BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST: tax rate!

Former Member — Mon, 15 May 2006 13:15:19 GMT

I'm posting an invoice by using the BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST. What I see now is that I cannot give in a tax rate for a certain tax code that is different from the one that is in SAP. The BAPI derives the tax rate based on the tax code, but it does not looks at the field "tax rate" in the tax amount structure in this BAPI.

Example:

Tax code 71 - 7,6%. This is stored in SAP (ftxp-transaction)
BAPI: tax code: 71 and on the rate, I enter 7,5%.
BSET table after posting invoice via the BAPI: field Percent: 7,6%

It must be possible to enter a rate that is different from the one in SAP doesn't it?!

That a posting has to be made on the tax code 71 (and the account that is linked with this tax code), but today, the rate is slightly different for example.

Is is not possible?

Thx in advance

I am not sure, but probably that is not possible. In our project we are using the same thing, and the rate is taken from tax code (as defined in FTXP). But tell me one thing, as far as I know, tax rate is not like currency exchange rate which fluctuates. It is fixed and once defined, the rate for a tax code should not be changed. Isn't that the case in yours?

Yes, that is the case.

But it was just that the tax rate was wrongly derived from the system settings. Wanted to test by giving in a different rate.

Problem solved: we have 1 tax code with 2 tax rates which were posted onto one account.

We made it like this: 1 tax code, 2 tax rates, each one posted to different account + Changed "condition type"
