GST_State Code

[Former Member]

Hello,

In Customer Master Data,the region tab is defined as per SAP but as per GST law the state code is different & the state code is mandatory in the Invoice printing. So how can we correct this state code in SAP as per GST law.

Is there any Patch or solution?

It's not an easy solution to create the new state code from transaction OVK2 or in view V_T005S.

State code creation is very easy, but then you need to change all existing plants, vendors, customers, condition records and all other addresses to the new state code which is exist in your SAP system with old region code.

Most of clients are taking this solution : Create a Z table with the mapping of SAP state code and Gov. state code and print it accordingly in your smartform. Even when you will file GSTR, you also need to give the Gov. state code.

Please note: This is a custom solution to achieve this without doing huge work.

Change the state code in OVK2. Update only state name text with respect to GST. Ensure existing region codes entered documents to be changed.
