How to Validate Tax IDs in Latin American Countries
The logic for validating tax IDs for customers and suppliers for Latin American users in countries for which localized solutions are available is different from the logic for users in other countries. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software supports localized software for these Latin American countries:
Argentina
Brazil
Chile
Colombia
Ecuador
Mexico
Peru
Venezuela
The standard logic for validating tax IDs uses the country code of the customer or supplier, along with values in the Tax Id Validation (70/TI) user-defined code (UDC) table. For the Latin American countries, the logic uses the user's country code as set up in the User Profile Revisions program (P0092) when:
The user's country code is different from the supplier or customer country code, and
The user's country code is for a supported Latin American country.
For example, if the user's country code is EC (Ecuador) and the supplier's country code is IT (Italy), the system:
Verifies that the IT value exists in the 70/TI UDC table.
Uses the validation routine for Ecuador instead of the validation routine for Italy.
The tax ID validation system for Ecuador does not allow duplicate tax ID numbers, except for related parent address book numbers. When you enter a new address number record and specify that there is an existing address book parent record with the same Tax ID, the system allows that duplicity.
