Syncrhonize B1 items into Customer Checkout without VAT code (tax rate type code missing)

[ogonzale]

Hello, community, I am trying to connect SAP Business One to Customer Checkout. I'm facing a problem regarding article syncrhonization. My Business One localization is Mexico and there is no VAT code field (TaxCodeAR in OITM) in item master data. Hence I'm getting the error "tax rate type code missing". I have tried to update this field using DTW and DI API but I had no success. In Customer Checkout I have selected Mexico as country as well. Is there a way to syncrhonize products without VAT code?

Kind regards

At the end it was necessary to check the "IEPS Payer" configuration in Company Details and the "IEPS" checkbox in Item Master Data in order to display the Sales Tax Code input in Sales Data.

Dear ogonzale,

I also provided some insight on that topic in a former community question:

It shows some alternative ways to overcome this issue.

Best regards,

Hello Óscar,

In the standard solution, SAP Customer Checkout fetches the Sales Tax Code from the field VatGourpSa or TaxCodeAR of table OITM.

In Mexico localization, where does VAT information is stored?

It is not possible to synchronize articles without the VAT Code.
Refer to SAP Note #2163033 and check the history of the version 3.7.85
