Setting Up Transactions

You set up this information for use in sales order, procurement, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and journal entry transactions:

Task

Purpose

Set up authorization codes. You must complete this task to limit who can generate GUI information.

See Authorization Code (75T/AC).

The system uses authorization codes to determine if a user is authorized to generate GUIs for transaction types for a specific declaration site. After you set up authorization codes, you assign the codes to declaration sites, GUI/VAT number segments, and users.

Link GUI creation to declaration sites. You must complete this task to access the Taiwan-specific forms for entering GUI information when you enter sales orders, invoices, vouchers, and journal entries. You activate the link when you set up declaration sites in the GUI/VAT Declaration Site program.

When you set up declaration sites, you can set values to create GUI records when you enter sales orders, invoices, vouchers, or journal entries. When you specify Y (yes) to generate GUI records and your user display preference is set to TW (Taiwan), the system displays an additional form on which you enter the GUI information after you enter the standard information for sales orders, invoices, vouchers, and journal entries.

Associate tax types to tax explanation codes and tax rate areas.

See Setting Up the GUI/VAT Tax Type Mapping for Taiwan.

The system uses the tax type that you set up as a default value when you enter the Taiwan-specific information that is required for transactions to which GUI/VAT applies.

Associate format codes to document types and specify the standard software program that you use to enter the standard information for the document type/format code combination.

See Associating Format Codes and Programs to Document Types.

You set up the association between format codes and document types so that the system retrieves the format code when you enter a transaction for the document type.

You specify the standard program that you use to enter standard information for a document type/format code because it is possible, in some instances, to use different standard programs. For example, you might use either the Standard Voucher Entry program (P0411) or the Journal Entries with VAT program (P09106) to enter transactions for imported goods (document type IMP).

Set up corresponding versions of the standard software transaction entry programs and the Taiwan-specific programs, and specify the version of the standard software transaction program to use to enter Taiwan transactions.

See Setting Up Processing Options and Versions to Work with GUI/VAT Transactions.

The standard software transaction entry programs, such as the Standard Invoice Entry (P03B2002) program, automatically launch a version of the GUI/VAT Transaction program (P75T004) when your system is set up to process Taiwan transactions. The system launches the version of the GUI/VAT Transaction program that corresponds to the version of the standard software entry program.

You must also set up the PO GUI/VAT Transaction (P75T003) program with a corresponding version.
