Country-Specific Functionality for Taiwan

This section discusses Taiwan-specific setup and processes that you use in addition to the standard setup and processes provided in the base software.

Setup or Process

Description

UDCs (user-defined codes)

In addition to the UDCs in the standard software, you set up Taiwan-specific UDCs to process transactions for which VAT applies and for which you issue a GUI.

See Setting Up User-Defined Codes for GUI/VAT.

AAIs (automatic accounting instructions)

No Taiwan-specific AAIs exist. However, you must set up the standard financial and distribution AAIs to process Taiwanese transactions.

See Setting Up AAIs for GUI/VAT.

Next numbers

You set up the required next numbers for the standard software in the Next Numbers program (P0002).

Set up a next numbering scheme for system 75T (Taiwan) on the first line of the Set Up Next Numbers by System form in the Next Numbers program (P0002) to use for GUI/VAT transactions.
