Import Fiscal Document

You can import a fiscal document related to a purchase order. You can also understand how taxes are handled on an XML imported fiscal document.

In the Manage Inbound Fiscal Documents page, the tax amount indicated in the XML imported fiscal document is captured in the Fiscal Document Tax Amount field, and the amount calculated based on tax configuration is captured in the Tax Amount field. If the difference between the fiscal document tax amount and tax amount exceeds the tolerance limit, fiscal document is put on hold.

This table describes various scenarios involving the fiscal document tax amount and tax amount and how taxes are handled on an XML imported fiscal document:
