Documentation

Definition

The tax code is used as a substitute tax category which must be taken into consideration when reporting tax to the tax authorities.

Tax codes are unique for each country. The tax rate and other characteristics are entered in the system for each tax code.

Use

This tax code is needed for posting the input tax of the document.

Procedure

In the case of tax-free or non-taxable transactions, tax codes with a percentage of 0 are to be used if the transactions in question are to be listed in the tax returns.

Note

If changes are made to tax rates in legislation, you must define new tax codes. You must keep the old codes with the old rates until there are no more open items which contain these tax codes.
