Definition

Tax indicator for material.

Use

The tax indicator is used in the automatic determination of the tax code in Purchasing.

The tax code can be determined automatically within the framework of price determination (via the conditions).
Tax indicators are used to facilitate this process. They can be derived from the material master record, Customizing, or the purchasing document. The system determines the tax code from the combination of these tax indicators.

Example

Automatic determination of the tax code is useful, for example, if different tax rates apply depending on whether a material is placed in stock or consumed directly.


Dependencies

If the tax code can be determined automatically via conditions, it takes precedence over the tax code that has been maintained in the purchasing info record.
