Brazilian Triangular Operations (Dropship)
A Triangular Operation (Drop-Shipping) is an operation where three parties are involved: the Seller, the Supplier, and the Customer. This operation requires several Fiscal Documents.
This image shows the Brazilian Triangular Operations (Dropship):
Dropship as Seller
There is no shipment transaction in this flow. A fiscal document is required when you create the receivables invoice for it.

Dropship as Supplier
A sales order is created with a specific Transaction Business Category (5118,5119, 6118 and 6119) to indicate it is a Brazilian Dropship flow as Supplier. A fiscal document is required for the shipment and the corresponding Transaction Business Category (5923 or 6923) is automatically derived according to the Ship-To address.
Once the shipment is confirmed, the sales order information is interfaced to Receivables where an invoice is created for the sales transaction and a second fiscal document is required.
Tax Setup Considerations
While configuring the Dropship as Supplier tax setup, you must consider the two fiscal document perspectives when creating tax rules. The same rule may not apply to both shipment and receivables transactions.
The shipment based fiscal documents are related to the goods remittance to the customer, so the Ship-To information should be considered in the tax rules to drive the tax calculation.
The sales order and the receivables based fiscal document are related to the symbolic remittance to the seller, so the Bill-to information must be considered in the tax rules to drive the tax calculation.
