Service Billing

You can set up the company, the business unit, and customer to use the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality. When you add or modify a sales order with 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:

  • Voucher generation (R48122)

  • Service Billing Invoice Generation (P48121)

  • Create AR Entries (R48199)

  • Journal Edit Register (R48300)

  • Invoice Generation (R48121)

  • Billing Vouchers AP/GL (R48197)
