Use
To simulate tax event determination and calculation, to test Customizing settings and to produce a trace in the calling client.
This trace contains detailed information on how to correct any errors determined in Customizing or other settings. Where applicable, trace messages contain hyperlinks allowing you to navigate directly to the Customizing activity in the calling client. In a scenario where TTE Customizing is maintained in multiple clients, the Customizing client may not be the calling client.
Note for scenarios in which the Customizing client is not the calling client
In this case, you must login to the Customizing client and navigate manually to the relevant Customizing activity.
To quickly test the simulation functions, the function Generate Sample Document is available. This function supplies all the necessary parameters for testing and can be used to test the domestic sales tax for most European countries, such as the UK and Germany. For other countries, additional customizing may be necessary before this function can be used.
To use this function:
- Enter a country and a document description.
- Choose Extras -> Generate Sample Document.
This generates an input document.
- Choose Call TTE.
This generates an output document.
