Determine different Ctry/Rgn Sls Tax No in Billing document

[maugustin]

Hello,

our company is located in AT and some customers from Germany for example, have an Austrian VAT ID. If we create a bill for such customers we must print the AT VAT number on the billing form. Now we are facing the issue that the system does not derive the Austrian VAT ID. When I open the billing document I can see that the "Ctry/Rgn Sls Tax No" is DE. From my perspective this should be AT to get the correct VAT ID.

We create the billing documents per API from an external system. When I have checked the fields in the WSDL field I did not find any field for the "Ctry/Rgn Sls Tax No".

In the configuration I found the task "Maintain Determination of Value-Added Tax Registration Number" but it did not really solve my problem.

Thank´s for your help.

Hi Mona,

How are you doing? Please check: 872449 - Tax determination in Sales and Distribution.

b) Destination country

The tax destination country is initially determined based on the country of the Ship-to Party. This automatically determined destination country can also be changed in the sales and distribution document header in the billing view. However, this discrepant destination country is required for special processes in the EU. The manual entry takes priority.

In case you have further questions, could you please let us know the Scope item being refered on your process?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Pedro

Hi Pedro,

thank you for the information, we are using the scope item AT_1Z6 and sending billing documents from an external system to our S/4 HANA Cloud system (SOAP API billingdocumentrequest_in).

Here we have the issue that there is no possibility to send the Ctry/Rgn Sls Tax No and we there is also no way to change the billing document manually, because it is automatically posted.

If you have any further questions, let me know.

Hi Mona,

In case you are following SAP Best Practice Scope Item and system does not automatically derive the Austrian VAT ID as it should, please raise a Support Case to check your issue in detail. Please provide a CB User credential and the Steps to reproduce your issue as detailed as you can.

I hope we can help you with that.
