Definition

The type of values that are accummulated from the line items in a document to calculate the tax amount according to max tax laws.

1: Quantity

2: Tax base amount

3: Tax amount

1: Quantity

When the max tax threshold is reached at a certain item, the external system is called again with a new base amount. This amount is calculated using the maximum total quantity, the accummulated quantity and the original item's base amount and quantity:

COM_TAX-AMOUNT * ((MAX_QTY - ACCUM_QTY) / COM_TAX-QUANTITY))

2: Tax base amount

When the max tax threshold is reached at a certain item, the external system is called again with the remaining amount. This remaining amount is the maximum base amount minus the accummulated base amount of the previous items.

3: Tax amount

When the max tax threshold is reached at a certain item, this item's tax amount will be the maximum total tax amount minus the accummulated tax amounts of the previous items.
