Financial Management: Accounts Receivable

You can set up the company, the customer and the business unit to use the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality. When you work with invoices 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 Customer.

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

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

  • A/R Finance Charge Journal (R03B22)

  • AR/AP Netting (P03B455)

  • Convert Unapplied Receipts to Credit Memos (R03B620)

  • Credit Reimbursement (R03B610)

  • Draft Entry (P03B602)

Comments

Speed Status Change (P03B114)

You can update an individual invoice or a group of invoices 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.

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.
