax rate/area for the building.
If an error occurs, then the system displays an error message, a warning message, or no message, depending on how you set up the Company Constant for the Alternate Tax Rate/Area Assignment Functionality. If you change the value in the Building field, then the system again retrieves the corresponding alternate tax rate/area.
If you manually enter a value in the Tax Rate/Area field in the detail line, then the system will not retrieve the alternate tax rate/area when you enter or change the value in the Building field.
If you modify an existing manual billing record, the system does not allow you to modify the Lease Number, Tenant, Tax Ex Code and Tax Rate/Area fields in the header area.
If you change the value in the Building field in a detail line, the system retrieves the alternate tax tate/area of the new building. If an error occurs, then the system displays an error message, a warning message, or no message, depending on the setup in the constant.
If you manually change the Tax Rate/Area field in the detail line, then the system will not retrieve the alternate tax rate/area when you enter or change the value in the Building field.
