Financial Management: Accounts Payable

You can set up the company, the supplier address number and the business unit to use the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality. When you work with vouchers using one of these entities, the system:

• Checks whether the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled for the company.

• Verifies that the VAT registration number (Tax ID) exists for the Business Unit and the Supplier.

• Retrieves the tax rate/area from the alternate tax rate/area assignment setup based on the Business Unit/Supplier country codes.

Some programs are affected by the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality, but are not modified. Those programs are:

• Voucher JE Redistribution (P042002)

• Update Store and Forward Records (R0041Z1)

• Store and Forward Voucher Batch (R04110Z2)

• Batch Voucher Processor (R04110ZA)

• Inbound AP Claim Program (R04110ZB)

• Calculate Withholding (R04580)

• Recycle Recurring Vouchers (R48101)

This table describes how programs in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable system use the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality:

Program	Comments
Standard Voucher Entry (P0411)	This program allows users to copy, add or change vouchers. When you add a new voucher or modify an existing one, the system completes the header with default values. When you work in the grid area, the system checks if the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled for the company. If the functionality is enabled, the system assigns the tax rate/area for the vouchers added or modified, based on the combination of supplier and business unit countries. If the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled, the system does not allow modifications to the business unit.
Multi Company - Single Supplier (P041016)	You can use this program to enter a voucher using different companies. The system completes the account number based on the supplier entered on the header area, and completes the company and business unit based on the account. Note:The system does not update the Tax Rate/Area field if you manually make changes in the form header. If you modify the account number on a record in the grid, the systems checks if the company and the business unit changed and if the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality constant is enabled for the company. If it is, the system overrides the Tax Rate/Area value with the applicable alternate tax rate/area according to the new information.
Multi Voucher - Single/Multiple Supplier (P041017)	With this program, you can enter several vouchers, either for a single supplier or for multiple suppliers. When you modify a voucher or you enter a new voucher by adding a line to the grid, the system checks if the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled for the company. If the functionality is enabled, the system will retrieve the applicable alternate tax rate/area based on the combination of supplier and business unit countries. You can also override the tax area directly in the header area or in the grid using this program.
Speed Status Change (P0411S)	You can update an individual voucher or a group of vouchers using this program. If the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled for the company, you cannot change the business unit of the transaction. If the alternate tax rate/area assignment company constant is enabled, the system disables the business unit field. Otherwise, the business unit field is enabled and you can change its value. When updating a group of vouchers, if you change the value of the business unit, the system also checks if the company of the selected document has the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality enabled. If it is disabled, the system updates the transaction with the business unit you enter. If it is enabled, the system displays a message indicating that the business unit cannot be changed.
AP Speed Voucher Entry (P0411SV)	When entering vouchers using this application, you enter the supplier and the company on the header. When you work in the grid area, the system checks if the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled for the company. If the functionality is enabled, the system assigns the tax rate/area for the new voucher, based on the combination of supplier and business unit countries, and shows the applicable tax rate/area on the header. This program retrieves the Tax Rate/Area value from the Supplier, but when the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality constant is enabled, the system retrieves the applicable alternate tax rate/area overriding the information from the Supplier, regardless if the changes are entered in the header area or in the grid.
Batch Voucher Revisions (P0411Z1)	When adding or modifying a batch of vouchers using this application, you enter the supplier and the company on the header. The system uses this information to retrieve the business unit. When you work in the grid area, the system checks if the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled for the company. If the functionality is enabled, you cannot modify the business unit and the system assigns the tax rate/area for the voucher added or modified, based on the combination of supplier and business unit countries.
Inbound EDI Voucher Edit/Create (R47041)	This program processes inbound EDI invoices without matching the voucher to a purchase order. When the tax area is blank, the report completes the tax area with the customer tax area. However, if the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled, the system replaces the default tax rate/area and applies the appropriate alternate tax rate/area for the records created or modified.
